CosplayskyMen's Halloween Vest for Solo Costume Belt Compatible Droid Caller Canister

I have researched a lot of Han Solo vests and I'm glad I settled on this one. This is a well made vest and is quite screen accurate. The stitching is good and it is solidly built. It is lightweight but not a flimsy, paper-thin garment you typically think of with costume clothing. Its quality makes it good for everyday wear. So far this is the best Han Solo vest within the 'affordable' category.The material is a lightweight, cotton twill. The product description says, 'cotton canvas' but it is not canvas. It is a twill weave, which is what Han Solo's vest should be anyway. The tag on the inside of the vest says, '100% polyester' but that might refer to the vest's polyester lining. The actual shell of the vest feels like cotton. As mentioned before the vest is fully lined with a polyester satin.All the pockets are functional including the large cargo pocket on the lower back. The four, front pockets are gusseted for extra expansion. There are no pockets on the inside of the vest.There is no front closure on this vest; no zipper, no buttons, no velcro. Han Solo's movie vest is meant to be worn open with no closure so this vest stays true to that detail.Based on the sizing chart I fell on the border between x-small & small. I took a chance and ordered the x-small and I'm glad I did. I hope to shed some light on the measurements for others looking to buy this vest. Here are my body measurements:Gender: MaleHeight: 5'7Weight: 142 lbsChest: 40"Waist: 30"Body Type: Slim with lean, athletic buildVest Size: Extra SmallThis x-small vest fits slightly snug under my armpits but it is not tight or uncomfortable. The fit is fine everywhere else. I took accurate measurements of the vest and made a picture for those interested.The length of this vest is about 2 inches longer than the screen version of Han Solo's vest. Han's movie vest is short and doesn't reach his pant's belt but this vest ends at the bottom of my belt. However, you can fold the hem under itself and sew it shorter. That will shorten it by 1.5 inches.There is some confusion with other reviews as to whether the vest runs large or small. If you are on the border between sizes on the chart and unsure which size to get, this is my theory...If you are a slim / skinny / lean body type go for the smaller of the two size options. If you are bulky muscular / thicker / chubby go for the larger of the two size options. Hope this helps!

Could tell it was made well, but the size was just off. I went by the sizing chart and I was right on the cusp of Lg/XL. Years ago I ordered a vest for a Han Solo costume from ebay and after using their chart (was on the cusp of M/L) and ordered one too small, so I ordered the XL this time and it was just way too big to look right on me at all. If you can go either way it seems like you should pick the smaller one.

BEAUTIFUL + STURDYTo be honest, I am quite surprised how nice this is.EVERY pocket is functional, 2 huge lower front pockets with flaps, 1 big upper left pocket with flap, 1 angled but deep front pocket on the upper rightAND 1 enormous pocket in the back. Even the very HanSolo vertical patterns on the back are open (not pockets but you could put a poster tube in there (if you secured it somehow)The inside is lined and because it's polyester it feels sturdy and hangs perfectly.I LOVE that there's no front closure, it's heavy wrinkle proof polyester, and of course the iconic lack of collar makes the vest hang really nicelyThis is NOT cheap material, nor is it cheaply made - this is NOT a costume.I might buy another one just to wear every day (and I wear my stuff hard)

This is a great vest. The material is perfect and the quality is great. I feel like I could wear this all the time without worrying about it wearing out.The biggest challenge I've found purchasing items like this is getting the right size. I find myself being stuck between L and XL most of the time. I have 16" neck, 20" shoulders, 44" chest and 40" waist (though my 36" jeans fit comfortably lol). I was afraid the large would be too small so I ordered XL. The XL is just a bit roomy for me and it's possible the large would have been a better fit, but overall I'm happy with what I got.

Fits better than expected. I am a solid men's medium (5'-9" 174lbs) and this fit just a little loose and an inch or so past my waist. I was expecting a snug fit, based on another vendor's vest I received from overseas. So, this is a US sized garment. Very well made and lined as well.

It's perfect! I wasn't expecting poor quality, but its high quality pleasantly surprised me. Fits like most standard US medium sizing, almost exactly how my eddie bauer and columbia men's soft shell jackets in the same size fit in the torso (for reference).

Much better option for han solo costume than any of the other ones available on here. You're much better off making it yourself. So this vest is great. I do love all the functional pockets.

Very small. My 36" waist husband couldn't fit in it but I'm going to sew an extension to the back since we are running out of time. Not worth the money, make it yourself.

Fantastic quality, lined and well made. This is an excellent reproduction of Han Solo's vest from A New Hope. Its very comfortable and all the pockets are functional.
