Elio Vest Top

This vest leans into a modern Western vernacular, utilizing a sharp, V-cut hem and high-contrast paneling to mimic the structural precision of a traditional waistcoat. The bone-toned twill is anchored by dark faux suede side panels detailed with industrial-style studs, creating a graphic frame around the torso. It sits close to the body with tailored intent, trading heritage softness for a rigid, urbanized silhouette.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The garment is primarily constructed from polyester-based twill and faux suede, both of which are petroleum-derived synthetics that offer minimal breathability and potential for skin irritation. The presence of elastane and synthetic lining further increases the plastic content, which can trap sweat and heat against the skin.
