Howdy folks. I was always sorry I didn't get one of the original vests, so this is good news :^) However, that vest looks like a sweater with the arms cut off and the holes hemmed. It doesn't appear to fit at all in the shoulders. Also, I would have liked to see the pockets. They are handly for a wallet or keys, even if the bike has a bag of some sort. It isn't like having a/pocket(s) makes it hideous off the bike. Being a cyclist, I don't mind if my stuff looks a bit "bikey".
