♛These unworn women's 1940s Canadian-knit wool vests are ideal in a versatile navy blue. And we have MULTIPLES of them to share!

Each vest carries one of three different labels, but all are identical in style and color. Knit-to-Fit, Eaton's (a Canadian department store), and Regent Knit Fashions.

V-neck with a cute cut, ribbed knit design, and nipped wasp waist. Nice thin knit that layers over and under stuff beautifully, providing cozy insulation warmth. Wear alone as a top or layer up. How often do you see deadstock 40s knits? Be the first to enjoy!

Each is an individual piece in the same style and color as example. 

Please read sizing information and then choose your vest from the drop-down menu.

♛Condition

Great vintage shape. Unworn/deadstock vintage with tags attached. 80+ years old.

Due to their age it's reasonable to say that there might be a rare tiny imperfection, easy to overlook, but we do check our deadstock collections closely, piece by piece, and remove anything with overt issues.

They have been stored, time capsule-like, for decades and will benefit from a dry clean or hand wash before you wear them the first time. We will lint roll each piece before shipping. They can be cleaned and cared for just like modern woolens.

Return & Refund Policy

Vintage is sold as-is and all sales are final. All vintage garments will show signs of previous wear and use, including deadstock and unworn pieces. We take extra care to note and/or photograph any imperfections we find. You can read our thousands of happy reviews on Etsy and eBay for an idea of the quality and high standards we strive to keep.
