I found this on the floor under a rack at Salvation Army Store. I saw the fringe sticking out, reached down to kindly put it back on the rack, and look what I pulled out! Well, as you can see, it didn't make it back to the rack, it 'fell' in to my basket and came home to live with me. It's all suede and none of the fringes are torn or missing. It has a couple of grunge spots on the seams, but that's ok with me. Sort of adds to the rough character of the vest. It's rather heavy too. I set my camera on a timer and speed shots and just started spinning around in a circle to capture the swing of the fringe. I'll bet each one is 12-15 inches long. The most fascinating thing about this vest besides the fringe, is that it cost $2.99.
Like this...it has flare...a lot of work went into this lil' hippie, leather fringe, vest...awesome !! I'm thinking..." Woodstock "
