Umpiresrock74 Posted July 14 Report Posted July 14 Hey guys, so I made a decision, and I think I got spammed. I bought an Original Wilson West Vest Douglas for $35. Did I pay too much??? It's in great condition, but I think I might have payed to much for it... if your still reading, this is a joke. Seriously though, bought a freakin awesome Original Wilson West Vest Douglas for $35, steal!!!! 1 1 Quote

A Douglas or Wilson? 1 Quote

West Vest is not a term coined by Wilson. West Vest is a trademark of Joe West. Wilson and Douglas never had a partnership. When Joe West started designing CPs he originally went to Douglas to have them produced. Joe West’s partnership with Douglas ended and he then took the “West Vest” Trademark to Wilson and produced the Vintage West Vest by Wilson. That CP was the predecessor to the Wilson Gold we have now. That being said you got a great deal on a really nice CP! Enjoy! 2 Quote
