Authentic April 1988 Carhartt 8SVT denim work vest, featuring a warm sherpa lining and classic snap-front construction. This is a true late-80s Carhartt piece, made in the USA and labeled Large Tall, though it measures closer to a modern Medium fit. Built from heavyweight blue denim with reinforced seams and functional patch pockets, this vest was designed for cold-weather layering on job sites and in workshops.
This piece is being sold AS-IS due to red discoloration on the front, as shown in the photos. The discoloration does not affect wearability or structure and adds to the authentic workwear patina. Otherwise in solid vintage condition with honest wear for its age.
