I know Yacko had mentioned that he and at least 1 other person were interested. I bought the Rugby wool glen plaid vest, like this one:

Very similar, but I can't find the glen plaid one anymore. The construction is quite nice. 100% wool on the front in a chunky tweed-like knit. The back of the vest is tan 100% cotton. The fit is where there is an issue. Not athletic shape here, mostly a square. I am 6' and 185lb athletic build. I wear a 40R jacket and 32w on pants. The medium fit me well in the chest but was too baggy in the middle, even cinched. For the price I got on it, I would pay to have it tailored, but it is about 1/2"-1" too short for me, IMO.
Thus, it's a great looking vest with high quality materials. I had high hopes, but if you are a bit taller and more of an athletic shape, I would save your money unless the S would fit you in the chest.
I am a vest fan, if anyone has a good source for a similar style (more fall-oriented) that would be great.
