So I am at this friends house and he told me he got some old maiden merch he wanted to give me. A shirt and this thing I don't know how it's called. Both I find very strange and never seen before... Guess bootlegs. BOucht in the mid 90's by him. Might know more?? Emedietly uploaded it cuz i'm curious :P
I personally think the back isn't pretty either.. yeah that front..... Without doubt the ugliest piece of Maiden merch I own hahahahha. couldn't agree more.
early 90s mid 90s u got a lot of stuff like this, not only from Maiden, also Metallica, Pantera, AC/DC etc. 99% thats all bootlegs. and when i look at the back of this 'jacket' (sorry dont know the correct word in english for it) - its a bootleg :) We all know how the original artwork look like :) But funny and strange (at the same time) stuff :P
That's not necessarily true - you wouldn't call a sleeveless shirt a vest - It would be any "Outerwear" without sleeves is generally referred to as a vest
Are you kidding me? I think the front design looks fucking awesome ;) The back looks cool but the contrast is too big.
Wouldn't really go out on the streets with this thing though lol :P
Haha :D Well, if I get it as a gift when i wear it one whole day on the streets....Yes I I'll do it !! XD Just because i never saw this before and It'll be nice for my collection. I'm a BIG Maiden fan so I do crazy things for stuff like that. You get 5 flames for it !!!

This would actually be pretty cool but... the front side is so ugly I cannot even find words to describe it :D

It's an strange thing (don't know english word either) indeed... I WILL NEVER WEAR THIS. But it's an funny thing to own.

in german language we call it 'Gilet'..its a french word for 'Vest/Jacket' ..but sleeveless.
At least..thats what Wikipedia says :P
VoodooChild
Same as in Dutch.
Dave Quincy Punx on
The English word is vest. Anything you wear on your upper body that has no sleeves is a vest.
I should say American English. Full flames btw.

thx for advice dude! :) Stupid german language...3+ words for 1 stupid thing...
VoodooChild
Thnx for both the explaination and the flames man!

in dutch a vest means a zipped hoodie.
makes it really confusing.
