A missed opportunity
What a missed opportunity... After many years waiting for a new Covert vest (love the old model), it disappoints in many ways: the fit is too boxy and the contrasting chest pocket with front logo is ugly and unnecessary —it spoils the nice, clean, streamlined look it used to have and that it could've had. I suggest putting the logo back in the back and getting rid of the chest pocket ugly contrasting "patch". Will keep waiting for a revised version that I do want to wear.
