The silhouette is fitted, long and lean, with a deep vent in back.

Western patch pockets extend up and onto waistband to form wide belt loops in front, set off by small button tabs set into the sideseam. Typical patch pockets in back, and again accented with contrast stitching.

FABRIC/COLORS: The fabric is a slightly brushed denim - tag describes the color as "Midnite". It's not as dark as a modern dark wash, and color is uniform. Content label says it's 65% cotton, 35% polyester. The contrast stitching is that orangey shade of brown that was used on Levi jeans for many years, an excellent match for the buttons.

CLOSURES: The vest closes with five plastic faux wrapped leather buttons down the front, in a warm shade of cognac brown. The jacket closes with two larger versions of the same buttons. Pants have an embossed metal snap at the waist, and a 7" metal talon zipper.
CONDITION: I do not believe the suit has ever been worn, and I do not see any issues related to storage either.
