Quality Analysis 80/100

This Alexander McQueen vest, crafted from a mid-weight wool and mohair-blend, features durable horn buttons, suggesting a thoughtful approach to quality. While the fabric is non-stretchy, its composition and the brand's reputation for luxury indicate a garment designed for lasting wear.
