Screen used hero equestrian leather vest. Overall in good condition with some wear from its days on the movie set. All the snaps and the zipper work.It is a little dirty as it has never been cleaned.

This version is longer and has two additional sections as compared to the vest for the foot soldiers and snaps in the back so it will fall over the back of the horse saddle.
