Interest X-Wing Pilot Flak Vest Locks

[Corellianexports]

I am getting ready to make a bulk purchase of these. The last time I did a run, the price was $8 per set of 2 plus shipping. I will try to keep it around that price if possible.

If any one is interested in purchasing a set, please post a reply with the number of sets you're interested in purchasing.

I will also be picking up some of the belt buckles that go on the back of the vest, so if any one is interested in those, also post a reply. Those are usually priced at around $1 or $2. Thanks

That is true.... from a certain point of view. Since the vest is worn with the buckle in the front in The Empire Strikes Back, it would be considered a front buckle.

However when you consider the correct way this found item is meant to be worn, the buckle is indeed a back buckle.

It should also be noted for those building a vest that the preproduction stills of the x-wing costume such as the on pictured above from the visual dictionary, Luke is wearing it with the buckle in front. It should also be noted that these photos have a lot of other inaccuracies when compared to the way the costume appeared on screen. Therefore use caution when utilizing them for references.
