Sleeveless Perfecto-style jacket/vest

I know Lost Worlds now offers these… and they’re gorgeous, but I can’t justify the price! Anyone else do these?

Failing that, does anyone know of some who who could remove the sleeves of an old Perfecto sourced for that purpose?

Just buy one with wrecked sleeves for cheap then cut them off. @Monitor did this.

What @Aloysius says. Paying for a Cross zipper vest would be burning money. It is one of the simplest alteration you can make on a jacket. Simply buy the cheapest cross zip you can find and either cut off the sleeves or unsew them.
