Title: Old school mossy oak vest
Post by: bigbird on June 17, 2013, 10:17:50 AM
I've got this old turkey vest that I've had since I started turkey hunting! Bought it new back in probably '93, it's a mossy oak brand USA made vest, what's something like this worth?

It depends on the size and condition.  Some of the old Mossy Oak original vest (like that one) didn't have many features so it won't be as valuable as a Dixon vest.  This site or e-bay would be your target market for something like that.  If it's in good condition, I'll buy it from you as I'm a big fan of that Greenleaf pattern.

The vest itself is in mint condition, I did have one of the tags with the button for the cushion sewn back on with spider wire! My guess is if you took the vest and put it in a washing machine it would look brand spanking new. I only used it a few times back then since I was young and in school back then!

I got one just like it, and I still use it every year when the temps starts to rise during the late season. Like its been said, they are not as pocket friendly as the new vest's on the market, and the cushion is pretty much worthless, but the pattern goes great with mid to late spring foliage.

I have one, except it has matching camo straps, and would be surprised if someone offered more than I stated.  I guess I underestimate the novelty aspect.
