The official BMG "Hold Everything" Waistcoat (aka "the all-new, Brian May, gender-fluid, everything-pocketed waistcoat"!) combines the maestro's artistic flair, his consummate rock and roll style, and a unique celebration of the entire family of Brian May Guitars instruments.
Designed to "keep all your life support essentials on your person" this stylish and functional, open-fronted garment sports a rugged 100% cotton build and renders man-bags and hand-bags redundant with a voluminous quartet of safe and secure, button-down pockets for phones, keys, wallets, cameras, sunglasses, pill-boxes, pens, make-up, lip balm, OWL stereo viewers... plus one extra special "Pick Pocket" dedicated for sixpence coins, naturally!
Best of all, the BMG Waistcoat is completely reversible
Choose from stealth black, with pockets front and centre, or fly the Brian May Guitars flag proudly, pockets and valuables concealed, with an exclusive bright and bold design featuring the united colours of BMG - because it doesn't have to be red to be special!
100% Cotton Canvas / 100% Cotton In-LiningThis exclusive tailored garment is available in Small, Medium, Large, X-Large and XX-Large. PLEASE CHECK THE SIZE CHART CAREFULLY FOR APPROXIMATE GARMENT DIMENSIONS AND THE BEST FIT

A very handy product for those situations where you need multiple pockets to store items. As well as storing all things guitar related,like picks, coins and small wrenches, or screwdrivers, it could be used for fishing and general DIY wear.I would advise purchasing the larger sizes if you are used to wearing anything from a Large up... It would seem that a 2XL is equal to an XL or even a large from many brands, so go one bigger than norm.

Thank you so much for the fantatstic feedback and the buying advice, Jonathan. To get the perfect fit, we always recommend that customers check the size guide provided for this highly tailored garment.
Very disappointed in the size of this waistcoat. It is not very big for a XXL. I am also still miffed that this size can NOT be bought on Queen Online like ALL the other sizes! Forcing me to pay £10 more and a higher postage.
As described, this is a *highly* tailored garment and we strongly recommend that customers carefully review the dimensions provided to find the perfect fit.We have no association with the Queen Online store and no influence over what product variants they stock.
As a photographer, I absolutely LOVE this waistcoat and all the pockets! I ordered mine as soon as they came out. I don't leave for a shoot without it... during the months of October through March. But, as I live in a warmer climate, it is too heavy and dark for the summer and warmer months. It would be wonderful if this item could also be offered in khaki or a lighter color, in a bit lighter-weight fabric. I'd snap one up immediately. Thanks for considering it.
Something very special for "on stage" and also just to be dressed in a modern and special way! Perfect fit and amazing quality - both sides, one black in jeans design - one with all the RED SPECIALS - print in every colours .... very nice!! Highly recommended... best wishes - Mandy
Love the waistcoat, but size indication is rather small. Usually being an L, I ordered an XL to be on the safe side, but even this is a tight fit.
Quality of the material seems excellent. I have not worn in yet as I have not washed it yet. Hopefully it does not shrink like the guitar shirt.
It is a good product with very careful sewing, but I think it is easier to wear if the length is a little shorter.
I love this waistcoat! It is comfy and really does have enough pockets to hold everything. I took it on a recent trip and it was nice to have my hands free and just relax with everything secure in the coat. I couldn't believe how quickly it got here. Ordered on Monday and it made it to the USA by Friday!
When I recieved it and put it on immediately, it was just the right size, though it was a little long. I'm very happy. Thank You!
Very well made and does hold everything.
I'm a woman who is 160cm (5'4") height, bought a small size one. It's totally fit, the shoulder length is long a bit to me.This is the very well-made product. the stitch is beautiful. the clear outline covers my trunk shape. These are the useful functions of different size pockets, open-front style, mandarin collar. I always wear this black side out, lay the collar down to show inside beautiful original print of BMG. My small size one weighs only 430g. It's comfortable. I think our pal's dog and cat hair love to stick on black side.This waistcoat has more value than its price.Very thank you for jolly shopping.
I'm happy to be matching clothes with Brian!!! This waistcoat is so cute! If I must say, it's a little long for my height (153cm) 😅
The concept and styling are great. The quality and fit, however, could use some tweaking. I'm 5' 10", 190 pounds and wear a size 42 jacket. So I ordered the waistcoat in X large. It fit fine everywhere except the arm holes which were (really) too small and had to be altered before I could wear it. Also, the pockets use a snap button system and the first time I tried to close and open one, it broke. Those snap buttons are notorious for not lasting. I think a conventional slit and button system (like on a shirt) would last and be easy to use. There is no tag on the waistcoat to indicate what material its made of, but I assume cotton. That's important for dry cleaning information and for ironing (it wrinkles very easy so ironing might be advisable it you want to look your best!). Again, overall I love the waistcoat but would happily have paid as much as 1.5 times the price for slightly better quality. I'm up for more BMG clothing items - ball cap and a shorter vest would on my short list.
I really like the style and versatility. I am a pretty average-sized guy, but I always buy XXL because I like somewhat longer tops. Unfortunately, even the XXL size had arm cuts that were extremely tight and uncomfortable, even wearing only a light dress shirt. I’m not sure I will be able to wear it unless I have it tailored.
The size I wanted arrived! The vest is of great quality - I will love this outfit for a long time!Thank you so much!
