Thursday Night #11

Korean Mans Vest
The vest was made in Korean in 1927 for men to wear under their really nice suits so the fabric would not touch the body and the sweat would not get onto the clothes. It is made out of thin bamboo wire and it is very fragile looking. There are also cuff guards. 

I believe this could continue to influence culture in the sense of creation. Who wants to sweat on their nice clothes? Who wants to have to wash something over and over again and wear out a very nice piece of clothing? No one. I believe this could influence someone to create something similar to this, but more modern.
