Absolutely authentic vest from the show. Got “Angel Wing” patches made by a woman in Colorado and it looks dead spot on as Daryl’s vest. Worth the price, you can find 50% code online and add it to final checkout, equals out around $112 instead of $140 something. Little bit of a wait when you buy it on the west coast. Faster arrival time on East coast. The vests come out of Chicago area. Have fun cosplayers!
