The image shows a beige riding vest. The vest is made of a thick fabric and has a V-shaped neckline. It is fastened with six white buttons down the center front. There are two pockets on either side, each with a flap covering the opening. The vest appears to be slightly stained and worn, with some discoloration visible. The background of the image is black.
