Lee Alex’s Color Change Vest.
The vest is one of extreme quality and attention to detail is second to none. This is a professional prop designed to enhance your magic. I just finished a practice session and have to say it was a lot of fun. Now you will be doing the quick change right away it is straight forward and the instructions are clear. I was working without the jacket to start. I found this an easy start for me. The change looks amazing and it is almost startling when done in front of the mirror. I was very surprised how quickly no pun intended, how I got this to look with the umbrella routine. Tommy Ng's video is really nice to see for this change. I just want to say that if you are looking for some magic eye candy this vest is for you. Lee is wonderful to deal with and was a great help in answering my questions. Also you get your order in three days now that is fast. With the recent Quick change Artists featured on America’s got Talent. My brother-in-law asked me how they do that. Well not long before I can send a clip of myself doing some magic. magicmike30 Mike

Thank you Mike for the kind words! I must say you were a great customer to correspond with too
I am pleased that you are getting along just fine with this. As for the three days delivery, it really depends where you are. I have had deliveries to London and Spain go in just two days; other countries further away have had difficulties, although I don't think anyone has had to wait longer than a week. The vest is currently still out of stock (apart from a handful of Union jack (British) flag designs. Production has started on the second batch and these should be finished by the end of the month (fingers crossed!). To ensure delivery on time any orders placed now can be tagged on to this production, as I don't know when the next batch will be produced. If you get a video up Mike, then I would love to see this too. |

Hey Lee,
I finally got a chance to play with the vest I received from you last month. I am very impressed. I agree wholeheartedly with the comments from Magicmike30. In fact, looking over the vest, the first two thoughts that came to mind were: 1. This is serious quality. Not just a quick or flimsy product, but something that I believe will work like a charm for many years to come. 2. What a fun prop! Just playing with it was a blast. I heartily recommend this to anyone who wants to incorporate an easy but very visual costume change into their act. Rick |

Although I have had the colour changing waist coat for a while I have only just had a chance to play with it. I think it is great one of those item you need to learn the nack to but within 20 minute of play we have been able to do the change consitantly in 2.5 second if its your style well worth it

Hi Robert,
When you say you can do the change consistantly in 2.5 seconds, are you talking aboput one change or all the changes? I would be interested to find out! |

I had to resurrect this thread because I am very close to buying myself this for Christmas.
Are there any purchasers who use this table to table?I perform 5 nights a week and I would like to use this item as long as it does not inhibit me from performing my other routines. Thanks for any info. Best. Rich |

LeeAlex2002 Inner circle 1007 Posts |
Hi Rich,
The vest can be worn for table t table work with a jacket on. There is nothing to spoil the set-up of the vest/color changes. You jut wear and away you go. You can still load the pockets of your jacket with your other props to perform. The vest itself does not have pockets. I can't imagine any way that this could inhibit performance as you just wear the vest like a normal item of clothing. |

I just want to comment that the vest as sold by Lee Alex is superior to any of the 'knock offs" being sold. I bought a knock off one made in China(thinking I was buying the Lee Alex vest) from Mad Hatter. Although I have never gotten anything from Mad Hatter I didn't like before, I found this vest really didn't work at all. It was to small (even though it was supposed to be Extra Large) and (without giving it away) what made the vest color changes did not work right! Mad Hatter did take it back and I buy Alex' vest which was FAR superior. Thanks Alex

Thank you Conrad.
Ihave since been in contact with Mad Hatter Magic (in the US) and although they have not removed the copy product, the copy is now credited to another person. Buyer beware, the cheap version is not original, and as Tennispro says above, the cheap vest is smaller in size, and the gimmicks do not work. I was given another copy vest by a magician friend. This too was made in China. The size was a lot smaller (the vest came only down to above my belly button/navel), and the gimmicks used in the vest are different from those which I supply in the original. I have seen other copy vests on the web too, one version doesn't even have the buttons and button holes on the vest! Incredible! Maybe I should start adopting Losander's principle and begin to gather the copy versions. I have had numerous complaints from customers who believe they have bought my original item, only to find that the copy vests are far too small, or do not work at all. I know the color of every single vest that I have produced (including the custom ones). The original vest has NEVER been produced in the standard four colors of red, yellow, green and blue! |

I have just been over to the Mad Hatter magic site again.
Read the small print: Quote:
Besides magic and clown supplies Mad Hatter also has a great selection of Halloween Masks and costumes like pirate costumes! I can see the irony in this statement, but at least they admit they are selling copies! |

A news custom waistcoat. This one changes from black to black and white polka dots to black and white stripes to black and white stars! (notice all original products have the magic2wear label!) |

I have once again been contacted by a member here on the Magic Café who has been stung by Mad Hatter.
Please be aware that Bill at Mad Hatter is selling the original Color Change Vest AND a cheap copy by a certain David Chen. The price of the Chinese copy fluctuates (I guess due to exchange rates, although a difference of up to $20.00 USD is a huge fluctuation percentage wise). If you order from Mad Hatter please make your selection carefully. Unfortunately I cannot be responsible for a cheap product that does not do the job, as I have nothing to do with production of this copy. Please refer your complaints back to Bill at Mad Hatter, not to me through PM here. Thank you for your understanding. |
