[edit] Context and Controversy
Historically, flannel vests were regarded as a status symbol in some regions of United States, Canada, and the Soviet Union.
This trend was re-ignited in the 1920s, when the flannel vest phenomenon was re-ignited in South Carolina.
Ellen DeGeneres caused controversy in Arkansas in the late 1980's when she suggested the Flannel vest be banned.
