Vests are a kind of shirt
No. This is a common misconception. Vests actually evolved separately from shirts in an example of convergent evolution. Their nearest common ancestor was the jumpsuit, which also spawned the lineage of what are now pants. Interesting, a subgroup of proto-vests became isolated in the southern region, and eventually evolved into chaps.
I know this is a joke, but there's no way a full body suit predates vests as a clothing item. You can make a rough vest without sewing, not the case for a whole connected outside with tubes for arms and legs.
The real story is that westerners were inspired by persian style waistcoats, then modified to fit more common clothing to their area, making the vest
We need a dewey decimal system for clothing in order to clarify this taxonomy
