Up Vest

“In this day and age, an outdoor vest that’s not full of feathers is down-right distinguished. We thought of calling ours the No-Down vest, but that sounded like a real estate deal. We’d rather dwell on the uplifting qualities of brushed cotton twill, the wool-knit collar and waistband, teh cabin-cozy flannel lining. Filled with thermal insulation and stitched in the classic diamond pattern favored by sportsmen and Appalachian grandmothers, it’s never let us down.”
