The Heritage Cotton Down Vest is a lightweight cold-weather layer built to keep the core warm without restricting movement. It doubles as a stand-alone outer layer in cold, dry conditions or insulating layer under a rain jacket when the weather turns.The cotton shell is treated with a custom wash that captures the feel of vintage pieces from our archive. Inside, down insulation provides warmth with minimal weight. A two-way front zipper allows for easy adjustment when sitting or bending.Quick-dry synthetic insulation lines the hand pockets to keep hands warm while reducing bulk at the front of the vest. The ribbed collar helps seal in heat, and the clean hem keeps the profile straightforward and easy to layer under outerwear.
