Down Sweater Vest and Womens Down Sweater Vest

The Sweater Vest is is exactly what you’d expect – a sleeveless and hoodless version of the Down Sweater Hoody. It packs down super small into its zippered chest pocket and it hasn’t lost the zippered hand pockets, from which you can tighten the hem drawcord – a nice little thought. The armholes are bound with elasticated nylon to prevent heat loss. This is a great, packable choice for days when a jacket is just too much.
