The down vest is like the Swiss Army Knife of outerwear. You can layer it over a sweater or under a coat, and the freedom of movement it provides is a great thing — especially on days when you’re working outside or commuting by bike. In pursuit of that cold-weather versatility, Todd pulled together all the design details from his favorite vintage puffers into this Corduroy Down Vest. The exterior is a quilted Italian corduroy from the famed Duca Visconti, filled with genuine duck down for warmth and lined in nylon. A two-way zipper and concealed snaps make it a breeze to put on over a sport coat or hoodie.
Nestled in the foothills of the Italian Alps, Duca Visconti has been making corduroy, velvet and other exceptionally well-crafted fabrics for nearly 200 years.
