Living here in Chicago is great. But one of the things I very much miss about the South is the ability to walk outside in a limited amount of layers without freezing my ass off. I mean, I know locals up here will tell you that it’s been a “mild” winter so far, but I’m not feeling the same way about it. I’m cold, and I can’t go outside with these temps without being dressed like this kid. So, as I was saying, I miss the weather where I could walk outside with a sweater and a vest layered over it, and be just fine. While I should be worrying about something more substantial and warm, I keep going back to shopping around for a new vest. Whether it’s a puffer, quilted or even fleece, I’m a big fan of them. Below are few of my current favorites…
Billy Reid… on sale!
Suitsupply: Looks great over or under a sport coat.
“Fratagonia“… An old college favorite.
Barbour Down Insulated Vest… How could I not include a Babour (or two, see below)?
Barbour Dunmoor… I’ve wanted this vest for quite some time now.
This Buffalo Jackson vest seems like a great deal… Thanks to Caroline and Mark for the heads up!
While they won’t keep me warm enough on their own up here, still quite perfect for me!
