Taking inspiration from pre-fall’s shearling outerwear trend, an oversized vest gets added heft from Universal Yarn’s pure wool Deluxe Worsted held double throughout. Reversible two-color patterning at the waistband and lapels allows for versatile styling, while marled texture at the side panels blends the shades of silver and slate to create textural contrast. Deep side pockets worked into the waistband add a rugged note.

Colorways used are #12503 charcoal leather (A) and #12502 smoke heather (B).
