This Rocky Mountain Featherbed Christy Vest in Black is constructed from a 70-denir original nylon taffeta that's been developed by meticulously studying and recreating that of vintage outdoors garments. This nylon taffeta works like down packs, enabling the tri-layered structure of [fabric/down/fabric], that significantly lightens the garment while also improving insulation. A water-repellent down has also been used, allowing for excellent temperature retention even in wet weather. It's finished off with two double-layered hand warmer pockets, a zipped inner chest pocket and leather yoke that combines tanned leather with tannin and chrome.
