Classic, heavyweight fleece gilet
When it comes to layering, versatility is key. The Sherpa Bhutan Vest is a classic heavyweight fleece gilet, the sort of garment that easily does double-duty as a cold-weather midlayer and a casual bodywarmer. So, even if you’re not out on the hills, the Bhutan’s easy-wearing style and soft, comfortable fabric makes it a great piece to wear everyday too. But that’s not to say it doesn’t deliver technical performance when needed. After all, this vest is named after the landlocked mountain kingdom of Bhutan, found high in the Himalayas, to the northeast of India. This points to the brand’s authentic high-altitude heritage, so this vest’s two-sided brushed anti-pill polyester fleece delivers a big dose of soft, cosy warmth. Forward set shoulder seams ensure no chafing even when wearing a pack, while a full zip provides ventilation.
