    Default Vests....

    I live in Nor. Calif. and in the winter a vest is often comfortable as a primary outer layer. I have an assortment of older fleece vests that are looking tired. I would like a stylish merino or soft wool vest that does not look like I am going fishing or hunting. My default at this point is the Ibex Scout

    Any other suggestions?
    Thanks

    Skip the fleece and go for a thin, solid-color down vest. You can wear it by itself, or you can wear it over or under a sport coat. You can even wear it over a suit.

    I like the look and feel of a Merino vest ... the down is just to fluffy looking for me.

    anything new in the land of vests? I'm tired of not having one. i wear one on the bike almost half of the year. i like stuff made with PrimaLoft. i don't like fleece, nor NorthFace. that Outlier is badass, but long gone.

    leaning towards the standard Patagonia job.

    anything else to check into? 3-season type of deal.
