Heroes Wool Fleece Vest

$ 219

The Heroes Wool Fleece Vest is a true comforter, made in soft yet rugged sherpa wool fleece. It’s a natural, undyed piece – meaning that the color comes from a mix of different sheep wool. We have applied a chest pocket in waxed linen/cotton, the kind of convenient feature the old explorers would sew themselves while in camp.

EDITORS PICK IN FIELD MAG

Fleece season is approaching. And this European-made wool fleece vest from Norwegian outfitter Amundsen is our current top pick. Made of soft yet durable undyed Norwegian wool fleece, it will only get better looking with age and wear. A two-way zipper, hand warmer pockets, and a waxed cotton chest pocket round out the finer details.

Garment Care

The Heroes Vest Is a natural, undyed piece – meaning that the color comes from a mix of different sheep wool. This makes it free from chemical processing, and keeping the functionality that nature intended.

The amazing thing about wool is that is does not need washing nearly as much as other garments. Simply airing your woollen garment in low sunlight and/or wind or even lying it out on your bed before storing can get rid of any odours.

Please note that when you wash products with waxed cotton, the wax will disappear. Read more here on how to rewax your pieces.

Warm extra layer - natural fibres

Here are the details I really like about this gilet: first it has proper metal two way main zip; this is great for loosening at the bottom. Secondly it’s mostly wool, has a fleecy inside collar and it’s lined. It’s really warm and it’s a proper practical fit (not short like most “fashion” gilets). It has hand warmer pockets with zips (but why cheap nylon ones? The wool catches in them) which means you don’t lose the contents. I’ll wear it after my cold water sea swims. It’s a nice neutral colour that goes with everything.
