Craftsmanship Reflecting a Commitment to "Made in USA"
Crescent Down Works' down outerwear is celebrated worldwide for its quality and elegant silhouette, despite its basic design. Details such as the leather reinforcement behind the snap buttons exemplify the brand's meticulous craftsmanship.
For this collaboration, the classic "North By North West Vest" serves as the base, updated with a double closure of snap buttons and a zipper. The fabric options include Pendleton's wool in a Navajo pattern and a solid charcoal grey. The lining is a lightweight, high-density polyester, accented with a refined color scheme.
Furthermore, the pattern and silhouette have been re-engineered to fit the Japanese physique, resulting in a slimmer, more fitted profile than the original. This special item is meticulously handcrafted using light and highly insulating goose down.
