Experienced travelers know what an asset a warm vest can be during unpredictable weather. This truffle brown micro-suede vest easily repels mist and rain while the sherpa fleece lining keeps you warm and insulated. It's also great for exploring cities, when you'll be in and out of cafés and museums all day long. By pairing it with sweaters and base layers, you can replace a bulky winter coat and leave more room in your suitcase. One front zip chest pocket and two slash pockets provide ample room to stash a wallet, a passport, or even a guidebook, and still leave room to warm your hands.
