The seasons are finally changing, and as crisper weather rolls in, may we recommend that you turn to a vest when you're chilled? We all love our Westmorland and Retro-X vests at Archival, but we also have a soft spot for goose down. There's nothing lighter and more magically insulating, and they make a great pillow when you're backpacking. Here's a round-up of some historical models pulled from Backpacker Magazine and eBay, as well as some current offerings.
