Description: Made in the USA of 25 micron (not itchy) heavyweight 520 g/m2 100% wool. 23.5” wide = 47” chest, 28” long. Smoke free house. Very clean, you can tell from the tag that it wasn’t washed much at all. I purchased on eBay last season and never wore it due to owning 8 other Ibex 100% wool jackets & vests. Has just sat in my closet clean and folded up all year. I believe these are a better alternative to the USA made Filson Mackinaw & Pendleton 100% wool vests & jackets (but this Ibex wool does not itch like those do). Wool has got to be the best natural fabric, as it’s anti microbial, thermo-regulating as it keeps you cool in the heat & warm in the cold. Wool is a naturally fire resistant fabric-perfect for around the camp fire. The made in the USA Ibex products are a thing of the past now... which makes these more rare to find in good condition. Excellent for layering. From website… Blending urban styling with rugged outdoor warmth, the Arlberg is the heavyweight vest that equips you for exertion or relaxation. Whether you’re hiking the trail, driving the kids to school, or sitting in the football stadium, the Arlberg dresses and protects you in fine Austrian cold-washed wool that’s styled with outdoor spirit. From the full zip front and protective stand collar with contrast Pez fabric lining, to the two zip pockets that store your gear or warm your hands, the Arlberg is synonymous with the cool weather experience. Loden fabric was first created by monks in Tyrol Austria almost 500 years ago. This fabric is created by loosely weaving heavy fibers together and then putting them through a lengthy shrinking process. This creates a super durable knit that feels a lot like felt and is very wind and water resistant. The Alberg Vest from Ibex puts this old world fabric to good use and it mixes in some rich details for style. The zippers/zipper pulls down the middle and on the pockets add a touch of handsome class. This vest is amazingly warm thanks to its 520 gram fabric. When you layer it over a light base layer you won’t want much more on top besides this.FitSemi-Fit - The Arlberg Vest is semi fitted and it is designed to fit closer to the body while allowing room for base layers underneath.Fabric/Performance LevelHeavyweight Loden 400 - This 520g/m2 fabric is heavy duty.
