The Warmest Winter Jacket I've Ever Owned

Good morning Wiggy,

Here is a quick note to let your potential customers know the warmth of your products. I was out on the open tractor last week to clear some snow off the driveway. It's a quarter-mile driveway, very steep, and very exposed and it was about 12 to 15 degrees F with the wind whipping about 30 to 40 miles an hour. I have suffered through these conditions many times and always frozen myself.

I've been reluctant to use your "sweater" because it's so nice and tractor work tends to ruin things either with abrasions or spilled diesel fuel or hydraulic fluid or…. You get the idea. Living down south it never gets very cold, but this was the coldest I was going to have to face so I went out with my chore jacket over your fish nets, a sweater and another mid layer and fueled the tractor and did the various adjustments that may cause spillage of fuel or some kind of abrasion.

Then I went back inside, took off all my clothes, except for your fishnets and a see-through-thin long underwear shirt, put your sweater on and threw a wind breaker on the top and for the first time scraping my driveway I was warm. Not only was I warm but just sitting on the tractor open to the elements, the warmth grew the longer I stayed on the tractor. It was kind of amazing.

So, while the term “Sweater” may lead someone to think this gives lightweight or midnight warmth, this is the warmest winter jacket I have ever owned, and I grew up in Vermont.

The term sweater comes from the down jacket manufacturing who made a quilt through light weight down jacket and called it a down sweater. So, I called my jacket a down sweater making it like theirs without the quilt through stitching.
