down puffers by Crescent Down Works

I came across these great down jackets made by a small company out of Seattle called Crescent Down Works. The one above is part of a collaboration they did with APC for a simple down jacket but it is unfortunately available only in Japan. Then I found a men's store in LA called South Willard that is producing a line of jackets in collaboration with Crescent Down Works. If you have a spare $350, you should order one.

The quality is top-notch outerwear while the styling is very simple and pared-down, a true Pacific Northwest wilderness look. And they just got several of the better styles back in stock. Check it out on their website: South Willard. They also have a great blog too.
