I am both warm and light!!

Hey, now that winter is almost over and it's warming up, I want to buy a new down jacket.

You might think that down jackets are for like the outdoors or whatever, but according to my research (source: I ride the subway), people wear them to the office too.

Here's some categories:

Tech dude special
Patagonia down sweater (this jacket actually rules and I have one)

Whoa it's workwear

I wear a sleeveless reversible Ralph Lauren one most days. Blue on one side, camo on the other. If it's raining I wear an unlined Barbour wax jacket over it.

You know what? This is heresy of the worst kind, I know, but the down jacket I reach for most often is my ultralight, packable Uniqlo thing. Sorry...

Norwegian Wool might be worth a look. They mix cashmere with down and would probably be good for those that work in a business casual office.

"I don't like the ubiquitous puffy down coat, they're for dads, mountain climbers, and techbros," I say to myself as I buy more down outerwear.

The Shirt.
It's a shirt, but it's down.

For when you want pockets.

The Sweatshirt.
It's a different kind of shirt, but it's also down.

The Vest That Wants To Hang Out With Jackets.
It's a down vest but it has leather sleeves which means you can't layer it.

The Dad Down, But You Also Like Color.
You're not fooling anyone.
