Shoulder vest is pretty handy. You can wear it on the outside if you want, but even when you want to be more subtle it’s really easy to wear under a jacket. Very versatile if you need 3 more pockets on top of the dozens you already most likely have if you are wearing any other EG with it.

I think it’s pretty goofy but now that I got a full cord suit a part of me is considering getting a matching one without really understanding why.

It’s the pocket creep of a fresh EG convert I guess.

Spotted an EG shoulder vest in the final episode of the HBO miniseries Station Eleven. everyone in this show looks like they just walked off a Nepenthes lookbook shoot

Great catch!! I had my eyes peeled watching that last episode after seeing your post the other day. The series was so damn good. Loved the costume design.

The vest looks good in that lookbook pic and in some pics over a shirt I've seen but it kinda gives me gun holster vibes when worn over a tee. Same with that other vest that goes over both shoulders. Maybe it's because of the area I live in but I wouldn't want to wear it outside over a tee.

Maybe this says more about where I live.

Looks like there will be a Paraboot collaboration with EG for fall/winter '22? Always felt that collaboration was inevitable. Surprised it took this long to be honest.
