THE DRY PITS | MEN'S USA DOWN VEST

When Ty Pennington and Al Sharpton teamed up to create the modern day men's puffy vest, tensions mounted across the nation. Better Homes & Gardens called it "a confusing garment. Impractical and against family values."

It wasn't until "Back to the Future" that a vest like this USA puffy vest became appropriate to wear in public. Down vests are now functional, fashionable and the best way to constantly confuse summer and fall even if you don't have immediate access to a quantum flux capacitor like Marty McFly and friends.
