Hey Everyone,
As the days shorten faster here in New York, we've been thinking a lot about warmth, and how little vocabulary we have to talk about it in English. Warmth is not just a number, there are qualities to warmth that the English language just does not have the words to address directly, or at least that’s what it feels like when we are wearingAcottondown...
It’s no secret we’re obsessed with unlocking the secrets of warmth without overheating here at Outlier and today we’re excited to launch our latest experiment in finding that perfect glow,Acottondown. Built around two innovative Italian fabrics, Acrispcotton and Thindown, this new approach to down is a softer and gentler warmth designed to escape the overheating trap that traditional down garments are prone to. Think about the difference between sleeping under a down duvet and a down sleeping bag. In a world of loud down jackets built like sleeping bagsAcottondownbrings quiet comfort of down duvet.\xa0
Today we launch the midweightAcottondown 80 Overvest. A vest that wants to be a poncho, perfect for adding a little warmth on top of it all. Later this month we hope to launch the lightweightAcottondown 45 Cowlvest. A vest designed to be worn close to the body for that gentle and calibrated core warmth. Willie just might have anAcottondownsurprise or two in the works too, so stay tuned.\xa0

Once you’ve gotten warm and cozy, then it’s time to worry about how to carry things around. Today we’ve got two experimental iterations on our suspension system bags.Experiment 375 - Nexhigh Suspension Handbagis bag optimized for find-by-hand use. This iteration adds three cognitively distinct pockets and a Fidlock closure to the form first seen back in Experiment 278. If your style of carry is to have things easily accessible and findable by touch without looking this is the bag for you. At 10 liters we find it perfect for carrying daily essentials while still having room for a few groceries or book purchases while we are out and about.\xa0

If that’s not big enough thoughExperiment 416 - Nexhigh Suspension Duffleclocks in at a hefty 43 liters, although the truth is it’s actually a slimmer iteration on the earlier Transformative bag. With the narrower body and larger handle we find this perfect for full gym loads and serious grocery shopping. Like the transformative bag it can be used zipped up for security, or folded down for easy access and oversized loads.\xa0

If both of them are too big though, well there is always the compact 2 liter simplicity ofthe Carry. Everybody’s carry needs are different but we find this size is perfect for packing the essentials while keeping things fast and light.\xa0
