- Created exclusively for Mention, the Utility Vest takes inspiration from 1930s American hunting vests and 1940s military utility wear. Rather than simply reproducing vintage details, the pocket layout was rearranged into a more balanced and symmetrical design, giving the vest a refined appearance while preserving its strong vintage character.
The vest is made from an exceptionally heavy duck canvas woven slowly on old shuttle looms using tightly twisted yarns. The fabric has a firm, structured feel with excellent durability, while the reverse side is finished with a waterproof coating for additional protection during light rain and daily wear, while still maintaining the natural feel of the fabric.
Like vintage canvas workwear, the duck canvas will gradually fade and soften over time, developing deeper character through wear.
The vest features two large waist pockets together with side handwarmer pockets for everyday use. Inside, two large pockets provide additional storage space. The construction throughout is carefully considered, with additional piping reinforcement used in key areas to improve both durability and the overall finish of the garment.
The fit is intentionally roomy, with a wider chest and generous armholes designed for layering over heavyweight sweatshirts, hoodies, or even leather jackets. At the same time, the vest also works naturally over a simple T-shirt, adding texture and depth to lighter summer outfits without feeling overly heavy.
