Description
Line & Proportion
A clean down vest with a subtle chevron texture and a sculpted high collar—quiet volume, held close and composed.
Cultural dialogues around this piece
This silhouette appears in our visual stories that look at crossings, pauses and the quiet distance between arrivals and departures.
It is part of our ongoing study of presence — of how a clear line can frame motion without hardening it.
How it feels
Light, cushioned warmth with a smooth matte hand. The quilting reads discreet rather than sporty, keeping the surface calm while the down stays lofted and warm.
Presence in motion
Inspired by the serenity of coastal landscapes, the vest balances modern structure with softness. Chevron texture adds depth up close; discreet quilting keeps warmth without excess volume. The matte surface catches light quietly—calm, tactile, contemporary.
Materials & Care
Materials
Shell: 49% viscose, 29% polyester, 20% nylon, 2% spandex Lining: 100% polyester Padding: 90% white duck down A soft-touch shell with gentle stretch for comfort and recovery, finished with high-loft down for warmth at a clean, minimal profile.
Over time
With wear, the down settles into an even loft while the chevron surface softens slightly. Air between wears, spot-clean when needed, and store with space to preserve the collar shape and volume.
Fit & Wear
Fit notes

Sustainability
Sustainability
This piece is part of our edited, small-batch production in a refined matte shell with high-loft down. We design it to hold warmth with minimal bulk over many winters, and we share clear care guidance so the loft and finish stay composed for longer.
The SELVANE standard
Every SELVANE piece is held to the same discipline:
- Drawn within our “architectural, never rigid” language — quiet lines that hold space without stiffening the body.
- Cut and finished in focused, small runs, so each silhouette can be refined and repeated rather than endlessly replaced.
- Described as it is: where it serves you best, and where it does not.
If a piece does not meet this, it does not carry the SELVANE name.
