As the title states I'm looking for a down vest. I love my marmot vest but it's a shiny black and not good for hunting. I'd even go for a non camo puffy vest just as long as it is a muted color and somewhat quite. I'm not interested in synthetic fill at this time but am afraid that's what I'll end up with.

The Sitka Kelvin down jacket looks perfect but doesn't come in a vest :(. And as an archer I don't like the idea of having a puffy sleeve in the way.

So are there any choices out there I haven't found yet?

Thanks!
 
The Kuiu is exactly what I'm looking for and I've checked on it about once a month but I've never seen it not on backorder. I'm not playing that game.

Thanks everyone. I'll check the others out when I get a little more time.
 
And if you're looking for a really superb vest in somewhat muted colors, consider Feather Friends Daybreak, Hyperion or Helios vests. I own a Helios and it is super-puffy for cold situations. It comes in Grass and Ash colors. From a personal standpoint the KUIU Superdown Vest is simply too lightly filled for my needs. I prefer more loft and warmth.

Don't be afraid to order backorder from Kuiu, if you wait for it to be in stock you will be waiting for a long time. Plus, free shipping on backorders. Just order it and if you find something before just cancel the order. I would be willing to bet that you would have it in the next 3 months.
 
Fleece vest are also pretty good. You might want to consider those as well. I have two, one NatGear and the other came the ScentLok Jacket I got for $50 on end of the year clearance. I really like the ScentLok one for bowhunting. I have had Down as well but Fleece seems quiter. I am sure they have better fabric than the old down vest I used to use.
 
that Uniqlo is a nice looking vest. cheap price too. i might order one since i dont have a vest to layer yet. too bad they dont have any of the earth neutral colors in stock in medium
