L.L.Bean JAPAN EDITION Women's Holden Down Vest

The JAPAN EDITION collection was developed by a Japanese design team to suit Japan's climate and trends. This vest, based on our Windy Ridge Jacket from the '90s, features large waist pockets, but with updated materials. The padding is made with Photon Electron® Down, an advanced material that utilizes the far-infrared effect generated by the wearer's own body heat. It prevents overheating inside the garment while maintaining natural warmth. Furthermore, the combination with nylon ripstop, made from a high-density weave of ultra-fine nylon threads, results in an extremely lightweight garment. Sizing & Fit

Dry Cleaning
This Please note that due to the nature of feathers, feathers may escape through seams and fabric.

Feathers can escape even through small holes, so please avoid puncturing them with a needle or other object.

If some feathers are poking out, do not pull them out; instead, pull them back from the opposite side.

If loose feathers get stuck to your clothing, please remove them.

After wearing your garment, be sure to have it dry cleaned before storing it for an extended period of time.

When dry cleaning, please choose a dry cleaner that is experienced in handling feather products.
