Frequently Asked Questions

  • Both are classic Stormy Kromer wool vests, but they offer different looks and features. The Button Vest has a traditional design with a button front, V-neck, and slightly heavier 26-ounce, 100% wool that matches our Mackinaw Coat. The Ironwood Vest has a more modern look with a full-length zipper, stand-up collar, and slightly lighter wool for everyday versatility.

  • The Button Vest fits true to size and is designed to layer comfortably over a flannel shirt or sweater. We recommend ordering based on the chest measurement in our sizing chart. If you are 6' or taller, you might consider our tall sizes.

  • A wool vest keeps your core warm while giving your arms full freedom of movement. It's a great choice for working outdoors, running errands, or layering when a full coat feels like too much. Many people find a vest to be one of the most versatile pieces in their cold-weather wardrobe.

  • The Button Vest is designed to keep your core warm without restricting movement. Its heavy 26-ounce wool makes it a great outer layer in cool weather or an excellent mid-layer under a coat in colder conditions. The V-neck design also layers comfortably over hoodies, flannels, and sweaters without adding bulk around your neck.

  • Yes, especially in snow. Wool can absorb up to 35% of its weight in moisture while still providing warmth, making the Button Vest an excellent choice for cold, damp conditions. It isn't waterproof, however, so while it will handle light precipitation well, it's not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

  • Dry cleaning is the best way to care for your Button Vest. Spot cleaning can work for small stains as needed. If the coat becomes wet, allow it to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Never machine dry your wool coat.

    I receive my vest with quick shipping. The material is top notch and heavy duty. The construction Top notch, with perfect stitching and finishing. I’m a 42” long and the fit for the large tall is good. I have a athletic build, the cut is somewhat squared off with some extra room. Would work extra well with layers. It also fits well under a jacket.

    Shopping with Stormy Kromer was a refreshing experience. I began with a weekend query about the vest and received a friendly response with a photograph as soon as the business opened on Monday morning. I ordered the vest on Tuesday and it arrived from Michigan on Thursday. The shipping was free. I'm 5'9" and weigh 168 and the medium size fits like a glove. The charcoal is darker than the photographs I've seen and is actually dressy, but the wool is substantial and appears to be durable enough to wear while working outdoors. A bit heavier than the Filson. This is the kind of quality I imagine existed a hundred years ago when people bought thick, well-made woolen coats and vests that lasted a lifetime and beyond. The stitching and general craftsmanship also appear to be of superior quality. Based on my experience, you can trust this company to care about their products and customers and I think you'll find this vest is everything you're hoping for.

    Got two of the vests (orange and green) during the PI Day sale and happy I made the decision! Quality stitching is top notch and and the fit is perfect for me! I am 6ft, 218 lbs and the XL is spot on! I do wish the fabric was a bit thicker but this will suffice for the fall hunting seasons and as a mid layer! Hope to buy another again soon!
