I love their designs, I have a couple of jackets, a fleece, and some miscellaneous other things from them. They all started showing signs of wear a lot sooner than I thought they should and look pretty ratty now. I've also found the zippers to be a problem and I've had a couple of them fail completely. I won't be buying any more.

I bought the Scottevest sport coat some years ago. I never liked the way it looked and because of the pockets you can really do much in the way alterations. It just looked cheap and the lack of any vent really added to that. I wore it traveling for a while hoping I'd get more used to it but I never did. Now it's just been hanging in my closet for ages.

Apparently not.
We have some of the original Scottevest items that are still useable. The basic designs are good, but much has changed in the world of electronics.
I keep looking at the emails they send out, but am not inspired to buy.
