Check & Stripe This is a kit that includes pre-cut patterns and a down pack. The down is in a compressed state. This is a reversible vest kit (without a hood). Fabric is not included, so please prepare your preferred fabric. I purchased this several years ago and have stored it at home. Please understand this before purchasing. There are a few wrinkles on the edge of the instruction manual that occurred during storage (see photo 4). Please understand this before purchasing. It will be shipped folded.
