This Hero Vest was one of the first I made and it has been worn to death over winter. Unlike Oscar, Tommy is our cold boy. He doesn’t handle winter so well and is always freezing. His Hero Vests have saved the day over and over again, in fact, I’m planning on sewing him another one ASAP so that there is always a clean one to be worn!
I didn’t even bother getting Tommy a jacket this winter. I knew we wouldn’t be spending a great deal of time outside with a new baby and his vests have been just the right amount of warmth to do the job. He saves the hood for the special occasion of rain only!
This Hero Vest is sewn with a knit fabric exterior. As nice as the cotton version is, there is something cosier about soft and stretchy knit fabric, I think it’s a little warmer too. Our first few days of Spring were delightful, unfortunately the weather is taking a cold turn again so I think we’ve got plenty of Hero Vest wearing time ahead of us!
