Vans Deathsmith Flannel Jacket

Some things never go out of fashion, whether you’re new to a particular style or whether it repeats itself onto your favourites lists, some things just age well and will always be in demand. One of the garments I like to place in this category, is a good old skool Vans quilted flannel, simple by design, practical in use and very warm over the cold winter months!

Every skate company that features a clothing dept would have done at least one of these over the past decade or so, but through experience I can tell you that this one is probably amongst the best I’ve ever owned. It looks like all the others, but the sherpa body lining and quilted inner arms will keep you very warm in this comfortable and very well fitted jacket, without giving you the appearance of Britain’s fattest skateboarder! Not sure how they’ve pulled it off, it’s so warm but not super thick?!

The jacket really looks more like a warm shirt than a coat, but don’t underestimate it’s ability to save your life in the blistering wind! It features 4 front pockets too, so you can keep your fiddlers tucked up nicely and not have them dangling out in the cold.
