Only down vest I have is the Junya x Duvetica one in >>7213313, pretty light fill so it's better for the sort of weather I'm in.
Junya has done various down items both with Duvetica and the North Face, take a look at those
White Mountaineering does some fantastic down vests, especially if you like stuff with fantastic patterns, just look for second-hand ones on Yahoo!Japan auctions
They have some fantastic ones this season as well, but new they'll run you about $750~$1000 dollars
Here's Scott M with one

Swap out the outlier wool vest for a White Mountaineering piece - they have down-filled, goretex-lined vests that would be perfect insulation for rainy weather.
Also get a waterproof jacket - look at White Mountaineering and Arc'teryx Veilance
If you're just in a drizzle, weatherproof is ok, but if you're caught in decent rain, you'll want something weatherproof. Goretex is still seen as the best, but that's mostly to strong licensing - look into alternative technical fabrics used by a multitude of techwear manufactureres like SISP
For footwear, look into norwegian welted boots - a lot of hiking boots use this, as it's easily the most waterproof welt, far more than goodyear.
Reminds me that I need a new pair of hiking boots

Thank you very much.
I think the designers that Slimane is indebted to are mainly Vivienne Westwood and Raf Simons. I would say the style is very similar to Yuichi Kuroda of Lad Musician, as I said before, which opened in the early 90s, but I doubt even Slimane knew of Kuroda-san, as very few people do today, but his label Lad Musician is essentially the better and more original Dior Homme. Westwood's look with Seditionaries was synonymous with the punk look at the time, operating out of McLaren's sex shop in the UK. Her style as it's gone on has been as much associate with post-punk, new wave and has become increasingly less youthful, and more theatrical and somewhat matured, I would say. She pioneered the grungy street rocker look two full decades before Slimane was appointed to YSL for the first time, before even working at Dior. As for Raf Simons, Raf's early work was synonymous with a subversive youthful look that was based around very slim, modern tailoring, before moving to larger and more flowing silhouettes in the 2000s. In fact, Slimane came into criticism earlier in his career for copying Raf's slim silhouettes, so much so that Hedi banned some journalists for comparing him to Raf. Quite a laugh if you act me, and an extremely childish move on Slimane's part.
I mean, it's your choice whether you like Slimane's work or not, I'm just saying I don't particularly enjoy his work and I think him being lauded for his work isn't really deserved, and the quality from all the past seasons I've handled don't really justify the price. If you can get it on markdown, by all means, but paying retail for the jeans or the leatherware is not at all worth it to me.
Oh, and it's Hedi, not Heidi, just for future reference.
And thank you! I'm not particularly eloquent, but I try.
