In 1935, a young Seattle based sportswear retailer and manufacturer would make an indelible mark on the fashion world when, following a fishing trip on which he nearly died of hypothermia, he made a quilted jacket from goose down. The young man was Eddie Bauer. The technique that he created, using pockets of lightweight, fast drying and heavily insulating feathers birthed a new type of jacket that would grow to become a world favourite.
This particular jacket featuring the iconic sunrise logo is dated to the late 1950s/early 60s and rather unusually the fabric is "expedition cloth", Bauer's version of ventile.
Condition
Wonderful used condition. The only issue I can see on it is a small knick (less than 5mm) on one cuff. A very warm and wearable example!
