The Layering Piece That Earns Its Keep

A good vest solves a specific problem. It keeps your core warm without restricting your arms, works over a shirt or under a jacket, and packs down small enough to throw in a bag when the day warms up. Rather than offering dozens of different styles, R.M.Williams focuses on a select range of vests, each designed for a particular purpose.

At Blowes Clothing, we stock the core R.M.Williams vest styles including the Rydal, the Patterson Creek, the Padstow, and the Yambulla waxed vest. Each is built with the same attention to quality materials and construction that runs through the broader R.M.Williams range.

The Styles at a Glance

The Rydal Vest is a lightweight quilted style that offers warmth without feeling bulky. Easy to layer and comfortable to wear, it's equally at home over a checked shirt on the weekend or a merino knit for a smart casual look.

The Patterson Creek Vest takes a more rugged approach. Also quilted for warmth, it features a hard-wearing outer and classic country styling that pairs naturally with jeans, boots and shirts and jumpers. It's a great choice for cooler days when you want something practical that still looks polished.

For those needing extra protection from the elements, the Yambulla Vest is crafted from waxed cotton. The waxed finish helps shed rain and repel wind, while developing character over time, making it a dependable option for outdoor wear and everyday use.

What is the warmest R.M.Williams vest?
The answer depends on how and where you plan to wear it. Quilted styles such as the Rydal, Patterson Creek and Padstow are designed as versatile everyday layers, providing warmth without excessive bulk and working well over a shirt, flannel or knit.
The Yambulla vest takes a different approach, combining a waxed cotton outer with a warm sherpa lining. This makes it a great choice for cooler conditions where protection from wind and light rain is just as important as warmth.
For most everyday wear, a quilted vest will provide all the warmth most people need. If you're spending long periods outdoors in cold winter conditions, you'll generally be layering either style with a wool knit, jacket or coat for additional insulation.
How should I wear an R.M.Williams padded vest?
The padded vests work best as a mid-layer over a shirt, flannel, or light knit. It sits close enough to the body to layer comfortably under a jacket if needed. For a more casual look, wear it over a long sleeve shirt or merino polo with jeans and boots. For something smarter, pair it with chinos and an Oxford shirt.
Is the R.M.Williams Yambulla vest waterproof?

The Yambulla vest features a waxed cotton outer that is water resistant rather than fully waterproof. It will handle rain and wind well, but is not designed for heavy or sustained wet weather. Like all waxed cotton garments, it will benefit from periodic re-waxing to maintain its water resistance over time.
