Carhartt® Gilliam Vest CT102286

The men’s Gilliam Vest is the ultimate high-performance mid-layer, designed for those “in-between” days where core warmth is essential but full sleeves are a hindrance. Built with military-grade Cordura® and Carhartt’s most advanced weather-shielding technologies, this vest offers rugged protection in a lightweight, low-bulk package that fits perfectly over a hoodie or under a heavier coat.

Product Features

• Ultra-Lightweight Armor: The 1.75-ounce Nylon Cordura® shell provides world-class resistance to abrasions, tears, and punctures while keeping the vest incredibly light.

• Core Climate Control:

  • Rain Defender®: A durable water-repellent (DWR) finish that makes rain and snow bead up and roll off.

  • Wind Fighter®: Specialized fabric technology that blocks biting winds from cutting through to your torso.

• Efficient Warmth: Features 100-gram polyester insulation quilted to a smooth nylon lining, providing “Level 2 Warmer” protection without the stiffness of traditional duck fabric.

  • Exterior: One zippered left-chest map pocket and two hand pockets with hidden snap closures.

  • Interior: One zippered security pocket and one hook-and-loop closure pocket.

• Technical Engineering: Includes a drawcord adjustable drop-tail hem to seal out drafts and triple-stitched main seams for the industrial durability Carhartt is known for.
