The plaid knit is a remarkable garment. Equally at peace on a rugged handyman mending a fence as it is being the third outfit in the second act of a Hallmark movie where the big city career woman returns to her small town and learns the true meaning of love, it’s there to spread vibes and keep you warm.
But only kind of. Because when temps get low, as does our resolve in avoiding a clunky overcoat that would hide our stylish plaid. That’s why the high-pile material boosts its warmth with a 2,250 mAh battery pack fueling three discrete, no-nonsense heat zones. A waterproof button lets you cycle through the temperature levels or you can take control into your own hands (or wrist) with the included phone or smartwatch apps. It turns out our hero doesn’t need her old friend from high school to keep warm after all.
