The label is the best thing about it: four bands of red, yellow, green and blue arcing over the letters OPAS, for Olympic Pant & Sportswear Co. Ltd. It was a Canadian maker, and almost nobody searches for it. The same rainbow sits as a small tab on the chest. The vest itself is grey nylon with insulation throughout, a stand collar, a snap storm placket over the zip, a flap chest pocket, two zip hand pockets and an elasticated hem.
The care label carries a Manitoba stuffing registration, the kind of small bureaucratic detail that places a garment on the map. It was made in Canada, and it was made to be worn over a flannel through a prairie autumn. It still does that job.
