MEN'S VESTS

These canvas vests are the logical companion to our trouser range. Crafted from the same C-Canvas as our Supertrousers and lined with polyester microfibre fleece, this vest will protect you from the elements but with way more durability than your average waterproof/breathable garment.

Perfect for farming or outdoor work where you require movement with your arms or when a jacket is just too hot. Heavy fabrics used for longevity and protection, the Canvas Vest has the same shell, same lining, same rugged toughness as the Canvas Jackets, just without the arms.

• Proofed European 12oz C-Canvas is great to wear and will last for ages
• Made in New Zealand with first world environmental and labour values
• Wide shoulder covering to keep out the rain or handle the fence post loading
• Roomy fleece lined hand pockets for warmth or nails
• Casual styling which won't let you down in most social situations
• Bar-tacked at all stress points
• YKK zips because they're the best

Down vests or puffer vests are a 'must have' for New Zealand winters and without the arms, they're great for autumn and spring too. Good down jackets are never cheap so when you buy one you want it to last. This is why we thought that we should take on the challenge to make a tougher down vest for those working and playing hard in the outdoors.  And we did - super tough vests that stand up to gorse, firewood stacking, brushing past old farm gear and the likes.

In true NZ made style, we're always looking for ways to make our gear even better and our 2020 design tweaks do just that.  Strengthened in all the places we do repairs and taking on board customer feedback, the latest evolution of the Cactus Down Vest features a grunty two way zipper, extra strengthening around pockets, a removable hood, a few more 'Michelin man' rolls, improved water repelling super powers rolls and so much more.

• 100% nylon two layer waterproof outer
• Adjustable and removable zip-off hood
  
• Extra strong main zipper with two way slider
• 750-loft white goose down. Ethically and responsibly sourced
• DWR treated down - this means when it's raining the down itself is water repellent, anti-clumping and carries on doing it's job to keep you warm and insulated
• Nylon taffeta lining with extra internal reinforcing on the lower back to avoid wear and tear around your 'seat'
• Two internal chest pockets, two external (fleece lined) hand pockets
• Fleece lined neck

Originating from the snow industry, these vests are designed to give you everything you need to do your job right at your fingertips.

No matter what your tools, the 2 chest pockets (that go all the way to your armpit) or the 4 big cargo storage pockets will hold 'em. 

• Super reflective 
• A place for a radio harness 
• A place for your ID 
• YKK zips
• And a 2-way giant zip straight down the middle

These vests were used a bucket-load during the earthquakes! 

Adding to the raft of Cactus workwear, the Mesh Hi Vis Vest is an ideal solution for people working on their feet all day who need to be seen. After extensive prototyping and testing by professional users, we’re confident that our vests are considerably stronger and more durable than the competition due to our pack manufacturing history and construction techniques.

Vests can be branded specifically for your organisation.

• Super heavy duty YKK zip
• Hi Vis Heavy Duty Mesh with reflective panels
