Dear Distant Lover,

No words are sufficient to express the agony of life without you.  How you exist in a life so separate from my own - so real to the world yet a fiction in mine - pains not only my heart, but it chills my spine and darkens my soul.

*Awkward Silence*

Anyone having an unrequited love affair with SCOTTEVEST? Now might be the time to buy.

Anxiously awaiting your reply,

Pockette

Gary's Glimpse from the South...
We recently established a sponsorship with Gary Arndt, one of the top travel bloggers in the world (and he gets AROUND the world) - just came back from Antarctica! Photography is essential in recording his travels, so we're kicking off photo month with a pic and a tip from Gary himself:

And some tips, too!
by our partner travel blogger, Gary Arndt
When taking photos in cold weather, batteries will not work at peak performance. One thing you can do is keep your extra batteries close to your person. By putting them in a pocket in your shirt, rather than in your jacket or camera bag, they will be kept warm by your body heat and will perform better when inserted into your camera. They fit nicely in the q-zip shoulder pockets and are easily accessible if you are wearing a heavy jacket.

Go Gary, Go!
Gary just added one more award to his list: his podcast, "This Week in Travel" won the Gold Award in Travel Broadcast at The North American Travel Journalist Association and his blog, Everything-Everywhere.com, won the silver award.

 

Molly Jackets for Women

Shipping NOW!

The Molly Jacket is the first in a long list of brand new SCOTTEVEST apparel debuting in 2012.  And we think it's representative of everything we're about here at SeV: innovation, quality, and smart design (which to us means both fashion-wise AND function-wise).

17 pockets make this jacket great for both travel and every day use - trendy exterior pockets as well as interior pockets to secure money, cell phone, etc.  It also has a special little pocket inside that we like to call the "Lipsticker" here at the office.  The coat is available in "Antique" and "Onyx."

Perfect gift for yourself or for a special woman in your life.  But don't worry, gentleman, there's something a little bit out-of-this world headed your way next week...that's about all we can say for now.

Gear Diary has an article up already!

One Last Thing!
An SeV employee's latest project, kind of an insider's view...good bathroom-break reading.
