Kern Zip-up 2.0

Kern Arrows Zip-up from Veer

Kern Arrows Zip-up from Veer

As promised: more timely gift ideas. Within its short lifespan, Veer’s Kern Zip-up (not to be confused as a hoodie!) has become an instant classic and a must-have fashion staple for type nerds everywhere. Gifting this item to a typographically savvy designer friend is sure to result in profuse amounts of gratitude. There are only two (2) small problems, however, with this gift suggestion: 1) the Veer merch store doesn’t ship outside of North America, and 2) the snug-fitting numbers only run to size XL (which I had better fit into!).

So this classic has recently been re-rolled as the Kern Arrows Zip-up and incorporates some snazzy new features: 1) a brand new color (I adore gray), 2) nifty piping (ever-so-cool), and 3) directional arrows indicating which way the kern should come together (in case you were confused). I was glad to notice in the design credits that arrows from P22 Victorian Ornaments 2 and P22 Art Deco Extras are included on this fancy little number.
After that last post, you should be glad to finally get a gift suggestion that you can afford to get me, oh, or your own loved one. Beat the Black Friday rush and get your order in now!

    My problem is sleeve length. I have to roll up 3 times to make mine fit my less-than-lengthy arms :-)
