Schilthorn Vest (Pre Order)

First held in January 1928, the inaugural Inferno Race took place when 19 members of Kandahar Ski Club climbed the Schilthorn (2,970m) above Mürren to race down the 2,100 meters to Lauterbrunnen, 14 kilometres away. A journey of almost 10 miles (15 km) and nearly 5 times the length of contemporary downhill Olympic courses, the Inferno was an alpine event whose novelty and legitimate physical and mental obstacles created powerful appeal to the growing racing class cut from the cloth of the Kandahar’s expansive blanket of accelerating British influence. High taste, panache, and handsome sensibility describe Alps & Meters Schilthorn Vest. An garment for every season, the Schilthorn Vest commands first class Italian craftsmanship, a richly baffled wool face fabric, with signature suede trim work designed to a high taste mixed medium of natural materials. Designed for the Gentleman Sportsman and Including the Alps & Meters signature mark at left breast, the Schilthorn Vest is an evergreen outwear piece celebrating of the Kandahar Club’s sporting legacy and polished British origins.
