    VCs get a lot of flack for wearing sweater vests, but a couple days ago I found myself walking around in the financial district thinking, “I wish I were warm... but only my torso”

        You were wearing a Patagonia sweater, jeans and airpods you looked warm. But the wind tunnels in SF will cut through any clothing.

        Yeah I did I was at Starbucks off Market St was going to say hi but was in a meeting. Next time though! SF is small I always seem to run into someone off Twitter or LinkedIn that I know virtually.

        I'm surprised Austen didn't see me I'm hard to miss fully decked out in ski gear in downtown SF. Look for the bright red jacket next time!

        IMO choosing one of the following is OK but not more than one * sweater vest * all birds * VC branded swag But I’m biased as a VC 😎

        VCs don't use them to warm their torso. They are the only thing that will keep a VC's heart mildly warm.

        There is only one context in which one can legitimately wear a sweater vest - if you own a convertible in a cool climate like SF and regularly drive it, top down, with the heat blasting. (An awesome feeling, for what it's worth.) Surely this is how the trend started, right? Ehh..

        Isn’t the north face sleeveless vest issued to everyone who moves to SF?
