Torres gilet versus wool jerkin

[Bushcrafter1]

Was interested in the Paramo Torres Gilet (the idea being you wear the gilet over your shell) http://www.paramo.co.uk/en-gb/garments/detail/index.php?pgc=NIKWAXINSULATORGILETTORRESUNISEX

Has anyone tried this?

But then I wondered about staying with natural fabrics to go with ventile - and found a wool jerkin .........http://www.old-town.co.uk/products/jerkin.htm

I like the idea of the wool one, but not at those prices !, and i won't wear a hat like that either. Would be cheaper to buy a swanni and cut the sleeves off.
