Is there a Cotton or Linen Travel Vest with hidden inside pockets?
The one Scottevest with Some cotton is nice but not much cotton & has very uneven distribution of weight once it's filled. Thank you for cotton or linen ideas.

Check out this site. Not cotton, but very happy with the three I own and never give the fabric a second thought. Some inside pockets (one with a zipper) but not so many that you stuff them and look lumpy.

Rather than a vest, you might consider a shirt. Lots of companies make them with inside or accessible zipper pockets, including Scottevest.

We've perhaps a dozen travel (aka photo) vests. At least three (includes Domke, Orvis and Banana Republic) are 100% cotton (and the reason we proceeded to purchase the others which are nylon). We refer to our cotton vests as "triple-H": Heavy, Hot, Hydrophilic. The latter can be mitigated by periodically treating with water-repellent spray but tends to make them even hotter. Nylon vests are lighter, dry quickly and despite being less breathable tend to actually be less insulating.
