I'm looking for a Thinsulate® jacket and vest that are not covered with hard, noisy outer layer, such as Cordura® or ripstop nylon. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Low noise clothing is associated with Hunting Clothing and other outdoor activity. Places like Cabelas will often list low noise clothes. www.cabelas.com
I can't recall if they use the term noiseless or silent most as the descriptor. Other outfitters may list them also.

Most of Cabela's 'silent' gear tends to be camo - so unless you're looking to stalk some prey, you might want to look at a store that specializes in running/cross country supplies like Running Unlimited.

Ventile option
Naph,
If you want low noise and waterproof, check out the Ventile cotton options out there. On the web, search on Country Innovation's Rover Jacket. Made in either Scotland or Sri Lanka. It's used for hillwalking/birding. I almost pulled the trigger on that one before deciding on Hackett's MacGregor jacket. Good luck to you in your search.

L.L. Bean carries a "Warm Up" jacket that is waterproof, warm and quiet. The shell is a soft nylon type material, and the lining is a soft Thinsulate type of lining. I am comfortable in mine down to the 20's. Below that a sweater or vest is needed for me as I am cold blooded. They are sized large. I normally wear a 42, and the Large is a little big on me. I have had mine for four or five years and have never gotten cold or wet while wearing it.
