      Comments about Mountain Hardwear WindStopper Tech Fleece Vest - Men's:

      This is an awesome vest. I got this as a christmas gift last in 2010.

      The vest has an athletic cut and isn't too long. I'm 5'10" 160 lbs and a Medium fits me very well.

      It's pretty stylish and I actually got it because my mom couldn't stand my ugly fleece vest haha.

      The Windstopper material works very well and this piece is great for layer.

        Comments about Mountain Hardwear WindStopper Tech Fleece Vest - Men's:

        Compactness, light weight and warm is what I like about these MH Windstopper Tech vests and jackets. They take up half the space of a comparable vest and jacket in your pack.

          Comments about Mountain Hardwear WindStopper Tech Fleece Vest - Men's:

          I am a serious runner (1200 miles per year) and have been using this vest for the past six months. It works really well. Here is why I like it:

          1. It is thin and lightweight, but also stops the wind very effectively. I recently was running directly into a 15 MPH wind and felt nothing on my chest.

          2. It is useful over a wide range of temperatures. On a recent run the temperature increased from the high 30s to the low 50s over the course of a few hours. Because this vest breathes so well and absorbs perspiration easily, I was not "drenched" with sweat when I finished my run.

          Although the vest was pretty well soaked with perspiration, my base layer was not, which meant that I could run comfortably for the whole run. Therefore even though this is a bit heavier than a lighter nylon running vest that I have, it actually works better in warmer temperatures, because the nylon vest does not absorb perspiration very well.

          3. It has a nice sleek fit and feels very comfortable to run with. It also runs true to size. If you like a looser fit, or plan to wear this over multiple layers (it works fine over a single thin base layer) you may want to size up.

          4. It is very well made. The zipper easily opens and closes, and there are three generous pockets (one on each side, and one on the right side of the chest).

          I bought this at my local REI in the fall, which is when this goes on sale.

          For colder conditions when a vest alone is not enough, I recommend the Windstopper Tech Jacket, which is made out of the same material as the vest. I also bought that on sale at my local REI in the fall.

          Bottom Line: I own lots of running vests, and this is one of my favorites. I recommend it.
