This vest has skimpy insulation. Mountain Hardwear offers two stretchdown vests for men but, as is often the case with MH, only 1 style for women and the insulation is very thin. Also, this vest does not have as much curve. Prior year's styling/shape has been better. And the color.... the blue vest in the images is actually green. Very green. It looks nothing like any of the images.
I like this one! It's comfy, and the stretch is nice to have in a vest, the non-stretchy vests I've had from other brands aren't quite as comfy. It's a solid length, not cropped but not awkwardly long.
