I’m 5’9 age 46 and have 10ibs holiday chub to hide… this vest is flattering and functionally wonderfully warm. Also low key styling features - overall look
Best by far! this vest is great. I've had several other high end vests (arc , Patagonia). Those were both great. This is better. I love that it has internal stash pockets, breast pocket and very little branding. Zippers feel beefy on the main, not so much for the pockets . I can wear this vest in a wider range of climates. It keeps me warmer in the cold and doesn't get as hot while wearing inside. I also have 3 large dogs who love to shed, but this seemingly doesn't pick up much hair. High quality vest with a great fit.
I really like the fit. I am an overweight size large and I still feel comfortable with the vest zipped up.
Super comfortable, love this vest. I bought this after wearing a traditional fleece vest for years and the difference is remarkable. The shell material feels very premium, and the side panels keep it fitting snug without feeling restrictive.
This vest is very comfortable and warm. Panels on the front and back block wind. Great for golf by itself or under another layer. The vest also looks nice on.
Nice insulation layer. A good vest keeps the core warm and this one combines heat retention with minimal bulk. Fit runs a bit large, but I’m a small guy.
Nice lite vest. I loved the blue purple color and the cuts, angled stitching. the zipper is great. like that the material continues along the back.
Very stylish and warm. Zippered pockets are great, particularly the chest pocket. It was just a tad long but no biggie.
Smartwool doesn’t disappoint! Like every Smartwool product!
Merrill hiking shoes and Smart Wool vest fit great.
