Nice vest, increases warmth without being puffy. However, the fabric spots constantly with washing. For the price I would not recommend due to spotting and the difficulty washing. Fit was snug 6’1 , 235lbs - XL

Great for laying

The his is the perfect vest for laying with my Duck Oven. Provides added core warmth on the coldest mornings while not impeding arm movement. When it warms up I can pack it away easily. Only suggestion would be to use a little more rugged material for outer layer. But that might impact packability, always trade offs to consider.

Aerolite best

Warm and very thin, it’s not the quietest outer material but not extremely loud. The arm holes are a little snug but I thinks it’s to lock in air. Overall nice vest and will work as a layer for my purposes.

It’s so light, I wear it under everything because it adds warmth without making your arms bulky and heavy. I’m 5”11 180lbs and had to return the medium I got for a large and it fits good now. Medium woudnt let me zip it up with how tight it was.

Great Suprise

When it first arrived, I was shocked at how thin it was. I was concerned that it would not be what I wanted and would have to return. To my great surprise, it was exactly what I wanted. It had very little bulk but was a perfect insulating layer. I is perfect for keeping the wind out.

I use it as a base layer or stand alone. Warmth without the bulk or weight and holds up to everyday use like a champ! This is my second one! The first one I’ve had for 3 years and it’s just the same as the day I bought it! Insulation hasn’t balled up after tons of washings one bit!
