Wore vest on weekend in Kawekas on a 3 day hunting trip, found it warm & comfortable as an outer layer and also as an inner layer under my suppressor jacket. Only a minor point is the polyester lining was wet with sweat when it is taken off. So took it off to let the sun evaporate the sweat.
Great vest. Warm, light and packs small.
Best vest I’ve ever had, I wear it almost every day. For all uses. Comfy, great looking and I don’t get overly hot or too cold. 10 out of 10.
Absolutely love this vest. I was suprised how versatile it was. Very, very comfy and you barely realise your wearing it. Great for sitting around a fire over a T-shirt in very cold temps or over your thermals at night while sleeping. It really does produce and lock in the heat but being a vest you never feel uncomfortable. This item always comes with me.
This vest is a deadset life saver. it can be compressed down and it takes up no space in your pack and weighs nothing. I take it in my pack all the time to chuck on for extended glassing sessions and also as an emergency backup in case things go pear shaped. It comes in Tuatara camo too.
