Wear the Columbia Men's Cathedral Peak Vest over a hiking shirt or under a ski jacket for extra insulation. Thick, soft fleece traps body heat around your core, so you can keep breaking trail or making turns when the temperature drops a few degrees. Off the mountain, zip up the standard-fit Cathedral Peak Vest over a T-shirt for some extra warmth, color, and casual style.
Bottom Line: When you don't want to bother with a bulky jacket, grab Columbia's Cathedral Peak Vest.
I've been wearing this pretty much every day since I got it. It is well designed, soft and perfect for the fall weather. I'm 5'7" and 130 and the Small fits well with room for an underlayer if needed. My only negative is the double layer neck is very high. If you zip it all the way up, you may feel like you are wearing a c-collar.
No, this vest does not have a two-way front zipper. A possible choice if a two-way zipper is really important (they're fairly rare on fleece vests) would be the Cloudveil Inversion Down Vest.
I bought this a gift for my nephew so I won't be wearing it myself. Of couse, since we generally wear the same size I tried it on and it seemed to fit very well (I'm 6'1 170 ordered medium) and not too large like some Columbia outerwear tends to be. It is a lightweight fleece so it won't be blocking the wind, but it will work for sunny/windless ski or hiking days with just a baselayer underneath. Construction seems good and the price can't be beaten for what you're getting...just don't expect the features/attention to detail of an Arc'teryx or Cloudveil.
Want to buy this for a friend who is a small guy, probably 5'6, BUT he does work out upper body so he's muscular. Size? Medium? I'm afraid to go too small or large.
Love it, it's like my special security comfort blankie now. Combined with khakis, standard issue hedge fund trading garb, pinstripe suits - we spit at them!
