The North Face Aconcagua Down Vest - Women's

Item #TNF2490 | 519 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Shiny and sleek like a well-fed seal is sleek

By Ranked #10 - Women's Vests February 2, 2009

I'm 5'11", 130 lbs., mid B-size cup. I found the small size to fit me best (I usually wear a medium in tees and long sleeves, and a small or medium in sweaters). This vest isn't fitted - like the pictures show, it's cut pretty straight to the hip. The material is satiny, so it slides easily under other layers and looks pretty snazzy. I bought this TNF boxier cut vest so it would fit well over fleece layers for very cold conditions. The down and amount of it in the vest is plenty for cold-weather layering.
For urban excursions, I'll probably buy a more fitted (hourglass cut) vest.
