Patagonia Down Sweater Vest - Men's
Awesome - SUPER warm
By Andrew Meinert
Ranked #147 - Men's Vests
January 14, 2011
This is a great vest. I bought it as an extra layer to keep in my pack while skiing. It compresses down well into its own pocket. High quality construction; it looks like it'll stand up to some use. Super light but also quite possibly the warmest thing I've ever worn - I can only imagine how warm the full jacket is.
I bought a small and it fits well at 5'8" 150, although it's a bit snug around the waist. If you have more than 2 heavy layers on underneath it might not fit. I'd buy it all over again in a heartbeat.
