The North Face Redpoint Insulated Vest - Men's - 2010 BCS

This vest has been a great addition to my layering scheme. On a very cold day skiing in Vermont, I found I was too hot with my TNF Gore Tex jacket and Redpoint jacket zipped in. Switched at lunch to the vest under the Gore Tex and was very comfortable.

As warm weather has still not come to New England, I use the vest almost daily at lacrosse practice / games. When I am running with the kids, I wear the vest over a long sleeve shirt and find my arms free to move. In windy conditions, the vest under a team jacket does the trick. I am cold most of the time, so I carry this vest with me always. It is very compact and easy to stuff into a bag or its own carry pouch.

I just received my NF vest and wore it for the first time this past weekend. This vest kept my body warm and it was very comfortable to wear. I highly recommend it. Another thing I like about the vest is that, it isn't to heavy or thick.

I like it as as a casual vest to wear with jeans when the weather gets cool.

I am 6'5" and 200lbs. Needless to say finding a vest that was long enough took years. This vest is "the business." Form fitting without being tight. Great looking and warm as hell.

For everyone who hates the bulky blimpy down vests... here it is-- a primaloft vest... amazingly comfortable, very light weight, a great insulation layer. Nice design with three pockets all with zippers and with cinch at bottom to seal out the wind. I wore one of these most days last winter... a perfect warm layer under any jacket or coat.
