Good versatility
I had no problem with my iPhone XR in a beefy case fitting in the front pocket, but it's snug. My use cases are 1. Layering piece on 2-4 day mountaineering objectives in 0-35F temps 2. Going on walks around town in 30-65F 3. Inside the house, over a tee shirt at 70-75F or layered up with other stuff when it's colder I'm 5'9" 195 lbs athletic build and I wear a medium, form fitting but not tight or constricting anywhere. This isn't a wind breaking piece, it's grid fleece. As such it's medium warmth and light wind protection, breathable, good for mid layering in the cold. I'm on the couch wearing it right now over a long sleeve hoodie and a tee shirt under that. In my opinion. Grid fleece is a good alternative to wool: more durable, warmer, gets more smelly over multi day adventures. Wool resists odor really well, breathes better, breaks the wind less, rips easier. Anyways this vest does exactly what it's supposed to do.

Useless chest pocket
I bought this as an outer layer for early spring hiking/snowshoeing, easily layered-over but enough for ascending. In the wilderness I need a chest pocket to hold either a cellphone or a good map. This pocket is too small for either. Someone decided that the pocket should serve urban style, so it's very small. But I would have expected OR of all companies to create something serviceable. I'll keep this for random wear and replace with a better vest when I can find one
