Wore this vest on a windy hike last weekend and it blocked the gusts way better than my old fleece. The recycled body fabric feels sturdier than I expected, and the synthetic insulation in the shoulders doesn't clump up when it gets damp.

The recycled body fabric feels sturdier than my old vest, and the 600-fill down keeps me warm on chilly morning commutes. Only gripe is the armholes run a bit snug over a sweater, but otherwise it's a solid layer.

The 600-fill down keeps me warm on chilly morning walks without the bulk of a full jacket. Only gripe is the armholes run a little snug over a thick sweater, but the recycled fabric feels solid.
