Fit Tip

Fit Tip for the Men's Lightweight R4 Vest: nice, trim athletic fit

Description

A vest that provides core warmth and stretchy, windproof protection for layering in cold conditions.

Stubborn in the face of persistent gales, this vest provides windproof warmth where it?s most essential: your core. The modest insulation of our stretchy Lightweight R4? fabric prevents overheating, while unlaminated R1? fabric (now made with recycled polyester) side panels and collar enhance next-to-skin comfort and breathability. Seam-free shoulders improve pack-wearing comfort, and the hand pockets ride high, above the harness-line. When full conditions roll in, the slim fit easily accommodates a shell. 100% recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program.

Lightweight R4?: 8.4-oz Polartec? Windbloc? laminate combines a polyester micro-fleece face with R1? (Polartec Power Dry?) grid polyester on the inside. R1 Panels: 6.5-oz 98% (60% recycled), 2% spandex (Polartec Power Dry) treated with a wicking finish. 100% recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program
Greater thermal versatility, more technical and stretchier than the traditional R4

Nice!! I love this piece. I use it skiing, sailing, hunting and any other activity that can benefit from a windproof vest layer. For skiing I use it in conjunction with a R2 top and bottom along with outer shells. For sailing it is a perfect piece if conditions are not very wet.

Great for around town or the trail Made with the same warm breathable fabric as the fantastic R4 lite jacket. Pair this with the jacket and you won't be cold.

Oatka Trail This vest fits great and wears well. The lunar eclipse color is stunning. Perfect for crisp Fall trail days along the Oatka Creek in upstate NY, stalking the wild queen fish where Seth Green himself walked and raised the trout fry.
