I normally wear a women's small, but I wanted my vest to fit a little bigger, so I ordered a men's small, and it fits great! The golden color is perfect to go with other colors. I highly recommend this product.

Awesome fleece
I bought this vest after seeing it in person at the Patagonia store. It is warm and comfortable. I am a huge fan of Patagonia and this vest does not disappoint!

Wonderful Vest
I've been wanting this vest for a long time and finally bought it. I was pleasantly surprised with how comfortable and warm it is. It's perfect to wear hiking on a chilly day or just as a casual vest as I do. Patagonia's quality is un-beatable.

he hasnt taken it off since xmas!
i bought this vest for my husband for christmas....and he hasnt taken it off since! we are outdoors in the winter a great deal; skiing, hockey, playing paddle, etc. so i figured the windproof element of this vest would be perfect especially since he doesn't like bulky jackets. i bought him the narwahl (dark grey) color which is terrific! the fit is perfect, too...he's 6' and 200ish lbs so i bought an xl. bottom line: this is a great vest for all outdoor pursuits!

top notch
A wonderful item if you can nail the sizing. runs a little small. Windbloc works well and keeps you toasty. I love it!

Best vest you'll spend money on
And yeah, it is worth the $$$. It is typical Patagonia...top notch style, quality, and versatility.

a great all-purpose vest
At 6'2" and 220 pounds, a large fit just right. It's a snug fit and the windstopper does its job well. A great vest for layering. The collar is a little on the stiff side, but I don't wear vest or jacket collars down anyway. Great in the spring and fall, or under a thinner winter coat.

fratty
who doesnt love a fratagonia vest? its great for walking around campus in any weather. on those spring mornings when its chilly it will keep you warm and as the day progresses and heats up, you wont get hot keeping it on. highly recommend it

good vest, funny collar
Vest looks good overall, but could possibly be a little longer or come in a tall version. My husband is 6' 2" and if you are taller- this may not cover your belt. Also, the collar is odd height. Too tall/stiff to wear "up" and sits awkwardly when folded "down." Hopefully, with more wear, my husband's collar will become a little more relaxed and broken-in. Despite my concerns, he loves it and doesn't have any complaints! I didn't tell him how much it cost though... :)

Nothing like the best
A rugged vest with great style.Took a year to get used to the price (and buy), but worth it. Great vest.

warm and comfortable
This vest fits snugly so the windstopper can do its job, but it's got enough stretch that I can bike in it without feeling constrained. The material is a bit stiff around the collar so I find myself unzipping it and folding the collar down when relaxing at home and reading, which is a bit less comfortable than a down vest would feel, but I don't mind the trade-off for the excellent warmth-to-weight ratio and the fact than it turns back Fall Chicago winds easily. I find it stylish, too, and I'd recommend it for anyone who wants a vest for walking in a windy, chilly climate or bike-commuting in the fall and spring.

excellent warmth and versatility
it not only looks good but is very practical. great as a stand alone or layering. Just wish the waist had a draw string.
