Reviews

Best vest I’ve ever bought

"This vest is by far the most comfortable vest I’ve ever worn. Fit is perfect, breath ability is awesome. And it’s super comfortable. A perfect addition to my layering system and regular every day wear"

Blaine B. (5/5)

Hard Scrabble Vest For the Win!!

"Love my hardscrabble vest! I bought a large, while I’m normally more of an XL man, but this was intentional so that I could wear it as a close fitting core layer, and it works beautifully for that!! Highly recommend!"

Mike T. (5/5)

Comfy

"This thing is so comfy I almost want to wear it as an everyday vest and I hate vests. I have it pairs with the short sleeve and 1/4 zip Marino shirts and the with the vest is the best for hiking. No real need for a jacket on less windy days and anything below -2c"
