Perfection Evolved. The vest version of our premium ultralight features the same new high-mobility fit and feature set as the jacket and hoodie, minus the sleeves and the drawcord hem. Version 2.0 is more comfortable and mobile, with slightly longer length for added coverage and warmth, and softer fabric to further enhance the comfort.
As an ultralight insulating layer, the MicroTherm is thinner than traditional down vests. But that combination of minimal bulk and effective warmth is what makes it special, and is the result of its patented construction and the exceptionally high-loft Premium Goose Down that it holds close to the body for maximum thermal efficiency.

I bought this to layer under my rain jacket and I'm so happy with it. It's very warm and perfect for layering. It has a trim fit so there's no bulk! The warmth is perfect for layering for spring/fall outings here in the PNW.

I was pleased to find the vest has several more pockets and is warmer than anticipated . I was telling someone the vest would be perfect if only there was a "buttonhole" to pass your headphone wire through. In the same breath, I found the "buttonhole" for the headphone wire, so, I guess that makes it perfect.

Great vest. Nicely made, stylish and tailored just right. I am tall and this is a perfect length. Goes with alot. Wish it had a bit more down and the outer layer material was more substantial...tighter weave and more satin finsh, has an odd look to it. (at least in the gray color) Thank you.
