Columbia Women's Heavenly Water-Resistant Insulated Vest - Lightweight Warm Winter Puffer Jacket for Outdoor Hiking, Skiing & Casual Wear

Great vest. Nothing to complain aboutI tried this with Amazon wardrobe. The fit was good but a bit tight in the breast area but not uncomfortable. It felt warm and the material is soft. The color was great and it looked great. Didn't keep it due to price and that I hace other vests, however, it was hard to let go because it was a great material and match for me.This vest is very flattering on. It’s a slim fit but with enough room to wear a thick long sleeve under it, though you may not be able to layer much beneath it (maybe a thin base layer and a long sleeve). No frumpy look with this vest. It was warm enough in high 40 degree weather. Not been out in colder weather than that to test. The pockets were functional (not too small) and the collar has a nice soft material on the inside for the back of the neck. The inside of the vest is bright like a disco ball but it’s supposed to keep you warm so I don’t let it bother me. I’ve not taken it camping or hiking yet so it’s untested in that respect (has not been beaten up or used in elements). Will provide a rewrite after I’ve had time to do that. I’m so glad I bought this vest - I would buy a second JIC of accidental puncture or tear. Would hate to have to wear anything other than this. I am a short and have a muscular build with broad shoulders. I normally wear a M shirt. The M fit perfect.First, this vest — at least in size Small — was made for people with my build. Not very busty or hippy with a relatively flat stomach. The olive is a really rich color and the cut just extends over the behind enough to cover any bumps. Terrific quality and I got it on Prime Day for less than $30 so it was a super bargain.Bought this last minute for our trip to Alaska. Great layering piece. Easy to roll up and tuck in a backpack for an extra layer. Very flattering. I see myself wearing this one a lot.5’4” 34A-27-38 size small. The small runs a little on the larger side but barely. Flattering stitchingThis is the perfect weight to keep you warm on cooler mornings that aren’t quite cold enough for a full jacket. I especially like wearing it over a long sleeve while hiking. Makes a huge difference in moderating body temp. Plus, it’s packable and washes well in the washer. I’m a big fan and would buy this again.I took this vest on a hiking trip in Peru. It was very light weight but warm allowing me to minimize the weight of the clothing I carried and wore over the day as we hiked from high snowy passes into the cloud forest ( temps as low as 34 and as high as 65 over the same hike).This is by far the best vest I have found! It’s super flattering and light weight for packing. It has a reflective thermal material on the inside that retains heat. It is very well made. Thin enough to fit under a form fitted light weight jacket, zipped up. I will definitely buy a lighter color for spring low tempsMy normal size is 12, the size M is perfect for me, it keeps me warm and go well with jeans and makes me stay in fashion.Pros: This vest is very warm(the fill & reflective dots make it warm enough to get you through fall & winter with appropriate layering). It fits true to size, is comfortable, and flattering. I love the Olive colour it looks even better in person, seems well made and durable, easy to wash.Cons: Mine has some loose threads annoyingly.Overall I would highly recommend this Columbia vest to others.If you found this review helpful please click the helpful button below :)Lo uso casi a diario en esta temporada de frío. Me daba un dolor en la espalda a la altura de los pulmones y este chaleco me ha ayudado y mas con el clima de mi ciudad. Sus bolsas son como suaves guantes cálidos para tus manos. La parte de adentro es plateada y es la que ayuda a mantener el calor corporal. Vi en los comentarios que a alguien le molesto esto. Pero esta es una prenda funcional y no de tendencia.The product is good, the seller is good, but they charge shipping for returns. I bought a size too big so I returned it. The cheapest shipping option cost me $21 and I live just one province over (not across the country). They don't indicate anywhere that returns aren't free. If I'd known it, I probably wouldn't have bought this. Lash is good, but you'd better like what you order.This is a really nice item. It has a slim fit and it has a short brushed liner around your neck. The only thing I am not super happy with is the arm pit holes. They could definitely be a bit bigger. It feels tight in the front of the armpit hole which is really annoying. I am hoping it will relax a bit once it gets worn in.
