Easy everyday layer

I use this over long sleeves on chilly walks and under a rain shell when the weather turns. It adds warmth without feeling bulky around my arms.

Versatile and clean looking

The fleece has a polished look for work errands but still feels outdoorsy enough for weekend hikes. I bought the navy and it goes with almost everything.

Great travel piece

Warm through the core and simple to pack for trips. I wish there were more colors in stock in my size, but the vest itself is great.

Lives by the door

This has become my grab-and-go layer for shoulder season. It works well over a sweater without making me overheat indoors.
