Warm colorful vest.
I received the vest, when the winter temperatures was in single digit to low teens. I went about my daily business warm and comfortable in the vest.

Love this vest. It's super warm, comfortable, and stylish. But a breast pocket would make it 5 stars.

Great vest!
Excellent winter outerwear! Very comfortable while driving or in a store, but very warm for the walk from the parking lot. Looks real good, too.

This is a beautiful and warm vest. It’s good for wearing out, but isn’t durable enough to be considered a work vest.
