Reviewed by Brannon32 from Vallejo, Ca. on Sunday, May 05, 2013I'm not quite sold on the Omni-Heat that Columbia has in their linings. It's a bit too much for the milder California climates. This vest is nice and light, insulates, and seems to be durable. My only gripe (and reason for returning it) is that that the outer layer feels just slightly rougher than the material used by Marmot or Mountain Hardware. For some, this may be a good thing, but it's not what I was looking for.

Reviewed by Murph the Brewer from Pennsylvania on Friday, April 26, 2013This vest fits true to size, is wonderfully warm but very light weight. Works well as a layer or alone. Zippered pockets were a requirement and this vest doesn't disappoint. very pleased, can't comment on durability but looks to be well made as expected from Columbia.

Reviewed by Pete from Lafayette on Wednesday, March 06, 2013When the vest arrived it was everything that I have come to expect to get from Columbia Sportswear products. The construction is good, medium fit was right on. The only issue I have with the vest is that originally ordered it in Gold Leaf and it apparently there were black or dark feathers used. Not a lot however, they are visible with that color. When I first put it on I thought it was a smudge or dirty spot when I noticed about three more. I returned it for a black and it is great. As I intend to use this as a layer under other items as well as outer layer. The 10.5 oz makes a relatively thin vest but still warm. Being thin it works well as a layer below a shell. I enjoy the freedom of motion i get from a vest (with no shoulder or arm constriction). The reflective surface inside the vest might be adding some heat too, it certainly doesn't hurt. Vest seems well built and is a nice length (I am tall 6'2" 180 and it doesn't ride up).

Reviewed by Jesse the Oregonian from Oregon on Tuesday, March 05, 2013I love this vest! I have been wearing it almost constantly since I got it. It's warm, yet extremely lightweight. The onyx blue color looks navy or deep purple, depending on the light.

Reviewed by Heart of Your Health from Arizona on Saturday, March 02, 2013Light, compact, and warm. great extra layer for cold morning and nights. Light and compact enough to stuff into the corner of your pack. It makes a good pillow at night.
