Why We Like The Coldfront Down Vest

From fall's crisp treks to winter's corduroy runs, the Coldfront Vest is there to keep our body heat our own. The tightly woven fibers make winds and flurries hard pressed to find a way in, while lofty down traps heat and strategically placed synthetic fill eliminates cold spots.

I like it.

Solid insulating layer under a waterproof jacket. Great top layer for colder weather when you don't need sleeves. I run warm and don't need a lot of layers. This is a great mid layer with something windproof and waterproof over it. Personally, I would like a chest pocket for a more utilitarian outer layer, but I am happy with it regardless.

Great best!

Quality seems great for the price, light weight and solid zipper. Looks great on me and very warm. I mostly wear it on short walks in 20-30 degree weather and it does the trick without being restrictive. Would buy again!

Very warm for a vest but some discoloration around collar

This product is very warm and has kept me warm down to freezing, and toasty above that. However, within a week the collar became discolored / darker. Never had this issue with other jackets but it's worth keeping in mind. It's not enough of an issue for me to want to return it b/c it's performance is so good.

Style is the main thing that got me

I'm 6'7 and my wife got me an XL and it fits ok but just a tad too small. I'm returning it for a XXL

Love it

6'2 190 lbs and the medium is a perfect athletic fit over a few layers of merino. Packs down small and is so light you dont notice it. Great for winter layering and spring/fall shoulder seasons.

very disappointed

This was a gift and though I paid for expedited delivery it arrived way to late. When I opened the package I was disappointed in the level of down loft, seemed skimpy to me for this brand. I would not buy again and will be returning this men's down vest..

Great vest

I was looking to replace my old vest. This vest was the warmest vest I have tried to date. Great buy. Nice and long providing good coverage.

Love the Un Bulky Feel

I use this most of the time as the first layer. Also great around the house.

Not bad, not the greatness I expect from OR

The vest is comfortable and warm! Just what I wanted but I do wish it had a couple more pockets. My only real gripe is the collar inside has stained, which is weird since it barely ever touches my skin on my neck. Tried to wash it with gentle detergent (Woolite) but it looks just as bad.
