Vests have so many advantages: They’re warm, light, comfortable indoors and out, fit under other layers without binding up your arms and the list goes on. Outdoors folks have long understood the advantages of Vests – but new fabrications have caused a resurgence in popularity. My Patagonia vest is the most-used piece of insulation that I own all winter long here in Louisiana. I love using it for kayaking and kayak fishing. The lack of arms allow freedom of movement you don’t have in a fleece jacket and you don’t overheat. For backpacking I love my vest to keep from overheating as well as for the weight and compactibility. If you want a truly functional and comfortable piece of gear to wear all winter long – come by and take a look at our great stock of Vests from North Face and Patagonia soon!
