Goose Down Vest
PostedDecember 17, 2010
ProsGreat Value, Comfortable, toasty and soft, has a nice shape/fit
I wish I could live in this vest! The womens has a nice fit and the vest sits a little closer to the body than the coat - but it is comfortable. The soft material in the neck area is great. The vest itself is nice, soft, and warm. It takes the chill out of an old drafty house. I particularly like it when traveling on airplanes that can be cold and drafty - I sleep well when I wear this that also protects my neck area. It packs into a small volume (but doesn't come with a case). It has nice outer and inner pockets that make it great for walking the dog or using it as an outer layer (keeping credit card, keys, etc). There is also an inner pocket for money or an ipod etc. My mother just asked for one for Christmas based on my raving about it and this is the one I recently bought.
The material is a little shinny but is fine for using in-door. I just bought the parka (given how much I like the vest and its warmth) and wonder if it will a problem in wet snow/sleet conditions as the material does not resist water.

ProsDurable, Great Value, Comfortable, Performing as Expected
Goose Down vest in small. Small vest chest size runs larger then the matching down jacket. Glad I called and got garment size from representative and listened to her because I had just bought the down jacket in a medium. Small vest is still a bit large for me but will put on a heavy layer under the vest. This vest does not come in Ex-small. Too bad if someone is really petite, small will be too large.

Proslarger than described
I am normally a small in outerwear. I ordered the small and it was like a trash bag on me! Don't trust the size chart- order a size smaller than the size chart tells you to order for your measurements!

ProsGreat Value, Comfortable, Performing as Expected
I am happy with my latest purchase. The vest fits well and is warm. I appreciate the soft collar and rubber zipper tab. I may even purchase another one in a different color.
LLBean, thank you for making durable products and for your excellent customer service. I am always happy how quickly my purchases are delivered!
