Love this vest

Help R womens down vest
"Amazing colour,love how lightweight it is."
This vest is gently warm
"This vest is gently warm without being too hot. It is a snug fit that is neat under other clothes. It also looks trim as a top layer. Great pockets outside and inside. The zip is very easy to connect and zip up or down. It’s especially appreciated because it keeps my sore arthritic spine and neck warm and reduces pain from tight muscles."
