33,000ft Women’s Lightweight Running Vest Outerwear with Pockets, Windproof Sleeveless Jacket for Golf Hiking Travel

Great investment
Ive been wearing this vest for a good month now and absolutely love everything about it. I live in a snowy cold state and work at a construction site, in a work trailer for hours. The vest is lightweight so it can easily be worn under a coat. It’s definitely wind resistant. I wear this vest over a cami/long sleeve underlayer/flannel shirt. I also wear heavy thermal overalls. This vest holds heat/core temp without wearing a coat for short ventures outside. Of course be wise about the temps and skin exposure. It fits well, it has a nice curve at the waist but doesn’t feel restricted. Pockets with zippers are awesome and the high zip neck keeps the cold away. All around a great investment. Recommend highly.

Finally decided the limitations outweighted all the good
I ordered a Medium in Black. I am about 5’5″ and weigh about108, so I am sort of “lean” with a full chest. I was really excited due to the fact that a YTer is using this vest. It fit me very well, definitely tapered at the waist. The material is a heavier 100% polyester as opposed to being thin very light. It is very well made. However, one side of the stand up collar bothered me, the collar top on the side of the breast zip pocket. The zipper is covered by a “fold” of material and it made that side of the collar seem “lumpy” and it rubbed my neck/jawline area. I tried folding the collar down, but that side still stuck out awkwardly. The pockets didn’t cut if for me. The two zippered “hand warmer” pockets are fine but I just didn’t really like the slit pocket at my shoulder. It is pretty deep going toward the side of the vest, but if you have a larger phone, it’s an awkward fit. I’m not sure it would be very useful because I put in a couple of smaller items but I didn’t find it very well positioned and I wasn’t using the full space in the pocket. The two large inner pockets are OK BUT, there is no velcro and no zippers. I was hoping I could put some important things in a vest which could then move through screening at an airport easily. However, those pockets didn’t make me feel secure. There is not way to sew velcro on because there is no lining. I thought of “Liquid Stitch” to use to affix velcro but didn’t want to get involved with this. There is a nice zippered pocked on the lower back of the vest, but since the vest is long, I found sitting with something in the back a bit much unless I only put small items in it, again not using the full space in the pocket. Also, my vest came with a logo on the lower back which I didn’t love. This vest has reflective qualities which would be great if I were running or walking in the dark. I don’t do this so this is not something I need. My need is more for travel at this point, so I will return this vest. I do have a lighter weight vest and have ordered a couple of more…they are men’s…The one I have fits very well and I would keep it if the other two which are a different material don’t work out. These all have more pockets as they are more utility vests but they are not over the top AND they all have zippered interior pockets, which is very important to me.In summary…this 33000ft vest is a well-crafted item that could be good for the right person!

Well Made, Beautiful Vest
I bought this vest along with a fleece jacket and lightweight raincoat for a trip to Europe in order to layer them as needed.My mother and side bought Scottevests for about 5 times more than I paid for this one. I feel this 33,000ft vest is just as well made! My mother even offered to buy a Scottevest for me and I could not justify that for a vest I was not sure I would wear much after the trip to Europe. I love this 33,000ft vest and will definitely wear it other than for possible future trips.I also did not see a need for so many pockets! I feel this 33, 000ft has just enough posters with six total. The only thing I did to mine was add Velcro to the two inside front pockets just to help keep from having anything fall out of them when the vest is off. This accounts for the two rectangular areas of stitching visible in the photograph.To help with comparing colors; the raincoat was described as being “purple.” It is a pastel purple/pinkish color depending on lighting and what it is up against. The fleece jacket under the vest was described as “lavender” color. In my opinion is it pastel purple or lavender. This 33,000ft vest was described as also being “lavender” color. I would not agree since it has a lot of gray in it. It’s a gorgeous light purple/grayish color, just not what I would call “lavender.”Size seems a bit off to me. I had to return my first one and go up a size. My normal size seemed a bit tight through the bust in the this brand. It made it a bit too snug and not as comfortable as I prefer. Going up a size was almost too much, but it does give the option of not just wearing it under the fleece jacket, but over it if I prefer. Kind of a nice option. I almost like it over the fleece jacket better. (1) Because using the pockets for wallet, passport, etc., it’s easier to get to. (2) there’s not the extra fabric around the sleeve hole. Having to up a size for the bust line resulted in the armhole having excess fabric. I debated doing a dart for that, but decided it would be more noticeable than leaving as is.It’s a nice lightweight. The style is nice and the fabric has good wind resistance. Washability wise, while I would have preferred not having to hang it up to dry, it was not a deal breaker. It is highly reflective. I could have used a bit less there, but it sure made my mother happy! Mom’s 89 and still worries about my sister’s and my safety, probably more because she wants to make sure we’re around to care for her. So, at least my being so reflective wearing this vest she’s appeased.

Seems well made large fits perfect

I love this vest so much, I bought another two! Great sizing, comfortable material that moves with me, deep pockets and washes well.
