33,000ft Men's Lightweight Softshell Golf Vest Outerwear Zip Up Fleece

I bought this solely for airline travel. Sunglasses, car keys, a ticket for airport parking, and headphones/airbuds immediately go into the many pockets as I'm walking from my car to the terminal. Eventually, cell phone(s), smartwatch, and wallet go in the pockets for TSA/scanning - I take the vest off and throw it in the bin with my backpack. Eventually, my 11" Amazon Tablet very snugly fits into the inside pocket before I board the plane. I can easily fit a water bottle (and other stuff) in the other inside pocket. This allows me to quickly throw my backpack in the overhead bin, and when I sit down, I have everything I need for my flight. This saves me A LOT of hassle at the airport. The vest is 100% worth it for what I bought it for. Is it well-made? Yes, this vest has extensive use. The inside large pockets (made of mesh) should hold up to use and abuse for an estimated 5 years. Are the shell and zippers well-made? Yes. Above average. Is it warm? I don't really get cold. It was functional for a 3-block walk in 25-degree weather in Fargo, ND. I would say this is more of a mid-Fall/mid-Spring weight. I'll wear this over a short-sleeve shirt when I travel to warmer climates. I don't overheat, but I do take it off when I get to my rental car. This works for my purposes, and I would buy it again.

I purchased this vest primarily for an undergarment with pockets to wear during snow skiing. The ski jacket I bought doesn't have enough pockets for my phone, lift pass, ear buds, lip balm, eye drops, credit cards/cash, etc... I wasn't looking for excessive bulk and many jackets didn't qualify because I have long arms. I have not tested the vest as to its level of being windproof as it was used as a mid-layer in my system. I will say that the vest is breathable as I was warm under the vest but didn't notice any excessive moisture to cause a concern. I'm 6', 1" and 185lbs slender build and I can wear a tee shirt and thin fleece jacket under this size medium vest and retain a perfect fit. There is a draw string at the bottom of the vest to form fit as necessary and stop and drafts from entering the core. I use the chest pocket to easily fit my phone and with the tabs included on the zipper grommets I can access the zippers with my ski gloves on. Speaking of zippers, I'm surprised at the quality of the zippers so far, they start with ease and glide smoothly without any snags. The zippers are even smoother than the ones on my name brand ski coat. We'll see how long they last but I've been out 3 full days so far and the vest isn't showing any signs of wear. I did have a loose thread to clip off along the bottom of the jacket when new, but this area has not opened up or shown any other unusual wear. I'll update this review if any occurs in the future. I would recommend this vest to anyone looking for a good fitting vest. I'm glad that I didn't order a large as it would have been way too big.

Well, folks, gather 'round for the thrilling tale of my love affair with this vest – a rollercoaster of emotions awaits! Buckle up, because this review is about to take you on a wild ride. First things first, this vest is like the James Bond of outerwear. It's got the looks, the charm, and all the functionality you could ever dream of. The fit? Perfecto! The weight? Just right! The pockets? Oh, don't get me started on those magical pouches of delight – they're like tiny treasure chests for your essentials. I practically want to marry this vest; that's how much I love it. But, ah, here comes the plot twist – the dark side of my relationship with this vest. You see, I live in an area with a very mild climate that is about 90% perfect throughout the year. So, I rely on this vest as my trusty daily outer layer, ready to save me from slight chill but perfectly exposed to daytime sun. Now, here's where things get spicy. When the weather is just a tad bit warm, this vest becomes my worst frenemy. It's like a sauna in there! I cannot drive with this vest on. If I'm in the car for more than 10 minutes, this vest has got to go. It's like the vest has a vendetta against my comfort. This is because the vest does not breath… I think it’s the waterproof nature of the vest that just holds in body heat and when there’s no breeze, you overwhelmingly feel it. My other fleece vests do not have this issue, but then again… the pockets… the look… the features are all missing on those other vests. In summary, my relationship with this vest is a real Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde situation. On one hand, I'm head over heels in love with its features, but on the other, it can be as pleasant as getting stuck in a hot car with a backseat driver. So there you have it, folks – it's a love-hate saga, the kind that keeps life interesting. Grab your popcorn, and let the vest drama continue!

I am a big "L" so when i first put on the vest I noticed a very nice fit-not snug around the belly, long hem, and large sleeve holes. The second I noticed was the thickness and nice lining. The shell material seams durable and breathable. The liner is a fleece type. Its soft and thick enough to add comfort and warmth. The great thing about this vest are the pockets. The hand pockets are deep and lined so things stay secure and hands stay warm. The two outer pockets are super handy. One had a zipper and the other velcro which is totally handy for me because I am having to constantly put on and take off a mask. 3 inner pockets are also useful. One zippered and two deep pockets. Now, what really makes this vest special is the double zipper in front. It great for when you go to the restroom and have to unbuckle stuff and then tuck in stuff as well as when you are seated driving for long time. The zippers are also top notch and have the little rope doggle for easy grip. Twice as much as the other vest I got but a million times better.

This vest is wonderful. It's water AND stain proof! I spilled some blueberries on it and cleaned right off NO MARKS AT ALL! Because it's longer than my others, the double zips are great to keep it from bunching up when sitting, plenty of secure pockets. It's warm, comfortable and good looking. I'd give it more stars if I could!

Regardless of price, this is about as good a vest as you can buy and I own many. I got a Medium but am 6ft and 190# as I think a vest needs to be slight body hugging. Fit is good. The thickness, number of pockets, and look are top notch. The exterior is not quite as soft as many of my vests but that is how this vest can better block the wind and rain. Seems to be average to above average warmth. This vest will find its home in my golf bag. The warmth, wind resistance and moisture resistance make it ideal. will end with mention that the zippers seem to be more substantial quality then what I might have expected. Time will tell how they hold up.

I ordered the vest for cool weather running and as a mid layer for cross country skiing. I'm slim at 5 feet 11 inches and 160 pounds, and wanted a vest that was close fitting without being restrictive. I was skeptical of the size chart, as it indicated I should by the Small, but I went ahead and ordered. Much to my surprise, the vest fits me perfectly and is long enough for my height. If one carries more weight, or to wear over a bulky top, then go up a size. Beyond the sizing concern, this is an excellent quality vest for the price. Really like the stretch in the outer fabric and the numerous pockets. I don't think you could match this with a big name product at triple the price!!!

Caution! This vest is two sizes too large. I usually wear a large but ordered this in an XL as per Amazon's recommendation. The XL is more like an XXL or even an XXXL, I returned it and ordered a large, it was amazingly oversized as well. I'm returning the L and ordering a medium. 3rd times a charm, right? I'm obviously satisfied with the quality and construction but Amazon and 33,000ft have really errored the sizing on this one.

Comfy, nice inside, nice colour, good pockets. Helps block the wind for sure!

Good value product loaded with a number of handy pockets.

It's very comfortable and the construction is great. Material and look are awesome. Great value!

Vest seemed okay. But sizing chart is WRONG. Measurements lead you to buying item too small. And then YOU have to PAY to return.

Très belle et bien ajusté!
