Reviews

Warm!

"Be aware vest isnt completely white but has grey through it. It's also a little longer than expected but that's fine. Really warm, makes you look like a sheep."

AB (5/5)

So comfortable!

"Keeps the midsection toasty warm while keeping my arms free."

Fred (5/5)

OMGosh

"OMGosh. So comfy and cuddly. No one can resist the temtpation of touching / hugging me when I wear this. Love the way it feels and warms my core. Its a bit generous . . . consider sizing down as an option."

ClearlyCanadian (5/5)

Collar is super wide

"Not as expected. My regular size is XL, and around neck is 17. 5"", but this XL-sized vest is completely off with collar: about 19""-20""? Should I additionally use scarf? Weird design. . ."

Freddie (3/5)

Big fit.

"I have been buying Icebreaker for a decade, always the same size, XXL. This vest turned out to be a larger than usual product, so I have gone down to XL at 194cm and 116kg. It's less 'white' than the pics show, more of a grey. Should be nice when the weather cools off again."

Traveller (4/5)

Déception: trop ample aux épaules

"Par contre, à la taille, la veste me va comme un gant. C'était un S et normalement, tous les vêtements de taille S, chez Icebreaker, me vont très bien. Dommage, car j'aime le design. J'ai donc retourné le produit."

Le R. (4/5)

Je suis très satisfait, chaud et confortable.

"Super confortable"

Sportif (5/5)

Soft as sheep

"It's really good and very soft."

Hamm (5/5)

Game changer. Wear it non stop

"I'm a 5""6 female and purchased the small size for a trek to Kilimanjaro and trip around South Africa. Could not recommend more. Soft, versatile, warm, looks great, technical, and stylish. Worth it"

Louise (5/5)

Great quality

"Really nice quality vest. Even better with the discount"
