Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
Pros:
- true to size - I'm a size 2-4, 5'6", 115 lbs, 32D. The XS fits me perfectly unless I was putting something bulky underneath...but I'm not.
- sides aren't quilted like the front and back, which takes away from some of the bulk you get with other vests; so it's more slimming.
- sits about 1-1.5" shorter/more cropped on the hips than the NorthFace and Outdoor Research vests which IMO is more flattering
- bottom can be cinched to keep out drafts
- exterior pockets zip and are large enough for iPhone 7+
Cons:
- one interior pocket is small but can fit sunglasses or (barely) my iPhone 7+...however, pocket is inside chest-high so if you put anything at all in it, one boob will look weird. Not good, Marmot.

Nice vest and true to size and has plenty of room to wear a thick sweater underneath. It's warm but not puffy. Slimming and flattering.

I love this vest. It's flattering and light and just perfect. I purchased one of these (for Chicago), and then purchased another one to keep in my home in Scottsdale. There seems to be an overwhelming tendency to dress "dark" in the winter, and I just can't do it. I like white and light or bright colors year round, and at no time are they needed more than winter in the Midwest. I wear it every chance I get, in either location!

Review for Zappos VIP Points(What's this?)
I read reviews before I purchase and I will gladly confirm the ones already posted that helped me decide. I own a lightweight Marmot down jacket that I bring when I travel or go to the beach at night. I love it. So I figured the vest would be as good. So far so good. It's trim, sleek, does what I need it to do. I did not want an big puffy vest. This fits the bill.

I bought this vest to replace my old Kitzbuhel vest that I've had for many years. Excellent quality, well made and functional vest. I love it.

I love this vest which I have in two colors. It's long enough and a bit curvy for a very nice fit. Keep making it forever and more colors like red, green and blue!

Beautifully crafted, great fit, quality vest. I bought 2 (black and Flamingo pink) in 2005/6 and finally had to replace the black one since it was my go to jacket and was showing its age.
Whether skiing, cool N Cal eves or staying warm inside my Michigan home in the winter, it serves well.

Sweet vest! Fits very true to size and keeps me warm enough without it being too warm. Love the black sides; slenderizing.

This is a really cute thinner down, fitted vest. It is very functional but the seams along the sides make it flexible and flattering. I ordered the small which fits well (I am 5'10" and a size 6). I ordered the berry color (purple) which I usually do not like but this is a pretty reddish lavender color. The color is fleece lined on the inside which makes it very soft and comfortable. This is a good vest for work outs and casual winter wear. It is also more reasonably priced and a better deal than some of the higher end vests.

It's lightweight, comfortable and stylist. It fits true to size. I ordered the black in medium (I'm 5ft 3 inches and weigh 128 lbs) to go with a teal top that I had. If it came in brown, I would definitely order another one.

This vest used to be insulated with "Primaloft" brand but now uses "3m thinsulate" instead. While I'm sure there is no tangible difference in heat retention the comfort level went down. Primaloft version had a nice puffy collar that blocked more wind and more padding on the bottom draw string. The new version seems to dig into abdomen a bit too much for my liking.
Verdict: Go back to thicker insulation where the comfort matters.

The material looks great, but unfortunately I had to return it. The vest is made for tall women with smaller bust lines. The vest is too big, but not curvy enough. It is also too long.

This fit perfectly around the hips but was HUGE in the chest. If you are hourglass shaped it will be great, bit you are pear it is not going to work.
