The vest adds a huge amount of warmth and insulation. In the past I just wore a thin fleece underneath the Mackinaw coat but with the vest I only need a good long sleeved shirt. And it looks great.

I really like this vest. The wool is heavy and feels a bit higher quality than a Filson. I am 6’1’ and 195 pounds and the large fits me well. The stitching and attention to detail are very good. Well worth the money. My only gripe is the new stormy Kromer label on the front of the vest. It really cheapens the look of the vest. I regard these as heritage items in that new label really spoiled it. I have a SK vest from a few years ago that does not have the label it looks so much better. Please please give this feedback to the designer team. They are spoiling the brand.
I've yet to receive my vest yet, although it was shipped a couple of weeks ago. Not panicking yet ,but if it doesn't show up by the end of the week I'm going to start to get worried that UPS has lost my parcel. ---Hi Rodney, If you still have not received your vest, please reach out to us so we can look further into this for you.

Great fit and features. 5’11” 180 lbs medium. Color black picks up all fluff in vicinity so i keep a fluff roller nearby.
It's a warm wool vest. Nice length and nice fit. I am 6'4", 38" waist, 200#. Size XL fits perfectly. An XL Long would have been too long and an XXL would have been to loose all around. Only thing I do not like is the tacky looking Stormy Kromer label sewn into the left front. Please go to some other branding or just do not put this on your clothing line. Looks tacky.
The vest isn’t too bad. It had some crooked stitching and it could use a nice liner. It seems sort cheap without a liner.
The vest was great quality and we loved it. Unfortunately, the size 3X seemed to run small and did not fit. It did fit perfectly for our son who is a 2X.
This is a wonderful vest. It looks very sharp, according to my wife, who was impressed with the look and cut. At 5'11 and ~170 lbs with a long torso, the Large is a good fit for me ... possibly a touch big, but a Medium would be too small. That may help. I had trouble wading through previous reviews and the comments on size/fit. As for pockets ... I thought that the right breast pocket would hold a phone, but NO. It's really for glasses. There are two left breast pockets: one for a phone and the other for a pen/pencil. The patch pockets and just as expected and are very comfortable. I'm taking one star off, only because I believe in having at least one more or less secure inner pocket. YMMV. It's a great vest with few if any equals.
Great wool vest
