Men's Steens Mountain Vest

There are zillions of fleece vests out there, but this stands out for the quality construction and the overall savoir-faire of this company in making outerwear. It’s the details here that impress soon as you put this garment on. It’s easy to zip up, comfortable in fit, a collar that does not scratch and the fabric feels wonderfully soft, but with body (not a floppy rag). The zipper pulls on the pockets are large and easy to access. The main closure zipper is easy to clasp and pull. Those sound mundane, but try a poorer quality vest that has floppy fabric, no interfacing in the construction, which makes it difficult to zip up with cheap small zippers too lightweight for the fabric, too small zipper pulls, tiny pockets, and you will appreciate the details that make this vest worth your investment. Our search for the perfect lightweight fleece vest landed here. Look no further. This is it. (Note: this is lightweight, not medium or heavyweight for wintertime in Maine.). This review is for the color, Ancient Fossil.

I am very pleased with this fleece vest. Fits true to size and is warm and comfortable.

Have two and they fit great! Comfortable and warm but not bulky!

Fits slightly snug.. but over all great quality!

True to size, very warm and comfy. Looks exactly like photo.

Nice vest. Repeat buy. Good fit. Nice color. Great value!

i love this vest! exactly what i was looking for, light weight, good looking, decent color choices...couldn't ask for more, and a trusted brand as well. i got it cause i don't usually wear a coat in the new england winters but considering my age now, and the super cold temps we've been having, i wanted a vest to just retain some warmth on my body. this is not an arctic rated product by any stretch and i wasn't looking for one. it serves the intended purpose i wanted. it does the job, keeps my upper torso plenty warm and out of the wind while keeping my arms free. paired with a long sleeved tee and flannel shirt, i'm good to go. i wouldn't spend hours outside on single digit temp days with just this vest, but i'm good to go from house to warm truck and back again. short forays on those freezing days. the collar stands tall also to protect the neck. i can use this right through to spring, and maybe on those chilly summer evenings. fits my needs. i found sizing ran true. i got my normal size, 3x. i'm a big guy and hard to fit. i'm glad i didn't get the recommended 2x size, the 3 is great. not snug either, with some room for layers. i'm very happy with this product.

great fit, excellent quality!
