Review on Men'S Stormy Kromer Wool Blend Fleece Soft Shell Barrier Vest by Chris Hart

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Comfortable Durable Versatile Vest

This is an amazing vest that blends the warmth of wool without the itch and the flex of polyester and spandex blend. It is waterproof in light rain as claimed and blocks out wind better than any other vest I have ever owned. I use it for casual dress at the office and playing in the woods (hiking, hunting, fishing). It has the perfect mix of vintage look and new fashion that is also extremely comfortable. I can wear in a good range of temperatures as high as 60F and with a flannel or sweatshirt in temperatures as low as 20F and not feel too cold. The pockets are placed in great spots although I wish there was at least one inside pocket. The only downside for me (other than lacking an inside pocket) is that I wish I bought an XL. I am 6ft tall 200 pounds and I usually wear a large but could have opted for XL to cover below my waistline and to fit more layers under when necessary if it was available (they no long had the color I wanted in XL). Stormy Kromer is an amazing company with amazing products; however, they have discontinued this barrier vest and I hope they bring it back soon (with more pockets). It is worth the money.
