Patagonia Isthmus Men's Lined Vest

Layer the Patagonia Isthmus Men's Lined Vest over a flannel on a cold morning and you have easygoing core warmth wrapped in a weather-ready shell. This is a fleece-lined vest built more for daily wear than the deep backcountry, and it shrugs off wind and light rain.

Why we like it:

The plush fleece lining is the comfort you feel first, wrapping your core in soft warmth the moment you zip it up.

Features and Functions:

The shell is a coated recycled nylon faille made with NetPlus fabric from recovered fishing nets, treated with durable water repellent to handle wind and drizzle, and it is lined with a warm double-sided recycled polyester microdenier fleece. Zippered handwarmer pockets, a stand-up collar, and Fair Trade Certified sewing round it into a reliable everyday layer.

Fit and Sizing:

It has a regular, roomy cut with space for a sweater underneath, and the sizing is spot on.

Bottom Line:

It is best for cool-weather town days, commutes and casual outdoor time when you want core warmth without sleeves. Great for guys who want a durable, comfortable everyday vest.
