Why We Like The Outdoor Research SuperStrand LT Vest
The Outdoor Research SuperStrand LT Vest is one of our favorite go-tos for lightweight, comfortable, and warm performance in shoulder-season temps. As light, lofty, and soft as 700-800 fill power down, the VerticalX SuperStrand Insulation boosts our core warmth while the durable ripstop nylon fabric works to shed light rain and wind.

Zipper sucks!
EDIT! Wore about 6 times. Zipper is horrible. Avoid. I wouldn't buy another.

Good Vest
The vest is lightweight and compact. I purchased it to use under a shell while hiking. It is a good addition for layering.

Warmth without bulk
This is a thin vest, however it's very warm. It fits pretty much true to size and fits an athletic build well. Packable this vest is versatile and can be used for technical and everyday use.

Perfect extra warmth piece to carry
Its honestly perfect for what I needed. Its very light, I think the color looks great with blacks and Navy's. The packing into its own pocket feature is handy so I always carry it with me and it does a significant difference in warmth

Great Vest; Runs Big
I do like this vest. It is lightweight but provides some warmth for cool days. It is also quite packable. The vest is not insulated enough for super cold days, but for me it works best in the 30's and 40's (F). The black looks nice and can even be worn as casual wear. I wish it had a drawstring on the bottom to cinch it tight around the waist to keep in the warmth. And a chest pocket would also be nice. However, overall it's a nice basic vest that feels well made. NOTE WELL: the sizing of this vest is off. I usually wear a large in Outdoor Research clothing (which I have much of!). However, this large fits like an extra-large. So I had to do an exchange to get a medium. It's not the end of the world, but it's slightly frustrating.

Free Your Arms, Be Brave and Don't Buy Gray
Excellent light vest for keeping it flashy when you need that extra warmth but don't want to sacrifice arm mobility. Added to my wardrobe for winter mixed climbing after a few years of feeling like Ralphie from Christmas Story, and sweet mother of god the difference in comfort is a game changer. I stay just as warm, but don't feel like I have a wad of underwear in my armpits. Great stuff. Sizing runs a bit large - I'm 6'3" 215lbs and XL is a wee bit baggy on me. Great for layering over thicker base layers, but a bit loose if you're headed into the office to turn heads. On a side note, I tend to be pretty conservative with color selection as a white hetero dude - all blues and grays. Tried to go out on a limb here, and the warm yellow tones on this jacket make me feel like a little ball of sunshine. Nice pallet, OR. Thanks for giving the bois an alternative to the norm.

Worked like a charm!
Super light weight and compresses easily to take up little room in your backpack. Surprisingly warm for the weight and thickness. It was my mid-layer for early mornings. I have zero negative comments to say. Would buy it again in a heart beat.

Functional Insulating Midlayer
I use this vest as extra insulation on colder ski tours and as an outer layer during spring weather. The upside of this vest is that it is light and can be packed down into itself. This is a good way to keep your pack from filling as you shed layers. There are two zippered pockets and two internal pockets that are good for stowing glove liners, hats, beer cans, and face masks. The reason for four stars instead of five is that the zipper on my jacket is stiff to connect and disconnect and that there is no chest pocket for my phone.

Really great lightweight Vest
Light and warm and stuffable. I'm 5'10 185lbs 40-41in chest and it fits great as a mid layer or over a light long sleeve fleece.
