Bernadro Neoprene Quilted Vest

Purchased a size small to wear for Big Bear in the fall. It’s true to size. The fit of this vest gives my straight body a waist line and the carefully placed quilted lines help accentuate. Neoprene on the sides are smooth and high quality. Neck does come high up so I folded them down and gives it that collared shirt look I thought was cute. Glad I went with this instead of another Patagonia vest.

I love love love this. It’s the best vest I’ve ever owned. It’s not too sporty, not too casual, not too dressy, it’s just perfect with any outfit - jeans and a sweater, leggings and a top… really goes with everything. It doesn’t look big when it’s unzipped and is very flattering when you zip it up - shows off your feminine curves. I just love it! And the color is perfectly between dark gray and black.

I don't know if I just didn't read the description very well or not, but I was surprised by many of the little touches about this vest. Not only is it super light yet warm with the use of some great fabrics, that look like they will hold up for quite awhile, but it also has a hidden hood in the high collar and can fold up into its own little backpack that actually came with straps to wear it on your back! (see photo that looks like she is wearing suspenders) It's lovely long and flattering as well. This is a gift I'm super excited to give my 5'10" daughter, but i'm literally considering getting myself one as well! Worthwhile to also say that it's filled with humanely sourced feathers and yet is still machine washable... so cool.
