Reviews

Perfect Puffer Vest

"I searched high and low for a lightweight but still warm feather vest. I wanted something that was fairly priced too and Kathmandu came in tops compared to all the other brands. Its the perfect fit and I wanted a slightly larger one and wasn't sure whether to order a small or medium. I ordered the small and it fits perfectly with some space for a sweater underneath. Very happy with this purchase."
