Review: Would have just bought this if it had a hood - Light grey is my preference but bought the black colour with hood first as no other colour has hood option. Best point first; this is one of the few garments among all the sleveless softshells and fleece I have been hunting on UK web sites in the last few years which bothers with a 2-way front zip. This is rare. 2 Way zip is essential since most manufacturers have done away with button flap or pop-stud flap to save costs. If you don't know how vital a 2 way zip is just wear this and compare with the company's other sleeveless garments. Garments with only one way front zip makes it uncomfortable or awkward to sit down. Previously I noticed all one way zipped garments always had busted zips. You will find that too if you job involves getting in and out of vehicles or lots of movement such as bending and sqarting. If this was a jacket I would never buy it because it would make me sweat too much. Of the less established brands I have not ever found a windproof softshell jacket which claims to be windproof (or worse, rain proof) to be breathable. The only windproof softshells I have any good experience are from established manufacturers using expensive materials such as Goretex Windstopper or Goretex Ignium; e.g. Berghaus Sanyia (ceased production) and Mountain Equipment Vulcan (still in production); but these really breathable farments are listed between £200 and £300 each. Both these have under-arm_ventilation zips. As for price I found this to be slightly expensive. I bought Regatta Hewitts III (2 way zip and underarm ventilation zips) on desertcart for way less than £30 and Hewitts VII (one-way zip, under arm ventilation zips) but large "Napoleon" pocket for £26.77 (also desertcart). Why did I buy this ? What are the unique points when You could get Regatta and Craghoppers, both established brands for less (jacket or waist coat styles) ? Well, it is the only sleeveless soft shell with 5 pockets and a hood (which could be zipped off) and the 2-way zip. (The material used would cause me to sweat if it was a busy & active day but minimised by the arm holes for ventilation.) Pity this model is only available in black rather than in light grey which was what drew my attention in the first place. In conclusion 5 stars for features but 4 stars due to uncompetitive pricing. Update. At the end winter of 22/23 I still hadn't worn this body warmer. The 4 favourite windproof jackets mentioned above did not have enough room to accomodate this waist coat on the inside for colder mornings and the garment itself (although correct size Large) did not have room to go on top of the windproof jackets to give extra warmth. Also arm holes are too small if I wanted this to be on top of a hoodie or fleece. But I still like the waist coat thus returning the Large to get the XL. Sizing is fine compared to many made-in-Asia garment sizes but if like me you want do carpentry outdoors and wear on top of other clothes you may consider a size up. Still recommended as it has good features. Hurray, XL arrived and fits over another fleece nicely; just the right combination to wear on a cold morning. Worn it for the first time in action and no problems bending, squating, getting in and out of trucks. Going to keep a lookout for other colours if and when they too have hoods. Notwithstanding the mid layer laminate not being breathable according to my experience with garments (for work and leisure pursuits) , there are enough features on this waistcoat to edge it to 5 stars. Review: Ample pockets, great fit and look - I wasn't sure when I bought this I would like it. More than 8 months on, I can say this is a great product. Ample pockets, great fit and look, and just something I'm delighted to wear when I go out. Especially great during this changing of seasons. ## Features - WATERPROOF & BREATHABLE : This 33,000ft lightweight fleece lined gilet for men features 3-layered material with outer soft shell,TPU membrane mid-layer and inner fleece lining to provide strong protection against the elements.

Has anyone washed the gilet in a washing machine** A: Machine wash at a maximum of 30 c deg. Do not soak. Do not bleach. Do not iron. Do not dry clean. Do not tumble dry. That's what the label has on it. **Q: Does the waiste have an elastic draw string?** A: It is fitted with a draw string but it is out- of- sight . If you open the gilet the draw string has two adjustable tabs at the bottom. **Q: 2 inner patch pockets, are these on each side? If so are they large enough for wallet and phone?** A: Internally, on the right-hand side, a zip pocket that would take both wallet and phone. On the left-hand side, so secure but easy access, an even larger open pocket, and a zipped pocket for an audio item with an entry for a cable for a headset. All done smartly and subtly. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Would have just bought this if it had a hood *by E***R on 29 March 2023* Light grey is my preference but bought the black colour with hood first as no other colour has hood option.
