When style columnists talk about layering, it's this exact kind of item they have in mind. The Patagonia Women's Birch White Better Sweater Vest is much more than a vest; it's essentially a heat-insulating sweater that gives you everything you could ever want from an outerwear item, save the sleeves.
That's because it includes the interior drop-in pockets, and the snug stand-up collar that traps in heat. Add it to your favorite casual top and you have an outfit in the making and this outfit will be as comfortable as it is practical to wear, no matter what the weather or the season.
Fabric: 100% polyester knitted fleece dyed with a low-impact process that significantly reduces the use of dyestuffs, energy and water compared to conventional dyeing methods. Fair Trade Certified™ sewing.
