Why We Like The Stratus X Hooded Vest

Winter hiking rewards you with the most pristine backdrops, but faces you with some pretty big challenges. One of the biggest is dressing right. Layer up too much and you'll be drenches with sweat when you're just halfway to the summit, but not enough will leave you freezing as soon as the first icy breeze whips by. Icebreaker's Stratus X Hooded Vest helps you find the perfect in between with lofty wool insulation that keeps you toasty, but breathes and wicks away sweat so you don't have to feel bogged down after a steep pitch gets the sweat rolling. Since it skips sleeves, you'll find it easier to drop heat when you get working hard, but without jeopardizing your core insulation, so your engine stays primed while you're out.

Very pleased

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great design features, long at back, deep pockets and well fitting hood. Perfect for frosty morning walks - excellent product! I purchased a medium as I wanted room for thick icebreaker real fleece.underneath

Merinoloft hooded vest

I love this vest. The fitted shape allows this to be a go anywhere, any place garment and not look out of place. Zippered pockets are a plus for keeping items safe especially when removing/adding layers when on the move.

Feminine fit

The feminine fit on this vest makes it the most flattering of any I’ve tried. Quite tapered and snug in the waist on my straighter figure. I am 5’2” / 50kg and ordered a size small. I cannot wear a heavy jumper underneath, but a base or mid layer fits nicely which suits my needs perfectly. I love the high, narrower neck as it keeps the cold wind out when fully zipped up.

Small But Comfy

It was originally bought for myself. I used the sizing guidance before choosing the size. However, I could hardly breathe after trying it on. Luckily, it fits my 13-year-old girl who complains about her skinny body shape all the time perfectly. She said that she liked it, as it was stylish, comfortable and light.

Beautiful Fit

I'm an Australian size 6, and this vest fits perfectly, with room for clothing underneath. My husband said that the vest has a lovely pattern on the back, which is nice for someone to see when they are following you up a trail. I feel that the neck is too high as it is a bit irritating, but it's probably nice when it is really cold. I think that the vest would be perfect with maybe something like a press-stud or clip to hold the tips of the collar to the vest, so that they didn't rub on your neck, or make it feel a little itchy or irritated. Also, it is a shame that the hood can't be tucked into the back of the collar, or removed. If the vest had the changes I mentioned, I would have given it 5 stars!

Versatile, well fitting vest

Excellent vest, true to size - great in the length to keep extra warm. Surprisingly compact but still keeps you warm. Handy to have pockets with zips, including an interior one. Perfect for exercise during lockdown! Purchased on sale, unsure if its worth the standard RRP.

Very nice vest

Loved this one, a lot warmer than my old one. I can probably use it whole year round as we get a lot of cold days here down south.. definitely a keeper. Just a bit smaller on the fit, would recommend go a size up..

A Woman's Body

No vest sizes made to fit curvier women. I ordered the XL & I am usually size 14 or 16.The XL is their biggest size. I couldn't even get the zipper together on the bottom & no way would it have fitted over my chest. Upon looking at my sister n laws new zipper merino hoodie from you, it is obvious it is made for a long, skinny torso as well. Plus the XL is more expensive than the Small...fair play possibly... more materials to house our bigger figures? Or is it fat shaming? You do not offer a size that would fit one of NZ's modern day great athletes; Dame Valerie Adams. I believe you need to update your sizing Icebreaker. Disappointed that I cannot even go to the next size bc it does not exist.
