Awesome, all around vest.

I have the old Monkey jacket for about 12 years and still in good shape. The new vest fit better in Large as I'm 5 10, 60lbs. Still very warm but seems that fur-like fleece is not that dense. Anyway, I already love the vest and see many years of service ahead.

My initial review of the Men's Polartec High loft vest.

This is a very versatile layer that works well as a mid layer. Have not had much opportunity to fully test this equipment yet, but so far meets all initial criteria for me.

Skiers vest I bought it for a trip to Snowmass and with 20 inches of fresh powder day one it worked perfectly

Warm and fits well We needed a vest that was warm and close fitting with the iPhone pocket and this one proved to be the perfect solution

Love this vest

Already own two Monkey Man long sleeves. Adding the vest was a no-brainer. Super warm, lush fabric. Great fit. Perfect for Toronto's icky weather.

My brother tried to take it home

I’ve been wearing this vest quite a bit and I love how warm it keeps my core without creating bulk in my sleeves when I layer up. The longer back helps keep the vest from riding up and exposing your back to the cold. My brother came into town for a visit and asked for something to help keep him warm. I let him borrow the vest and he was ready to take it back home with him. I had to ask for it back before he left wearing it.

Fits the Lanky Man

I had been looking for a decent vest to use as a core layer in my ski kit for some time. I needed something that would fit my lanky 6'6" frame and wanted something that would have a soft-feel collar to go against my neck. The Monkey Fleece vest looked to meet my needs so I purchased one in size medium. The length is great and the collar material is extremely comfortable. An added perk, in the black color, I think it's also a sharp vest to wear out on the town.
