Best cold weather gear yet.
My hubby got this for me when I was going to Montana over Christmas. I wore the vest under a heavy, bulky winter coat. When I got off the train in MT, the temp was -20 not including wind chill. I was there for several weeks and that was the ONLY time I wore my bulky coat. The rest of the time I was warm with a sweatshirt and my Venustas vest with a hat and gloves. And the average temps were below zero my whole trip. I was even out shoveling snow without a bulky coat over the vest. Since then we got vests for both of our daughters and my husband got a fleece jacket for himself. I HIGHLY recommend this vest for anyone who spends time outdoors in winter. We even bought extra batteries to keep with us.
