PrimaLoft® One
PrimaLoft® One is the ultimate microfiber insulation.
Ultra fine fibers are specially treated in a patented process and then combined into an insulating core that is incredibly soft, lightweight and water resistant. PrimaLoft One absorbs 3 times less water, is 14% warmer when dry and is 24% warmer when wet than the competitive insulation.
The human body is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit but often ends up in places that threaten to make it far colder than that! PrimaLoft insulates your body to keep it comfortable and conserve energy even in extreme cold.

I have had one of these vests for 10 years and it still looks good. During our year in Europe I wore it almost every day except for July and August. Even then it was great for some of the cooler evenings. I don't know how many times i've washed it, but it still looks like new.

I first bought this vest in Turtle Dove, which is sort of off-white. I normally stay away from white for fear of dirt, but I really liked the black side panels and the black lining on the collar, plus I figured that the off-white color would be more forgiving of dirt.The vest is a little shorter than I normally like, but it is a perfect length for layering under a jacket. I read other reviews where some people complained about the arms being too large, but the skirt helps keep wind out and I think that they will be great for cushioning under a heavy pack. I liked this vest so much that I bought the light blue color as well! I plan on wearing these mostly for hiking in spring/fall (in the mid-west) as my main warmth layer. This vest also has the Dri-Clime lined pockets which are so soft! This vest is very sleek and feminine and a good choice especially if you don't want to spend the money on an expensive down vest.
