Functional, beautiful, versatile
This is a well made vest with a soft and luxurious feel. You can dress it up or dress it down. It goes with so many things. It travels well without creasing and it's very warm.

Lovely vest
Love the style and fabric. Just enough added warmth to take the chill off and the pockets are a nice bonus.

Cute Vest, But Fabric is Thin
I like the cut and shape of this vest, but the fabric was thinner than I expected. I have the hooded wool vest from a few years ago, and that fabric is much thicker. For this vest, I really wanted the cream color, but EF only had it in black in my size.

Vest for all times of day
Love style and it is very well made. Normally petite but for this got medium regular as
otherwise it would be too short.

Versatile piece
I have this vest in all the colors it was available in that’s how much I love it. Perfect to layer for Colorado weather in the mountains. Can’t go wrong with this vest.

I love vests!
This soft wool vest is such a comfortable way to add a little polish to a casual outfit, a little warmth when it might be chilly, a fresh look to pieces already in the wardrobe.

Perfect Little Vest
Saw this vest at full price and couldn’t justify it, as I already have a number of EF vests. But, when it was at a 70% off price, I didn’t hesitate. I’ve lived in it for weeks. It keeps me warm and looks great with wool slacks, jeans, and corduroys - basically, my whole winter wardrobe. If one is still around in your size, don’t hesitate!

Arrived worn
Vest arrived covered in hair and lint, and the label was falling off. Disappointing to receive a worn/used item.

Very warm and cozy.
The felted wool is very nice and warm. I would have preferred several more buttons as there are gaps between the buttons but I felt a larger size would make the arm holes too big. Also the design is for someone with smaller hips and even though there are side slits I opened them up higher to make more room. I also would have preferred the V neck be deeper as I would never wear it without a sweater or blouse underneath. Well that is why I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars. I still love it over a sweater and under a sweater jacket. Very warm and cozy.

Oversized armholes
The weight, length and color of this vest was great. The shoulders fit nicely but the armholes, gaped to a large degree and the vest had to be returned. I bought a xs.

Sizing and fit issue
Nice fabric and design, though I’d prefer a cleaner look without the pockets. The styles generally are getting boxier and boxier- sizing down might help but using the measurements on the sizing chart is hardly a help anymore. I am a long time EF purchaser, but beginning to look to other brands because of sizing and design issues. A chart with garment measurements would go a long way towards helping me decide which garments and sizes are more likely to work well for me. I am sending maybe 3 items back for everyone that I am keeping.

The Perfect Wardrobe Addition
Vests are my ultimate go-to piece for layering, and I couldn't ask for a nicer one for my style than this boiled wool cutie. I'm a pretty casual dresser, and this vest fits the bill for that, but the wool is so nice and the finishes are so beautiful, it can easily be dressed up. I ordered a size S which has a slight boxy fit (I'm 5'2", 126 lbs) that works well for my style. An XS would have been a better choice for a more tailored fit.

Great 3rd piece!
Great boiled wool vest! The cut is flattering, length good for over skirts, high waisted pants and dresses. Adds a bit of warmth without adding bulk.

The Vest is very unique, very well made and designed. It can be worn with so many things like a T-Shirt, blouse, or button-down shirt, every time it looks perfect.

A sleek surprise
I took a chance on this piece. I love boiled wool and I tried it on in the store. It is a finishing touch to the type of outfits I wear, usually slacks and a sweater.The lines of the vest give my silhouette a more polished, streamlined look. It adds a layer for warmth and a bit of texture. Very compact so good for travel.

Good basic vest
Unfortunately there were no small sizes left and the medium was huge on me, so I had to return it.

Perfect layering garment
Vest Is perfect to layer over a turtleneck top and will definitely keep you warm in winter. I love the simple lines that gives any outfit a smart classic look.

Perfect
I got an extra small and it fit perfectly with no gaping armholes as I read from other reviews. I'm a size 4, 36B, 145 lbs. It goes nicely with the Flex Ponte Lantern Pants but I imagine would go well with any high-waisted pants. Also, can wear it to the office or casual (home office :)) Well made!

Love this vest. Particularly for winter. It ups the look with style. A plain shirt and jeans now look really smart. Worn this a lot already.

Just received this and I’ll be wearing it open with my EF extra fine merino sweaters. I love it in black, size L is true.
I haven’t had a vest in my wardrobe for many years and am excited to wear it.

Goes with everything
I was pleased that this vest came in petite sizes. PS fits my 5'1" frame well. I am finding the black wool goes with everything and makes a wonderful extra layer on cold days in the Arizona desert.

Nice little warm grey vest!
This vest is such a classic basic staple if you like vests, which I do. The fit is a little cropped and boxy but not too much. For my 5’5” frame it is what I wanted. The color and boiled wool is really nice. I think it is overpriced, but as you can see by my review I splurged and bought it!

Great stylish vest for fall/winter
Great fall: winter closet addition for work or leisure. Soft feel . It has a nice boxy cut that fits well. I have a size large ( my regular size) . It’s a tad big, but not enough to size down.
