Women's Smartloft Vest

This versatile vest balances warmth and movement with a 50% recycled wool insulation and a four‑way stretch fabric paneled in key mobility zones. A wind-resistant, non-PFC DWR front panel helps block the elements while a Merino blend interior lining adds extra coziness.

50% Recycled Wool Insulation
Proprietary Smartloft insulation uses 50% recycled wool blended with reprocessed wool and polyester to deliver serious loft and warmth without the bulk of a traditional puffy. Wool insulation retains heat even when damp and packs down small.
Wind-Resistant Front Panel
The recycled polyester front face is treated with a non-PFC DWR (durable water repellent) finish that sheds light precipitation and blocks wind. Lighter and more packable than a hard shell, tougher than a fleece.
Four-Way Stretch Mobility Zones
Stretch panels under the arms and through the sides move with you — climbing, skinning, and reaching don't fight the vest. The 54% recycled polyester / 38% Merino / 8% elastane blend gives full range without sag.
Merino Blend Interior Lining
The inside is lined with a 56% Merino / 44% recycled polyester blend that moves sweat off skin and stays comfortable across changing output. No clammy plastic against your base layer.
Two Secure External Pockets
Two zippered hand pockets keep essentials in place — phone, beanie, gloves, snacks. The zippers are low-profile and lie flat under a pack hipbelt or harness.
Regular Fit With Room To Move
Regular fit intended to layer over a base layer or under a shell without compressing the insulation. Roomy enough for unrestricted arm movement, trim enough to wear under a pack-friendly outer layer.
Multi-Activity Versatility
Built for cold-weather hiking, climbing, skiing, and around-town wear. The vest form factor keeps your core warm without restricting arm movement or overheating on the up.

Washing
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors. Cold water protects the wool insulation and the non-PFC DWR finish on the shell — warm water can degrade both over time. Use a mild, technical wash like Nikwax Tech Wash to maintain DWR performance.
Drying
Tumble dry low. The wool insulation needs a short low-heat tumble to fully re-loft after washing — high heat can shrink the wool fibers and reduce the insulation's loft and warmth. Add a couple of clean tennis balls to the dryer to break up insulation clumps.
Ironing & Decoration
Cool iron as needed. Do not iron decoration. Printed graphics, heat-transfer logos, and color-block panels can scorch or peel under direct high heat — and high heat on the shell can damage the DWR finish.
Dry Cleaning
Do not dry clean. The solvents used in commercial dry cleaning strip the natural lanolin from the wool insulation and degrade the non-PFC DWR finish on the shell — both of which are core to the vest's performance.
DWR Maintenance
After extended use, the non-PFC DWR finish on the front panel will wear and the shell will start to wet out instead of beading water. Re-treat with a spray-on or wash-in DWR product like Nikwax TX Direct to restore water-shedding performance without sending the vest to a landfill.
Storage
Store uncompressed in a dry, breathable space. Wool insulation loses loft when stored tightly compressed for long periods — hanging or loose-folding keeps the fill ready to perform.

Merino Layer System — SW003199

Built For

Cold-Weather Hiking
20° – 45°F
Layer over a base layer for shoulder-season trails. Vest keeps your core warm on breaks and at camp while leaving arms free to use trekking poles and adjust packs.
Skin-Track Days
10° – 30°F
Touring and lift-served laps where output swings hard. Vest traps core heat on the lift ride without overheating on the skin-up.
Daily Winter Wear
15° – 40°F
Over a long-sleeve tee on the morning commute, the dog walk, the barn. The wind-resistant front and Merino-lined interior keep core warmth up without restricting your arms.
Camp Evenings
Any Cold Night
Throw it on over a base layer the moment you get to camp. Wool insulation traps heat when you're not moving and the wind-resistant face cuts evening gusts.
Under It

Layer Over A Base

The Smartloft vest is built to layer over a Merino base layer or mid-base. Pair it with the Women's Classic Thermal Merino Base Layer Crew or 1/4 Zip to manage moisture from the inside while the vest handles the outside cold.

  • Merino crew base moisture management
  • Merino 1/4 zip base vent on the up
  • Long-sleeve tee alone mid-output days
  • Intraknit thermal 3D-knit fit, no bunch
Over It

Add A Shell

For full weather protection, layer a hard shell jacket over the vest. The vest holds heat close to your body, the shell blocks wind, snow, and rain — together they cover cold and wet without the bulk of an insulated jacket.

  • Hardshell jacket full weather protection
  • Light windshell cuts chill on ridges
  • Ski shell storm-day layering
  • Softshell jacket breathable high output

Prepared with intention.

Every product is carefully inspected and handled by our team before it ships. From fit and function to final details, we make sure each piece is ready for the outdoors ahead—so you can focus on the experience, not the gear.
