Women's Winterloft™ Vest

Down got an upgrade. The Winterloft™ Vest’s 700‑fill insulation blends recycled down with reclaimed Merino wool for lightweight performance. A windproof construction and a 100% recycled ripstop shell with a non‑PFC DWR finish helps keeps weather out, while a Merino‑blend interior draft flap and secure hand pockets help keep warmth in all winter long.

Down Got An Upgrade — 700-Fill Insulation
Insulation is 700 fill power, made with 80% recycled waterfowl down, blended with 20% reclaimed Merino wool for added performance. The recycled down delivers the loft and compressibility of virgin down at a fraction of the virgin-fiber footprint; the reclaimed Merino adds natural odor resistance and moisture management to a fill category that doesn’t typically have either.
Windproof Recycled Ripstop Shell
A 100% recycled ripstop nylon shell is built for durability and finished with a non-PFC DWR designed for lightweight, weather-resistant protection. The ripstop weave resists small tears from pack straps, branches, and the kind of abrasion that ends a standard winter jacket mid-season. The DWR sheds light snow and rain without the environmental cost of PFCs.
Windproof Construction
Windproof construction for total wind protection — the shell fabric and the seam sealing block wind penetration across the chest and core where cold air hits hardest. The windproof build is what separates the Winterloft™ from a standard insulated vest; it lets the down loft do its job without wind collapsing the fill.
Merino-Blend Interior Draft Flap
A Merino blend at the interior draft flap is designed to keep you warm where the zipper would otherwise let cold air in. The Merino-blend fabric at the chin and chest adds a soft, moisture-managing next-to-skin touch where most insulated vests use bare ripstop. The natural lanolin in the Merino blend adds a slight water resistance to the most exposed seam.
Secure Hand Pockets
Secure zip hand pockets lined with the Merino-blend interior fabric — warm hands against Merino next to skin rather than cold against bare ripstop nylon. The pocket bags double as internal stow when the vest isn’t being worn, and the zip closure keeps keys and phone secure on the move.
Sleeveless Core Warmth
The sleeveless construction warms the core where heat loss hits hardest on cold days, while leaving the arms free for full range of motion. The vest is the Winterloft™ insulation system for the days when a full jacket would overheat on the climb but a sweater would let the wind through — the active cold-weather piece.
Regular Fit For Layering
Our regular fit is intended to give you room to move without additional bulk. Layers cleanly over a Women’s Classic Thermal Merino base layer or Women’s Classic Thermal hoodie without compressing the loft of the Winterloft™ insulation. The sleeveless cut allows unrestricted arm movement for carrying a bag, walking the dog, or pushing a stroller.

Washing
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Wash separately — the recycled down + Merino blend benefits from isolated washing to prevent other garments’ lint or dye from affecting the fill and Merino-touch lining. Use a mild down-safe detergent; avoid fabric softeners and bleach, which coat the Merino fibers and degrade the DWR finish on the shell.
Drying
Tumble dry low. The combination of recycled down and Merino loft benefits from low-heat tumble drying with a clean tennis ball or dryer ball to restore fill loft. High heat can shrink the Merino-touch lining and damage the ripstop shell’s DWR finish over time.
Bleach & Iron
Do not bleach. Do not iron. Bleach breaks down Merino wool fibers and degrades the ripstop shell; iron heat can scorch the Merino-blend lining and melt the DWR finish on the outer shell.
Dry Cleaning
Do not dry clean. The harsh solvents used in commercial dry cleaning strip the natural lanolin from the Merino-wool lining, leaving fibers brittle, and degrade the DWR finish on the shell — both of which are core to the vest’s weather performance.
Storage
Store loosely hung or folded in a dry, breathable space. Do not compress in a stuff sack for long periods — recycled down + Merino blend insulation loses loft when stored compressed for weeks at a time. A loose hang in the closet preserves the fill volume and the Merino-touch lining’s hand-feel across seasons.

Merino Layer System — SW003176

Built For

Everyday Winter Commute
15° – 35°F
The morning walk to the car, the school pickup line, the coffee run that turns into a longer walk than planned. The windproof ripstop shell and 700-fill recycled down core warmth handle the cold without overheating on indoor transitions; the sleeveless cut gives full arm freedom for carrying a tote, a kid, or a leash.
Cold-Weather Travel
10° – 40°F
A packable insulated vest that compresses into a carry-on, slides under a Hardshell when the weather turns, and handles the cool airplane cabin without bulk. The 700-fill recycled down delivers serious warmth for the weight; the sleeveless construction means it doesn’t fight with seatbelt positioning on long flights.
Active Cold Days
10° – 35°F
The Winterloft™ insulation system for the days when a full jacket would overheat on the climb but a sweater would let the wind through. Hiking the shoulder-season trail, the winter trailhead loop, the cross-country ski warm-up. The windproof shell blocks the breeze on the ridge; the sleeveless cut dumps heat on the climb.
Town & Around-Town
15° – 40°F
Lunch meetings, weekend markets, the holiday shopping loop, the winter patio dinner. The Winterloft™ Vest is the dressier alternative to a puffer jacket — clean silhouette, secure zip hand pockets, and a Merino-blend draft flap that adds a smart detail at the front zipper. Sleeveless so it layers under a coat without bulk.
Everyday Layering

Layer Under It

The sleeveless cut means the arms are the layering zone. Pair the Winterloft™ Vest with a Merino long-sleeve base layer or hoodie, and the system is complete — the vest adds windproof core warmth, the long-sleeve covers the arms, and the combination stays slim under a shell.

  • Women’s Classic Thermal Merino crew cold-morning warmth
  • Women’s Classic Thermal Merino bottom matched system underneath
  • Women’s Intraknit™ All-Season crew active cold-day prep
  • Merino long-sleeve tee or henley everyday underlayer
Everyday Layering

Layer Over It

The Winterloft™ Vest is the mid-layer spot your outer shell is waiting to go over. The sleeveless cut compresses cleanly under a Hardshell or packable rain jacket without adding bulk under the arms, where a long-sleeve mid-layer would fight the shell’s range of motion.

  • Hardshell jacket wet + cold weather protection
  • Packable rain jacket stowable wet-weather shell
  • Women’s Winterloft™ Hooded Jacket (SW003174) long-sleeve + hood companion
  • Women’s Edgewood Tunic or Sparwood Crew lifestyle layering underneath (reversed)
