Columbia Pike Lake™ Thermal Reflective Vest

Purchased this a couple weeks ago. Now that we have sub zero temperatures in Ontario I've had a chance to really test it out. Very very warm, when layered with a thinner jacket or hoodie it will get the job done. Also of note, it is oversized, so go down a size from your typical in order for it to fit you correctly.

I have had the vest for a couple weeks and love the quality. The reflective interior keeps you warm and is very light. Why I rated it a 4 instead of a 5. The size runs a bit on the larger side. Based on their size chart, I was right on the border of a medium and large. I opted to go with the large, in the fear it might be tight with a medium based on their size chart. When I recieved it, it felt like it was an XL. A bit baggy, but for what I wear it for, it didn't matter. If you are like me and in between sizes, opt smaller if you want a more fitting look and feel. The other thing I didn't care for is that the collar of the vest is a bit stiff. Great for blocking wind without zipping up the vest all the way up, but can get annoying because it almost feels like it sits straight up and rubs against your neck and chin as you turn your head. Other than the items I listed above, the vest is great quality, light, and I love the look. Really is a great product and even better when on sale. Still would recommend the product despite the minor flaws.
