I guess the name “Generic Puffer Vest” is fitting, since this type of filled vest has been around for quite some time. I ordered this one to replace a very similar vest, although down filled, that has served me well but has finally seen its day.The Generic Vest is attractive and appears expertly sewn; in fact, generally speaking, the needlework done by the Chinese seamsters and seamstresses is an area of their manufacture that often shows impressive expertise. With that in mind, the Generic Vest is 100% polyester, that includes the box sewn filling. It’s a hot summer here in So. Cal., so I can’t put the vest to a cold weather test, but it gets hot fast in the air-conditioned house. Generally, though, since it’s sleeveless, its layered under something or worn over long sleeves. The polyester shell is soft and silky smooth, and with the filling and solid needlework, looks like it will have no problem as a wind breaker. In addition, it zips up to the chin with thick filling around the neck enclosure. Is also very lightweight.The vest incorporates right and left pockets for hand warming and has a wallet sized inside pocket with a flap, but no closure; it seems like it should have a button or a Velcro type adhesion, for example. Where the zipper ends, at the top under the chin, is padding, to prevent it from becoming an irritant. The vest arrives vacuum packed and whether or not the imprinted wrinkles ever come out is yet to be seen, or perhaps, as the instructions suggest, when its hand washed and dried in the shade.During the winter months, whether I layer it or wear it over something, I live in a vest like this; it’s lightweight, versatile, provides warmth and is stuff-able for convenient travel.
