Overview
Built for hunters who need adaptable warmth without adding bulk, this insulated vest works well as a mid- to outer-layer piece in changing conditions. Its 100 grams of Primaloft Gold Cross Core insulation and micro ripstop polyester construction are designed to fit easily into a layering system, while the PFC-free DWR treatment adds another practical layer of weather protection. Zippered hand pockets and stretch elastic bound armholes support everyday wear in the field, and it pairs naturally with the XKG series jackets for colder hunts or extended glassing sessions.

Pros

- 100 grams of Primaloft Gold Cross Core insulation for added warmth

- PFC-free DWR treatment adds a useful weather-resistant finish
- Zippered hand pockets provide secure storage for small essentials

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed as a mid-to-outer layer, so it may not replace a full jacket when conditions turn more exposed or severe.
- The vest format adds core warmth while leaving the arms uncovered, which is useful for layering but less protective than a sleeved insulated piece.
- Its low-bulk, packable design is a strength, but that also means it is intended to complement a system rather than serve as a standalone cold-weather solution.
- PFC-free DWR treatment can help with light moisture, but it is not the same as full waterproof protection.
