I've coveted this vest for awhile & have a couple High Pile Hats so I knew the fabric would be wonderful! Not sure if it's the exact same fleece, but it's still very nice. After reading reviews and it going on sale, I finally decided to snag one! It's so comfortable, the fit is bit boxy & a little oversized- but I like it! Having a large bust area I got the XL/XXL as I wanted to make sure it comfortably closed with layers & it does. I'm 5'5 & about 190. Some reviews mention the snaps feeling cheap, but I don't agree they seem fine. Could they be better, sure but they could definitely be worse. It would be awesome if it had pockets, but I might just stitch some on myself with a cool fabric if desired. All around, the vest is so snuggly and I highly recommend it! The fabric makes movement so easy for activities and for everyday wear!
