I live in Northern California and I like to hike year-round. My challenge is that when I hike I tend to sweat, even in the winter months, so I was looking for layers that breath well yet keep me warm even if a little wet. I found the perfect combination in this Nano Puff vest along with Patagonia's R1 Fleece Pullover and a synthetic layer bene... Read Moreath that. This combo wicks moisture away from my skin, and the zippers allow me to regulate warmth and moisture evaporation very well. I also wear this jacket is great to wear casually and find it very comfortable.
I was on the fence for a while about purchasing one of these before finally getting around to it. It has that extra warmth that you cant get with a fleece vest.
Love the product; but sadly the company more. They stand behind their items adhere to environmentally friendly processes. Most companies are wear and toss. Not Patagonia! They do not need advertising because their product quality does it for themselves. All I can say is thank you and I look forward to future business.
Bought this as Christmas gift for husband who tried on early... L is his normal size and it is perfect. Love the bright blue color and seems well made with great pockets.
I have been using Patagonia since they were Great Pacific Iron Works. My closet is filled with their products. They make good stuff in a sensitive manner and sell it at a fair price. I have never had a problem with a Patagonia product and this vest keeps my string of satisfaction intact.
Very high quality. This vest replaces my 20 year old fleece vest. So I'm still getting used to the slight rustle this fabric makes compared to fleece. I wear it inside late fall to early spring as we keep our heat 68F/20C in the winter. I also wear it hiking in the woods, observing wildlife.

from my winter heart
I have bought two of these vests for my husband. He wears one every day- in the summer and winter in Montana, Really. He likes the light weight and the pockets. Will definitely by another this Spring
Patagonia shirts and sweaters that I have purchased run big so I bought a small vest because it is described as a regular fit. I weight 155 and normally buy medium clothes (except Patagonia).
I bought the green one because I loved the gray one I bought last year so much. I'm 5'11'' 170lbs I like the fit of the large but I think I medium would have been ok.
Ordered this and the Micro Puff to see which one I liked more... I went with the nano puff. Arm holes just right, and I preferred the lower pocket position. I did like the big inside pockets in the nano, but the nano was just a little off for me. Micro will be just right. The easy thin layer that adds a good amount of warmth without bulk.
This is the third one I have purchased and it is a spare for when one of my other Patagonia vests dies. I tried to get one repaired that I've had for years but they said they could not do it so I took it to my local place and they did some repairs for me.

The construction is on par with the rest of Patagonias jackets. Its not super toasty all by itself but its perfect for layering over a tshirt or sweater and you wont look stuffed if you throw a light coat over it. Ive been wanting this one for a while and refused to buy a cheaper vest. Im not disappointed.
This is my sixth Nano Puff purchase. I liked the color.
Re the size: historically have selected a medium and I have lost ten pounds since my last purchase. This medium was too tight in the hips.

I like this jacket a lot. Light weight and perfect fit jacket. I love Patagonia products. However I love Patagonia but I am not satisfied with their customer service. They should improve their issue escalation mechanism and provide timely responses.
This is a great piece for casual layering from late spring until early fall. I own two.

This doesnt seem to effect the warmth or wind protection, but it does feel more like wearing a bag.
Please note - this only happens to me after a couple years of wear.
Thank you for the current length of your vests. They used to be a little short, but not anymore.
I travel to SE Asia 7-8 times a year... this a great travel vest for those long plane flights... plus Im a climber and mountain biker... its warm and light and eco friendly! Great job Patagonia!!
Keep up the great work!!
I use Patagonia clothing every day during winter. Whether skiing or going out in the cold, its my go-to jacket, or ski pants. Most clothing fits well but some stuff runs a bit slim. Like jackets around the waist. Im an in between size small/medium so most small items fit but sometimes have to go to a medium to fit my 31 waist.
I use this as a base for starting out on a morning hike. When I get warm, I stuff it into the small spaces of my backpack. Paired with a Houdini windbreaker - Perfect for hiking!
Vest is great, thin and warm. Used for fat biking and skiing in the winter, as well as just casually. I'm 6'2" and about 175 pounds and unfortunately, the vest did not fit.

I ordered a size L (5-10, 185lbs) - fits well. The one measurement they don't specify in the sizing information is the circumference around the buttocks.

Lightweight vest that you can wear with anything. Got it for a gift for my spouse and he loves it. The best runs true to size. Can be worn athletically or casually. Wind resistant, breathable, warm, and comfortable.
Very Disappointed after receiving this as a Christmas gift.
I haven owned used the Nano Jacket for years and love it. I thought the vest would be a lot like the jacket but it is nothing like it as far as insulation.

I own many Patagonia products that I have reused for many years.

Hopefully this is a one off mistake but I won't continue to buy products if this ends up being a trend. Very disappointing.

Lightweight ,but very warm
Deep pockets, nice zipper and pull, great adjustable pull at waist. The grey, silver color is just what I wanted.
I’m in between a medium and large typically. The large fit very well with just a little extra room . when wearing a thicker heavy sweater it fits perfect

I pair it with a Capilene mid weight crew... and if no wind... toured in single digits comfortably... it stands up to years of use.. and the little bit of tenacious tape that stops the tears... just adds to the story.. get one, wear it... you’ll find a way to love it
This is my second nano puff vest and they are my favorite cold weather layering pieces. It’s very lightweight but very warm and not bulky at all. I wish you would make it in more primary colors, maybe a red and a dark green. I already own the navy and the black.
There was mistake on my delivery address and I message Patagonia to resolve the issue on a weekend. I am so surprised with how quickly I got a response and was so thankful that they went above and beyond to resolve the issue with my shipping address. I’m definitely going to order again!
Soft, warm, great fit, packs in itself for easy carry, and makes a great topper for cool days, or mid layer for cold days. I ordered a medium at 5 10. 185 w a 43 inch chest and needed to re-order a large. Large fits great.
I bought this as a gift for my husband. When he opened it, he acted like he didn't need it, asked why I'd bought it (he's always complaining of being cold in the house), and told me I could just send it back (he's very frugal). I told him, OK, I will, but just wear it for the night with the tags on, try it. So he did. The next d... Read Moreay, he reached for it again, however, and told me he thought he might keep it! He's worn it every day since.
It was just what he wanted. He's a medium but he preferred a bit more room, so he selected the large. He runs hot so a vest is better than a jacket in most instances.
Cool vest, they are very “in” for work these days with a button down shirt. It’s functional and sharp looking. I hate to sound label conscious but the Patagonia vest look gives the impression of money and success.
The vest seems very good. I think it looks good. I bought it for running, but I would wear it out socially for sure. It seemed kind of thin just to feel it, but I have tried it out on some runs at about 30 degrees and it has actually been surprisingly warm. I do not tolerate cold well. With just a couple basic long-sleeve synthetic shirts and the V... Read Moreest over the top, I have been plenty warm on all-day long runs.
I have been buying Patagonia products for over 30 years because they last and are functional. This is another fine product I should be able to enjoy for quite some time to come.
I’m 6-1 and slim. The large has a relaxed fit on me that’s not snug but not too loose. I love how it packs into a small travel pillow using the inside chest pocket.
After ten years of skiing, I’m still trying to perfect my layering. I have a nano puff pullover but it has seen better days. So I thought I’d give the vest a try and it was perfect the other day. Just enough warmth with no Michelin man effect. Love it.
I got a large cause I will be wearing it over a sweatshirt, under my ski shell.
Can't beat it for cool days in town combined with a flannel shirt. Great layering when combined with the Nano Puff jacket to beef up on the mountain insulation. 0r to use the 2 +/- as activities and conditions change thru the day.
This is a very versatile piece. Looks good with almost everything. Not as warm as I hoped, but that’s ok. I have other vests for cold weather. Extremely light and packable. Comfortable with outdoor activities In cool weather. Definitely not for sitting around in the cold!
The jacket is exactly as advertised. Feather light. Nice and warm. Allows for great movement. Just started snowing and I am sure it will keep me dry as well.
Love this vest. Goes with just about everything and keeps me warm on cool days. I will say, I'm always surprised by how thin Patagonia outerwear is. That said, it still does keep me warm and add a nice layer.
Hi Allen, thanks for taking the time to write us a review! We're really sorry to hear about the disappointment with the vest.

Perfect
The Nano puff vest is the perfect layer, not too bulky, and versatile for the cool morning. Love it.
Slim fit but not too slim; fits over base layers but is tighter over bulkier layers (like thick fleece.) Fits better than my 6 year-old micro puff vest, pockets are more solid and overall a more comfortable iteration.
Wasn't sure what size to purchase as my chest is the upper end of the medium sizing chart. Ended up getting the medium and it is a perfect fit. I'm 5'8" ~ 165# w a 30" waist 40-41" chest and am able to wear with or without a fleece/sweat shirt under it. As advertised it is super light weight and so far warm (I've ...

I had to! But no joke I love it! Not overly insulated perfect for California winter and seems to be made extremely well. Definitely packs down to nothing it arrived in a small envelope thought they shipped the wrong item. Great product!
Bought this to keep me warm fat biking. Turns out I look for it every time i go out in the cold. It is a light layer that seems to make a huge difference in keeping me comfortable outside. Also the cut and look is pretty stylish even if i got the awkward green color.
I had this vest a few years ago and got rid of it because I wanted a different color. Bought the red this year and I love it. I’m 180, 5’9”, and I wear a medium.

Really like this vest. The only critique is that it may be a touch long. It bulks up at my belly when I sit. Could be me, it happens with other vests as well. Which happens to be a Patagonia fleece vest.
This vest is proving to be a durable aternative to my nano air vest. I let fits well, has good warmth and seems like it will last many years to come.

Got this for a gift and have been told it’s working well. Fits just like the size chart and have been reassured it’s perfect for layering with these fall temps. Got the charcoal/slate gray color and it looks just like the picture. Glad I got this for a gift!
Very lightweight, yet warm. Packs down and is perfect to wear over a shirt or under a jacket for more warmth. Sizing is perfect and doesn't run as tight as some of the more form fitting Patagonia vests and clothing.
I purchased this vest as a winter layer. For where I live and the temps my body run at its great. I usually only wear it on the colder days. Durability has been great
The nano puff vest is extremely versatile. It is thin and warm so you can wear it alone or under a blazer, flannel shirt or wool winter coat when it gets super chilly. It packs up small to stow in your brief case. I have three of these in different colors to match my wardrobe. Has also has a nice snug fit with good length to cover the waste. I am 5... Read More 8", 162 lbs and ordered a medium. Small was too snug. Very thin though and may not be rugged enough for high friction activities.
I replaced a 10 plus year old coat and vest. The store associate said the fit had changed. Very poor fit, much too slim and armholes too high. And no,inside vest pocket. Very obvious you are cutting corners on products now.
Great layer and good fit. Purchased this for a mid layer as extra protection. Arm holes for my 5 '10" 180 lb frame are fitted closely with good movement, but small enough to retain heat. Waist size was spot on. True to Size.
This is arguably one of the most essential clothing items one should own. With its slim profile it makes for the perfect lightweight top or as an extra layer underneath a coat. The fit is simply perfect, especially when being active, with no binding in the shoulders at all. The Nano Puff version is extremely packable and perfect for travel.
Happy with my purchase. Glad I chose the Navy and Black...they look great! Proud to continue to support Patagonia’s mission! Looking forward to wearing them this Fall/Winter.
This is the second color (grey in addition to the black I already had) I have purchased of this vest, finding it to an excellent mix of warmth, fit, and function.
Having a nano puff will eventually lead to owning a nano vest. It sells itself. Warm, light, durable and keeps plastic waste from the landfills. Throw this over an R1 on mild fall days, or can use as a solid mid layer when the snow starts to fall. 100% recommended. For reference 6' 18lbs and the L is a great fit.
I'm 5'10", about 160lbs and I got he medium. The vest is what you've come to expect from Patagonia. Looks great, and quality craftsmanship. My only grip is that the sizes from year-to-year are a little different. I would like it just a little bit slimmer like last years model.
Purchased this for my husband for an outside work vest as it is easier to care for than the down filled "sweater" pullover and other down items. Ordered a larger even though he wears a M in shirts and glad we did - gives him room for layering and good arm movement.
I now own three of these vests in different colors and wear them all the time, indoors and outside, at work or on the trail. I love the snug-ish fit so the vest is never in the way, and how it keeps me warm throughout the year. I wear it over a t-shirt in the spring and summer, or as a layer in other seasons. The cut/fit is perfect, and always look... Read Mores stylish!
Have been a Patagonia devotee since the 80's and love their gear. This vest gets rave reviews everywhere and thought I'd try one at the great on sale price.

Read More used to be but it seems that Patagonia menswear has been sizing on the smallish size lately and I usually am a Medium. At 5'8" and 160# it felt a bit more constricting through the torso than I'm comfortable with. Other than that it looks to be the typical quality Patagonia product you'd expect. The men's Better Sweater Vest I got in Medium was fine and a keeper.
Sorry to hear that the sizing of the vest wasn't quite right. You're welcome to [return](https://is.gd/DQq2nw) it to a Patagonia-owned store or send it in for a refund or merchandise credit.

Vest
This is my second Patagonia vest. I wore out my first one and my only choice for my next one was Patagonia. Excellent fit, thickness and all around comfort. Thanks for such a quality product.
Love it!!! Wear it all the time.. even in my office, urban city environments and European travel!! Looking forward to using it in the outdoors in Yosemite and Joshua Tree in a couple of months.
I work as a ski instructor in Utah, whether its a cold January morning or some springtime laps this vest is amazing! This is the perfect balance between staying warm, yet not too warm. I wear it under my coat while teaching, and in the spring wear it over a flannel. Patagonia does it again!!

I got this vest as a gift last year and absolutely loved it! The fit is true to size,it's warm,light,packs really well and is super versatile.

This is my favorite thing to wear! So light and warm. Looks great.

This is my second Nano Puff Vest. It fits much better than the first one as it is less expansive across my waist. The vest is warm,light and a perfect extra layer of insulation.
Great amount of heat and wind protection in a very lightweight vest. Not very breathable,but I wasn't expecting it to be. I like the fact that it is mostly made of recycled material.

I was never much of a vest person. I have several in my closet that never get worn.
Since I purchased the Nano Puff Vest,I have worn it almost every day. It takes away the morning chill of 50' and is perfectly comfortable at 69'. I live in the mountains and it's usually chilly.
I bought this ahead of a backpacking trip in Yosemite,wanting something light and packable that could add some warmth. It was perfect for the trip,being easy to stuff wherever in my pack,not adding much weight,and adding a perfect layer of warmth during the cold evenings and mornings.
Picked this up last month and love it! Medium seems to be a perfect fit (I'm 5'11"). Cool color scheme. It is warm and is extremely comfortable. Very lightweight. Would buy another.
I'm 5'10",170 lbs.I usually wear size Large in most other brands of clothing,but found the Large for this vest fit more like an XL. Meanwhile,the Medium fit somewhat perfect around my chest and shoulders,it felt a little snug around my waist when zipped and feels like it could maybe use another inch in length.
I'm realizing for... Read More Patagonia,I'm a Medium. The slightly snug fit of the Medium was preferable to having something that was way oversized. (Large looked like I was wearing a Glad bag,and it was only 1 size up.)

I suggest that you spend a good amount of time trying on the different sizes to ensure you get the right fit you're looking for. The Nano Puff is awesome,I even picked up the jacket version.
