I have owned a nanopuff jacket for several years and it's my favorite coat for winter. With cooler temps approaching I was in the market for a new vest, and ordered this during the recent sale. I can wear both S and M depending on the item and the desired fit, and bought this in M so I can wear it over a thick hoodie or sweater. I love the lig...

I am not a vest person but I have hardly had a day when I have not worn this. I live in a place with a wide swing in daily temperature and this is a perfect layer, both indoors and out. It is so light you don't know you are wearing it. No suggestions for improvement - maybe more colors?
Third time purchasing this vest, only because I wear it 24/7 almost 10 months of the year. Lightweight, fits easily as layer under whatever you want, never stinks, washes perfectly, tough as anything, best vest ever. I am 5ft8/135 lbs and medium fits perfectly.

Will not keep you dry in solid rain, but great to repel snow. Absolutely no complaints.
Fit, color and overall look are great. Will wait till we get thru thus hot summer before I get to wear it, but I know it will work well for our late October trip to CO to hike.
Love these vests. May run a little small but I like it a little roomy so I go for the medium which is the perfect size for me. I like to wear a light sweater or shirt underneath.

Amazing fit, perfect athleisure wear
I love wearing this vest for morning walks and daily errands. Great for SF microclimates.
There is exactly one thing I do not like about this vest: unlike the micro-puff vests, which had (note "had" -- they've been dc'd, apparently) there are NO interior pockets at all, not a small useless zippered one, not two large highly functional ones. There are just the two hand pockets. If you don't wan't an interior... Read More pocket for snacks and iPhones..., then this is a perfectly great jacket for you.

Versatile Vest
Wore this climbing early in the morning and then out to dinner. Comfortable, warm, and packs down well. As always Patagonia durable so it will last forever.
This is a great vest. Fits so well and good quality. I have it in other colors and the pink simply wasn't a good color on me. Waiting for more colors to come out. I love Patagonia products!
Looking forwards to experimenting with this vest layer when cooler temperatures arrive. Fits like a glove. Hope it will travel lighter than a jacket w sleeves.
First of all, the fit is true to the size, so please purchase the size you usually wear, and you will feel the magic of Patagonia!!
Well done, beautiful white, the pockets and zippers are what you expect in a quality vest like this
Gorgeous, rich color (dark ruby) that pairs well. Tailored, flattering fit. Ultralight but still warm. Pockets are well placed and spacious. The only negative is the collar, which is not lined and will show the slightest grease from even a few times of wearing. Same problem as observed for the Nanopuff jacket; the collar there is also not lined. Ot... Read Moreherwise, it's perfect and very pleasant to wear.
I like this vest as a good light layer but I ordered the Large which usually fits me well however I had to exchange for a XL because the waist fit small on the L. Got the XL but the upper part around the arms now fits too large. I will still use it but it does not fit as I had expected.

Great product, just wish it came in curvy sizes
I love this vest so much (it's great for traveling since it's lightweight and compact), but wish the sizing were more inclusive. I'm petite with curves so I had to size up to an XL. Going up a size made it possible for me to zip the vest up, but now the vest is too long overall and gapes a bit at the shoulders. I'll still wear i... Read Moret but it's a bit awkward. Sigh.

You might try our [Nano-Air Vest](https://www.patagonia.com/product/womens-nano-air-vest/84277.html) which is "slim" fit but has stretch in the fabric.

I love this vest! It works with casual attire and work attire. it is cozy and yet light weight and totally classy!

A favorite
Im usually a small but this vest in S was slightly short so I waited a year til the size medium was available. Its nicer than other brands of white vests, more comfortable, more versatile. Hope the nano puff stays in production!
The nano puff technology is like no other on the market - so a vest in this material is likewise, like no other. Vest has a nice feminine-cut fit and it is very easy to layer with. It's thinness belies its warmth and it breathes very well. I'd have one in every color if I could!
I love this nano.. I bought my first one around 8 years ago and it is beginning to look a bit old. So I decided to give myself a new one and keep the old one for the garden. The Nano is so much warmer than you would expect, but it is so light weight that you would not believe it could be so warm. Patagonia rocksQ!
I use this daily as an alternative to a sweater or jacket. I actually made the purchase because I have the nano puff longer coat an I use the vest under the coat for extra cold Virginia winter days.
Its my favorite!
I have this vest in black and love it but bought the white & returned it. Unfortunately, can see filling through white fabric. Maybe better in off-white something similar?
Amazing vest, but the current colors choices are boring!
I love my nano puff vest so much, and unfortunately I am in the market for a new one. I was hoping to replace my grapeseed green color, and I was disappointed to see the very boring neutral color options currently available.

Hoping to see some more variety in the future.
This is a great vest. I have the jacket in XL and it is a little tight for layering, so I tried
the XXL. I find the jump between the XL and the XXL (at over 3.5 inches both measured and per the charts) to be an awfully big shift. But I think it will work out and be comfy for me.
I was so happy to buy this vest- I know its quality and needed a white vest. Sadly this is Birch White which apparently is a yellowish white. I wear a lot of long sleeve white t shirts in Fall Winter so to have a yellow-ish white against a true white makes the vest look dirty/old/dingy. So so so sad!!

Nice, but
I have the sweater fleece vest in L. This was too small. Returned.
I have this in black and white. The black Ive had for 6 years and wear it pretty much daily in the winter months. The white one gets less wear mostly due to not wanting to stain it. The vests are so lightweight, poly filled, and keep you so so so toasty! This is a winter must have. If you want to stay warm, you need this. I wash inside out, in cold... Read More water in a protective bag, and hang dry. It dries fast and has no shrinkage. Wonderful!
I am 52, 120# and pear-shaped. I got this vest in a medium because while the small did fit it was a bit snug over my bottom and I wanted it to be loose so I could layer a sweater underneath. I love the navy colorits very versatile. Its a great layering piece and I would definitely buy again.
I love this vest and wear it for casual wear as well as walking. It is light weight and warm. Perfect for TX weather. I am 52 & weigh 110. I bought an XS & it fits perfectly.
This vest serves as the perfect light weight jacket. It is very comfortable and stylish. I have it in several colors. I usually take an XS but had to buy an XXS for it to fit well.
I wear this vest in addition to a thermal top and heavy coat outside in very cold weather. Then I can take off the heavier coat if needed, and still feel very warm and comfortable.
The sizing is off on this vest. Usually wear M\L but because I knew I was going to layer I ordered a L. The waist is fine but the arms are so big and it bunches up on the top chest area. The M would be too snug at the waist and or tight if I zipped up which is why I kept the L.
I purchased with the intent for casual wear, but the extra small ended up being too small. I did go according to the size chart, however, its better to size up as it feels as if it runs a bit small.
This vest is my new normal. I wear it daily indoors and out open or zipped depending on temperature control needed. I love layers, but not on my underarms. Keeps my core comfortable whether on the trail or around town.
Hello Carol, we're sorry the length did not work out on the Women's Nano Puff Vest. Please feel free to [return or exchange](https://www.patagonia.com/returns.html) it. We are also standing by with garment measurements, please let us know if that might help.

I now have three of these vests
This is my third Nano Puff vest; I've had my first two for a few years but my dogs and cats have put some holes in them so I wanted a third intact one for wearing out and about. They're great-warm, lightweight, fit really well and look good. I love that there's such a great down alternative.
I have several of these vests in different colors because I get so much wear out of them. I usually take an XS but the XXS fits me perfect and snug to keep me warm. Very practical item...love them!
I bought this after I had purchased the Nano Puff jacket. Oh my! I love this jacket and now I love the vest. It is light weight and warm but not cumbersome. A must have in a wardrobe.
- super lightweight, minimal bulk, just right for layering! Flattering fit, not too snug or loose, lots of give- in an active job where I spend time in walk in freezers, or outdoors in mid atlantic winters. Added bonus, it's very resistant to tears from my dogs sharp claws when she's over-the-top excited to see me!
I wear this almost every day during the cold weather and because it's thin it makes a great layering piece. The size small fit perfectly except it was tight across the chest so I exchanged for a medium, which is a bit large everywhere else. I wish you could add a little extra room in the chest for those that are not built straight up and down.... Read More :)
This is just right! I wear it over long sleeved shirts or a light sweater. It's just right! The pockets are large enough to hold my phone, keys, or mittens. It's perfect for a day when the temps are in the 40s-50s and not needing a coat, but ideal for an extra layer when it is chilly and not needing a heavy sweater.
I havent have this jacket long enough to tell how warm it is but it is very thin and I would have like something a little more fluffy. Also, I dont like the elastic around the armholes. It makes it a little cheap looking.
I ordered an XS which was too small so I did an on-line exchange for a size Small. This was a very easy process from beginning to end and the size small arrived very fast.
I love this vest! I wear it as an extra layer over shirts and sweaters at home and underneath my winter jacket as an insulating layer for hiking/skiing. It's fitted and provides a ton of warmth for how thin it is. I've worn it almost every day since I received it!
It is amazing. I could wear it everyday. In fact, its in my outfit queue for tomorrow. I'm a school teacher and it's exactly the layer of warmth I need in my classroom. I look professional and polished!
I bought this for my wife to replace a tired and and worn Patagonia vest (that found a new home via Family Services). It's super light, great quality, and the fit is perfect.

It is not a heavy or bulky vest. Runs very true to size. Not much room for a bulky sweater underneath. This is for wearing under a jacket or wearing wi... Read Moreth a thin shirt underneath.
This vest goes everywhere and is easy to wash up after high output activities like mountain biking or ski touring in time to layer over a flannel on the way to work Monday morning.
I love the teal blue color of this vest. Its not too thick and its easy to layer. I feel that it runs a little small, however, and got the medium so that I can wear it over a sweatshirt. Perfect for SoCal winter layering.
I'm very happy with this item. It replaced a similar nano puff I had worn hard for at least 15 years. I was hesitant to give my old one up but am thrilled that the new one fits well and is just what I needed. I have hardly taken it off - yep I'm typing this in it now.

You may want to go one size up if layering the vest over a heavy sweater. Otherwise, the fit is pretty much true to size, except a little snug in hips.

Also, it holds up to numerous machine washings and dryings in dryer.
It is a nice vest, but much too long. The armpits are too low and the waist falls at my hips. All your products are too long these days and I have to return everything. You need to add petite sizing.

A must have
Great to layer over or under other garments. Perfect to keep in my pack. Love the zip interior pocket for keeping phone/keys safe.
This is the PERFECT weight vest for literally any activity. Love it for casual wear, work wear, and even with a nicer outfit! Will definitely be purchasing in another color at some point!!
I returned this vest. I have been looking for a replacement for my 'better sweater vest' which I love but it is covered in dog hair. I thought this one would be a good option but it is missing the interior patch pockets that I really need, esp. when I travel. So I returned it and the hunt continues.
You are still welcome to contact us about an exchange!

Perfect Outer Layer & Cute
This is my second Nano Puff vest. After six years of a lot of wear I decided it was time for a new one. I love them. Perfect for warding off a chill in the air - inside or outside. Not binding at all, so great for even rugged hiking.
I had no idea how much this vest would improve my life. I have been wearing it almost every day for my 2 mile walk with my dog.

Perfect over sweater or blouse or layered running tops. I live in a warmer dryer climate. 50s-60s- low 70s in fall, winter, spring. I run in my old one in high 30s - low 50s in the morning.
This vest is great I like the length and the slenderizing waistline. What it needs is a 2 way zipper. When zipped and then the wearer sits down it rides up around the waist and then the neck of the vest goes up to the wearers ears. This could be easily remedied with an up/down zipper.

This vest is warm yet lightweight. The cut is very comfortable and feminine. I dislike vests or jackets that add pressure to the back of my neck when hiking, but I didn't even give the collar on this vest a thought.

Love this vest and wear it just about every day of my life. I walk the park trails with my 2 pups each morning and this 3-season vest keeps me organized and warm.

This is the mid layer I didnt know I needed. Its the perfect layer for when you need just a hint of extra warmth, but not too much.
I wore this vest during a cold windy drizzly beach weekend on the Oregon coast. I wore it over a thin wool layer and under a wind / rain layer and I was the most comfortable person there that weekend.
The vest runs small. I am usually wear small tops but small in this vest is way too tight. Medium fits just right. The vest itself is very warm and looks great, just order one size bigger.
This is a great company that makes great products, and they care about the planet!
This vest is the perfect weight for many uses, I wind up wearing it all the time. Only wish it had a double zipper on it, up and down adjustments.

I love Patagonia vests and I have been looking for a vest in this color for a while. Finally I have one! I ordered the Dark Ruby and its a gorgeous color and great for Fall. I find that the Nano Puff style vest runs a little big and the XS fits me perfectly. For reference I am about 115 lbs.
You cannot beat the Nano Puff vest for light weight and packability. The fit is just a tiny bit snug (I am usually a size 10, 5'5, 142 lbs). But the Medium easily fits over a flannel shirt or wool or cap baselayer. I prefer this fit, as I can choose to layer it under other outerwear.
This is not the first nano-puff garment I have purchased. l love wearing them as they are so light you hardly know you have them on, yet warm without overheating.
I wanted this vest to fit so badly. I love the color and the weight but it was too long and too tight on my short waisted body, I am 52 and weigh about 128lb. I returned it but am looking for another cute but comfy vest. I have other Patagonia jackets that fit fine.
I have purchased several of these vests in the past. This one seems to lack the amount of filling (down) Im used to. I saw one on another person at a large gathering and it looked the same way mine does - flat - like the filling was missing. Im not sure whats going on with this one, but its definitely different from my previous purchases.
Hi Patricia, thanks for taking the time to write a review. The Nano Puff is actually made with synthetic insulation and is intended to be a lightweight style vest.

The Patagonia nano puff vest is excellent. Light enough that you dont feel overwhelmed by fabric but still so warm. The color is great - I bought it in the summer so that Im ready for action come fall and winter!
I love all things Patagonia but the fit is usually off for me. In order to get the proper fit on top, the length is too long. Patagonia doesnt seem to take into consideration that women have curves.
I love the versatility of this vest. Lightweight, easy to pack, and excellent temperature control. I use it to do just about everything.
Thank you Patagonia for being such a customer service oriented company and most importantly socially conscience

Answers to these questions for this one: No give in the fabric, so don't plan on too much stretch. Warm but not poofy which is nice.

Nice light weight vest
First off, the blue is gorgeous. It really is stunning. The vest is lightweight but keeps you warm. Definitely lighter weight than the down sweaters.
I absolutely loved the vest but unfortunately had to return it since it was too long. It would be nice if Patagonia would make their items in petite sizes.
I was looking for something lighter than my down vest to wear in the spring weather. I bought a nano vest a few years ago and they have definitely changed the fit. The small fits true to size where as my other one is a medium. I am a true small size person. I love the dark blue color. I know that I will get a lot of use out of this.
Love this vest! I had wanted a better puffy vest than the old, unbranded one I had been using from Goodwill these last several years- it just didnt have good insulating power. But this, oh baby!

I love this vest. It fits great , it looks great, and I love the color. Perfect weight for me. Its the 4th Nano puff vest I own. Every one should have at least one.

Jackets and sweaters get too warm. Their sleeves will sometimes get caught on the plants, causing damage. This vest is just the right amount of warm and plant friendly.
