Kelvin Aerolite Vest Reviews

Great vest

It’s so light, I wear it under everything because it adds warmth without making your arms bulky and heavy. I’m 5”11 180lbs and had to return the medium I got for a large and it fits good now. Medium woudnt let me zip it up with how tight it was.

Great Suprise

When it first arrived, I was shocked at how thin it was. I was concerned that it would not be what I wanted and would have to return. To my great surprise, it was exactly what I wanted. It had very little bulk but was a perfect insulating layer. I is perfect for keeping the wind out.

Great vest!

I use it as a base layer or stand alone. Warmth without the bulk or weight and holds up to everyday use like a champ! This is my second one! The first one I’ve had for 3 years and it’s just the same as the day I bought it! Insulation hasn’t balled up after tons of washings one bit!

This vest is wonderful

I bought this vest for everyday use (in a Florida winter) and it has been perfect. Keeps me warm but never overheating. I love that the arm holes are snug to keep the warm air trapped. This has been a perfect combo underneath the mountain jacket to give a little warmth but with protection from the elements.

Kelvin Aerolite Vest

This vest was developed to replace the Fahrenheit Vest. This is the first Sitka item among the many that I own that I feel to be inferior to its predecessor. It fits entirely different and does not provide the same warmth. It is lighter, fits loosely and simply does not give the sense of efficiency needed. My recommendation and request is to resume production of the Fahrenheit vest.

Worst purchase you can make

I’ve never been a vest guy. Bought this vest to be more of very packable layering item. Well, let’s just say that now it’s all I want to wear. I got it in subalpine, now I’m thinking about buying 2 more. The weight is perfect, warm is excellent, stops enough wind, and is the best feeling vest I’ve ever worn. Will definitely buy another soon.

Light but holds warmth

Happy with how it turned out maybe slightly thinner than I thought but not a negative because it’s also slightly warmer than I thought. Maybeeeee runs just a touch big but pretty true to size, not enough to go down a size.

Tough best

Good tough vest use it 6 to 7 days a week over hoodies or long sleeves and has held up! No rips or gashes from brush or in and out of blinds. Very happy with this purchase and can clean it up and put it on for going to town on a date! Got to get the blood and dirt off it! It’s not to warm but helps hold head on the core!!

I have a number of Kelvin Aerolite products. The warm to weight factor is fantastic. Easily packs down to a small bundle. Because of this be careful with the exterior it is easily torn and can stain.
