warm yet thin. nice soft shell feel.
zipper was very sticky at first but now seems to be fine.

Fits well...Bought it through the outlet so the pricing was inline. Looking forward to many years of use.

Comments about Ibex Tuck Vest:

I am a very warm blooded person and that means that a normal softshell or jacket tends to be far too warm for me, especially if I'm moving at all. I've been researching softshell vests for a couple of years and had decided on the Haglofs Speed Vest until I found the Ibex vests. As I'm a huge fan of wool and all of it's pluses over other materials. Well, having worn the vest for an extended period over a few days I believe that I've definitely made the right choice. Thanks Ibex!

Comments about Ibex Tuck Vest:

I would consider this an all season vest. Great to layer with. Perfect to wear just with a t shirt. i wish the collar was a bit shorter though.

Going up a mountain in fall or winter, I tend to run hot; a full softshell leaves me overheated. But you're going to encounter wind, and snow is going to fall on you when your pack hits low-hanging branches, so you need something.

This Ibex climawool softshell vest -- called the Tuck now, but there have been a number of different names for it over the years (why is that...?) -- is just the something I need. Paired with the Zephyr zip up shirt, this vest stops the wind, keeps snow off my shoulders, helps me retain some -- but not too much -- heat, and enables me to regulate temperature well. After 10 - 15 mins of getting warmed up with a jacket on, this vest and the Zephyr are my standard winter combo by themselves, even down into single digits. I have gotten and continue to get a LOT of use of out it.

That said, you should not look at it as a vest that will keep you warm standing still, like one of their heavy wool vests, or a down vest, though on a mild to cool windy day, this will be just right for standing around at a kids soccer game.
