Patagonia M Down sweater vest

• Comfort Features: Includes a full-length front zipper with a draft flap to minimize heat loss. The vest typically has a high collar or fleece-lined chin guard for added comfort.

• Pockets: Equipped with secure, zippered handwarmer pockets for storing essentials and keeping your hands warm. Some versions may also include an internal pocket for additional storage.
