<p>A minimalist vest that we kept intentionally simple. Pull on this warm layer for backcountry skiing, climbing or cold days anywhere. It's a function-first design, engineered to last, with a look that's more timeless than trendy. The lightweight insulation surrounds your core with warmth and is ultra-packable to compress down small into its own pocket. We first made the Northern Light series back in 2001, so we can say with authority, that this re-invented style is a keeper too.</p><ul><li>Face fabric is lightweight 20-denier recycled nylon ripstop with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish</li><li>60g EcoSoft recycled synthetic insulation is warm and compressible</li><li>Full-length front YKK zipper with internal storm flap and chinguard</li><li>Insulated zippered hand pockets and inside chest pocket.

Waterproof garments use waterproof-breathable technologies and are fully seam-taped. Water-resistant garments use waterproof-breathable technologies but their seams are not taped. Water-resistant garments repel water and protect against wind but are not made of waterproof fabric.

A windproof garment does not allow any air to permeate the fabric.  A garment with windproof panels has panels of fabric that are totally windproof, but the rest of the garment may not be windproof.  A wind-resistant garment resists some wind, but not as much as a garment that is windproof.

Usually referred to as DWR. A treatment made to fabrics that causes water to bead and run off instead of soaking through.
