This vest is light weight but warm. Best part is the front chest pocket. Nice option.
Men's AKHG Blackburn Standard Fit Vest
Alaska’s microclimates already give weather reporters heartburn, but get close to Mount Blackburn – the Wrangell Mountains’ highest peak – and all bets are off. Glaciers, valleys, lakes and shifting winds mean a good set of layers is the only way to come prepared. Blackburn mid layers make the versatile, ready-for-anything core of the rest of your kit. That’s because they offer exceptional wicking and enough warmth to keep you comfortable under a heavy shell or on their own in daily bone-chilling weather. Channeled fleece on the inside holds heat, while the smooth face won’t catch on a shell or coat as you get ready. Layer up with yours and show the mountains what Blackburn is all about.
- Excellent mid-layer performance – though you’re bound to grab it every time you’re headed out the door
- Midweight polyester fleece wicks and evaporates sweat from first layers
- Anti-microbial 100% polyester fabric moves easy under layers
- Smooth-face fleece with heat-trapping channels on the inside holds in more core heat
- Odor-fighting performance keeps pals from “picking up your scent”
- Full-zip front plus stand-up collar and hem binding to block icy drafts from blowing in
- 3 pockets that zip to keep contents secure
- Standard Fit
- Imported

Just the thing to take the chill off an energy-saving home... I found the 2x too small and the 3x slightly too large but I kept it and use it most every day.
First time buyer in December. I bought 2 shirts and wore them for work. Washed them..no shrinkage. Wore them again and washed them again. Same thing. Great fit and looks and you can feel the quality. I bought eight more shirts including 3 of the polos and three of the wrinkle free shirts. I also bought two vests - same excellent quality. I plan to business with Duluth for a very long time.
Went to Burlington, MA brick and mortar store. On the vest, they had signs indicating "40% off outerwear" . When I got to the cash register it wasn't 40% off according to the cashier who said it wasn't outerwear and not meant to be worn outside. Go figure
AKHG is my go to; this vest will be enjoyed so much. The rich color is fresh & exact weight for me. Did exchange size Large for Medium as the cut is generous. Perfect fit in Medium for 5'11 and 185 lb.
