Description of Columbia Alpino II Reversible Down Vest - Men's:
From cleaning up camp on cold mornings to drinking river-chilled beers after the sun sets, the Columbia Men's Alpino II Reversible Down Vest is up to the occasion. Insulated with 700-fill down, this Columbia vest insulates your core when a full down jacket would be overkill. Warm your digits in the two handwarmer pockets, and store your GPS, cell, or iPod in the chest pocket—the down will help keep the battery warm. If you're in the mood to switch up your look—or you spilled last night’s dinner on it—reverse the Alpino Down Vest, and rock a new color.

Bottom Line: Surround your core in downy warmth.

Columbia is for real!   07-24-09

For some reason, in the gear world, Columbia is considered somewhat of an ugly stepsister to the elite Arc'Teryx, Patagonia, Marmot, etc. I don't understand this. I have several Columbia products and all are first rate pieces of gear which cost much less than similar pieces from the elites. This vest is no exception. It is an essential backpacking piece. Its 700 fill is very warm, yet it weighs a mere 8 ounces, and packs to the size of a softball with the included stuff sack (could get smaller with a compression sack). It could be a life saver in an emergency (such as when I got caught in a thunderstorm in near freezing temps above treeline in Glacier NP and only had this and a merino mid-layer dry to stave off hypothermia) or just worn around the fire on a car camping trip. And if you care about that sort of thing, the reversible function is kind of nice. Bottom line: buy it put it in your pack and be thankful later.
