Practical and Comfortable
Amazon Essentials Men’s Lightweight Water-Resistant Packable Puffer Vest is a versatile addition to any man’s wardrobe, offering both comfort and convenience for outdoor activities or everyday wear.The vest is made from water-resistant material, which is a vital feature for those unexpected rainy days. It’s lightweight but provides the right amount of warmth, making it perfect for transitional weather or layering in colder conditions. The padding offers decent insulation without adding bulk, which is a considerable plus.The packable feature is a standout – it can be compressed and stored in a small bag or a backpack, making it perfect for travel or carrying around when you’re unsure about the weather.Design-wise, the puffer vest is quite pleasing. The quilted pattern is trendy, and the availability of multipacks allows for a variety of color options to suit different tastes and outfits. The vest features a full-zip front and a stand-up collar, adding to its overall chic and functional design.

Perfect for inside or outside warmth, lots of features
At 6’ and 215 pounds the XL fit great with a little room for movement. Since I’m Gen X I like my clothes to fit with a little give unlike the millennials wanting that tight skinny jeans look like they’re wearing clothes from seventh grade. LOL it’s all good and I love the vest, and millennials should buy one size down. If you like to wear over lots of layers like a flannel shirt, and t-shirt etc. get one size up. The vest has a heavy-duty zipper with two internal open pockets and two external zipper pockets. Includes sewn-in loop for hanging and a stuff sack.

Size down for the Vest
I recently purchased (2) of the light blue puffer vests from Amazon in sizes Large and X-Large for an average of $16.50 each at the end of the winter season.I usually wear the traditional fit of Land’s End in Large but size up to X-Large for the Amazon Essentials line of jackets (with sleeves). The XL is more comfortable and allows for layering in colder weather.However, for the (sleeveless) vests, I prefer the Large for a snug but comfortable fit. As others have noted, Amazon basics do not have adjustable drawstrings to tighten the fit. As such, the XL vest is too loose to wear as an inner layer.The vests do keep you warm and are of good quality. Lightweight synthetic fiber with a water resistant nylon shell. If you can buy the vests on sale, it is a great value.

NICE & Extremely Lightweight
Comes with a completely unnecessary ‘storage/travel’ bag that I MIGHT use at some point… but overall I love this item. Fits great and is extremely lightweight. There’s an inside pocket on both sides that could probably hold an iPad (I haven’t actually tried to see – but the pockets are very large as inside pockets go).

Ok, but lightweight
This vest is very lightweight. Insulation is kind of thin. Doesn’t really keep me warm below 50 degrees F. But it’s good for blocking the wind and good as an added layer for motorcycle riding. Size is ok, but maybe a little small for size XL. I probably wouldn’t order this vest again. I also ordered the Alpine Swiss Mens Clark vest at the same time. The Alpine Swiss vest is much warmer and size is more like XL for about the same price.

Puff Puff
I had lost a Patagonia puffer vest on a long trip and while looking for a replacement came across these Amazon vests. Although a little nervouse about the price I took the plunge…. and I am glad I did. This is a super high quality puffer vest to keep you warm and stylish. I love the double inside pockets which is not on most. Get one and see.

Exactly what I needed
I wanted a lightweight, packable vest that I could keep in my golf bag for those days when rounds become unexpectedly chilly, but not chilly enough for a jacket. This fit the bill perfectly. I purchased for around $20, came quickly, packs pretty small, and keeps me warm on chilly days.

Great vest to keep in your backpack while hiking
Highly recommend this vest. It’s very compact and stuffs into a small bag that does not take up much room in your backpack. When it’s unfolded it is fluffy and provides good insulation under a rain jacket. I bought it before an Alaskan vacation and it came in handy.

Better than other similiar options …would be better if…
I bought several different brands of this “puffer vest”. I picked this one up for half price as it was on sale…it was better quality than the more expensive optinos. I would have given it 5 stars overall if one feature that could be added is a drawstring at the bottom…other than that a solid “budget buy”. I use it for physical activity biking mainly and it does a good job keep the wind off me and keeping me warm…I have spoken

Better than I thought
The ad said the model was 6’1″ so at 5’10″ I said close enough. The fit is good for me weighing 168 with a 34″ waist. This was purchased to replace my old down vest so I was quite surprised by how warm this was. I believe this was a good buy.

A new favorite in my wardrobe
The vest fits true to size and is very comfortable to wear. The puffer design not only looks stylish, but also provides a good amount of warmth. It’s perfect for layering over a long-sleeve shirt or sweater on chilly days, or even for wearing under a coat for extra insulation.What I appreciate most about this vest is its versatility. It’s great for outdoor activities like hiking or camping, but also looks stylish enough to wear out and about in the city. And with the option to purchase multipacks, I was able to get multiple colors to match different outfits.

inexpensive vest.
Got this for an upcoming fishing trip. Weather forecast changed last min and is expected to be colder and rainier than originally expected and don’t really have anything else that isn’t much heavier. The forecast is supposed to be a high of about 50 degrees, which I think should be perfect for the vest. For reference, this is the XL. I’m 5’10 and about 230 lbs. It is a little bigger than what I would typically consider an XL but a hoodie fits nicely underneath. I’ll come back with an update to see how it holds up for the trip.

Weird sizing and shape
The vest is comfortable and the color is nice. But the shape of it is rotund in the middle. If you’re slim to average size in th belly, the vest puffs out and is not flattering. Also when I returned it via UPS they made me purchase a return bag. I thought returns were supposed to be free.

Runs A Little Big
I am 6′ 250lbs, so a bigger guy. I usually run a 52 chest or XXL in most clothes, but the XXL in this vest was definitely a bit large on me. I wore it once or twice and just felt like I was swimming in it.I decided to return the larger one and exchange it for an XL and it fit perfectly.This vest is about half the price of the alternatives and it feels exactly the same. It also seems to have waterproof pockets or at least moisture proof. It just feels like good quality all around.If you get it, maybe size down, but definitely worth it!

Decent, cheap vest
From a quality standpoint, everything seems fine (at day two). It is light weight and makes a decent option for wearing a sweater around the house. Clearly not polar expedition wear.I would caution you on picking the right size. Sizing is tricky since there are different preferences on tight/loose and whether an item is intended to be an ‘outer garment’ or potentially part of an interior ‘layer’. I’m 5’8″ / 160 lbs. and the Medium is definitely on the ‘loose’ side. Not so large as to be unacceptable, but much bigger than the typical medium.

I LOVE this vest
This is one of my favorite clothing items I own for the fall and winter. I bought this about a year ago and I consistently get a lot of use out of it. The zippers all function well. This vest is very comfortable and versatile. I can wear it with many different outfits. Its not great insulation wise, but I bought it for fashion so I don’t mind much. I would 100% recommend this vest to anyone who is looking for one. 10/10!

Bought it for myself!
I bought these for my husband and son, but I liked them so much that I bought one for myself. Keeps me warm on soccer days. Light, yet warm, with its own little pouch to keep safe and small. I just throw it in the back of my car for those cold weekends. 🥶

Checks all my boxes
Great puffer. Bought this as someone who was in between a woman’s Small and Medium. I wanted something not too big not too tight, and the men’s small was great. I did get it on sale. For reference I’m 5’5 and 120 lbs. It’s a little snugger around my hips than a woman’s size would be, but that’s fine. Pockets inside and out. Comes with it’s own pouch. Keeps me decently warm, despite being lightweight. I like the green. The light blue wasn’t as light as in the photos.

Good value
Overall, I like the vest. Obviously, it doesn’t fit as well as my Carhartt vest in that it’s less fitted and is a little long in my opinion. However, I could just be between sizes.

Fits smaller
The vest is nicely made and looks good. Problem is when I buy clothing made in Viet Nam, it always fits tight around the waist. I returned the vest and reordered a larger size.EDIT: received the XXL and it fits great. Just a reminder, if the clothing item is manufactured in Viet Nam, order one size larger.

Good for chilly days
The vest is incredibly lightweight, which makes it easy to pack and carry around. The material is water-resistant, which is great for outdoor activities in light rain or mist. The puffer design also provides a decent amount of warmth without feeling bulky or heavy.However, there are also some negatives to this vest. The sizing is somewhat inconsistent, which can make it difficult to find the right fit. I found that the sizing chart was not always accurate, and I had to exchange my vest for a different size. Additionally, while the vest does provide some warmth, it’s not enough for very cold temperatures or harsh weather conditions.

I have looked locally for a black lightweight pack-able men’s vest for travel for a year but could not find one. This fit the bill. Light vests are especially helpful when traveling on a plane as they can be worn or stuffed in a pack. The fit was as expected.
