Women’s Fast Trek™ Vest 4.2 5 24 24
Strange fit Looks good in the picture but it's definitely not for a short person. Zipped up, it covers my chin, unzipped the collar is stiff and doesn't lay comfortably. Wanted to like this because it was such a bargain but perhaps the fit is why it was marked down. February 10, 2013
Pocket lining color clash I'm 5'8 and weigh 145lbs, with a smaller chest. I ordered size small and the fit was snug but that's the look I wanted. The down side to an active-fitting vest is that when the pockets are unzipped, you reveal the interior pocket color, or lack thereof. The pocket lining was white and noticeably clashed with the color of the vest. Seems like a simple enough fix - match the pocket lining with the exterior...item was returned (sadly). I wanted to like this vest. December 19, 2012
A tight little vest Definitely didn't know that this product runs small - get a size bigger than you usually wear from Columbia. The vest itself is a good buy though. More of a sporty vest than lounging around - it can be a bit constricting. December 5, 2012
Slender Fit Soft, comfortable, slender fit with medium size square collar. December 4, 2012
What I expected A great, microfleece vest that looks nice and crisp enough that I can see wearing it over a collared shirt at work on a cooler day. After reading the reviews, I was a little concerned about size. I am on the cusp of the recommended measurements between the small and the medium, and so I opted for the medium and it fits well.I will note, however, that this is a bit longer than I expected; it falls rather low on the hips.

Woman's Fast Trek Vest Overall great fit, style and comfort! I would love to order another one! November 21, 2012
Disappointed I love Columbia products and have depended on them over the years for a great fit and quality. The arm holes in this vest are cut too high. They bunch up under my armpit, not a lot, just enough to be annoying so I am returning it. November 20, 2012
My 2nd Like It Two years ago, I bought a Columbia fleece vest very similar to this (same style, but the collar is fleece not the "satiny" trim). It is such a staple in my Fall wardrobe that I needed to rotate in another color. This year's model seems to fit a smidge more suggly in the waist than my other one, but not uncomfortably. I love the length of it- I am long-waisted.My mother loved my vest so much she wanted one for herself. She is tough to shop for. Thank you for providing me with a gift opportunity as well, Columbia!

Nice vest a little small I loved the feel of this vest but the size M was a bit too snug to wear over a shirt. I'm exchanging for a bigger size but hope it's not too long. November 14, 2012
Armholes too Tight I want to love this vest -- it's exactly what I've been seeking!Except, the armholes are too snug under the arm and not comfortable.I'm a slim woman, but just an inch more under-the-arm space would have made all the difference. October 23, 2012
slim profile and warm I am very pleased with this vest. At 5"7' and 125 lbs, I have a long torso and some Columbia products stop short at my waist or ride up. That won't be a problem with this vest! It hits me perfectly at the hip. The cut is modern, snug and slimming. One surprise--the fabric at the collar is not fleece, but rather a shinny polyester. It will still provide warmth, but does not stand up on its own unless fully zipped. I find the collar attractive, but perhaps not quite as pictured. October 10, 2012
Very Dinky! Ok, I'm under 5' tall and weigh just over 100 pounds. After reading the reviews I ordered the medium. It's really too snug around the waist and hip area. It's more comfortable to leave unzipped. I have an earlier version of a Columbia fleece vest that is a size small that fits much better. This is nuts. Do I need to order a size large or what? I promise you I'm not a large person. September 28, 2012
Great jacket, fits snuggly Love the fit of this jacket. I don't care for relaxed, loose vests. Ordered a medium according to the size chart but it was a bit snug through the middle. Will exchange for a large. Love the length. I know I'll especially like the high collar in the fall. Would love to see more color options. July 16, 2012
Too small I am normally a medium but it was too small. A friend of mine bought it from me and I have not re-ordered it yet. I will need to order a large. The quality was great though and I really liked the color. April 5, 2012
Nice Vest I really like the vest, but I should have listened more to the reviews. It fits very snug. It is perfectly fine to wear over a shirt or a thin sweater, but not over a sweatshirt or anything thick. If you're looking for something to wear over your shirt when it's just a little chilly, but not chilly enough for an actual sweatshirt/jacket, this vest is perfect for you. It is good quality and will last for a long time. I do plan on purchasing another vest though, for wearing over thicker garments. Overall, Columbia made a good vest. March 22, 2012
Comfortable Meets Stylish Love this vest! I have received so many compliments when I have worn my vest. Not only is the vest very stylish, but the fit is so flattering, while being extremely comfortable at the same time; a win-win experience all the way! The first time I wore my vest was for work at a Trade Show, and everyone I talked with commented what a good looking vest it was; I even saw a guy wearing the same vest, and we both looked at each other and agreed we both had good taste!!

Best Vest Ever! The Fast Trek Vest has been the best vest I have ever purchased. It has a great fit and is long enough to provide warmth and coverage during any activity. IT is quite versatile, keeping me warm on hikes and even substituting as a coat when going out at night.It has a nice high neck when zipped up and great slant pockets on both sides as well as an interior pocket.The fabric has some stretch to it and keeps it look after washing.I bought a 2nd one because I liked mine so much and I get lots of compliments on this vest. March 5, 2012
Really Like I really like this product but I did have to send it back and order a larger size. I thought that it would fit a little looser than it did so I would advise if you want it loose to order a size up than you would for a jacket. January 24, 2012
Great This is a great item, very well made. Will last a long time. January 14, 2012
Love this vest, great features! I love my Fast Trek Vest! Very comfortable, warm and fits great!The inside pockets are just what I need when traveling to conceal my money and personal items. I can leave my handbag home!The quaity is superior and I would recommend to everyone! January 11, 2012
Medium is long and snug on the hips This is a very nice vest, I plan on wearing while golfing. It is rather long on my 5ft 5in medium frame and fits rather snug over the hips. I'm going to keep it, but I wish it had 5 inches less length and 3 inches more width. December 27, 2011
rockitz The fabric is superb, soft but tough. Lots of style with the shoulder detail. Great fit: fitted without being too close. Very nice. December 11, 2011
Orange vest I am getting this for Christmas..but I also have a zip up fleece in this color and LOVE it..your products make me warm, happy and cozy! November 29, 2011
It's a hit! I bought this vest to keep me warm in a chilly house. It does the job well. It's thick enough to provide substantial warmth without feeling bulky, and long enough to eliminate gaps. The collar is versatile and I really like the color. November 23, 2011
