This lightweight outdoor vest by sustainability-driven adventure brand Craghoppers boasts many benefits for its modest look. Dubbed the Women's Compresslite VI Vest, this high-performance offering features wind-resistant fabric that effectively blocks wind and a durable water-repellent finish that can keep light precipitation away from skin contact. Craghoppers relies on Ecoshield, a plant-based water repellent, to achieve this level of protection. The silhouette is also insulated with the latest technology, guaranteeing "outstanding warmth." The brand employs ThermoAir+ fibers for the insulation which effectively traps body heat.
The lightweight outdoor vest is also sustainably made with recycled materials, staying true to the brand's commitment to reducing waste on the planet. Craghoppers notes that approximately 18 plastic bottles were recycled to make this product.
