Men's Outdoor Vest – Lightweight Gilet with Four Zip Pockets for Hiking

Four Pockets. Four Zips. Bend Over.

You know how this goes. You crouch down to tie a lace or pick something up, and your phone slides out of an open pocket onto gravel. Or you spend the whole walk with one hand pressed against your hip because you don't quite trust it.

Every pocket on this vest closes.

Here's How It Works

There are four of them, and all four have a zip. Two sit high on the chest, which is where you want the thing you reach for most — phone, glasses, a tag, a card — because at chest height gravity is on your side no matter what you're doing. Two more sit low and diagonal at the hands, deep enough for keys and a wallet and angled so you can get into them while you're moving.

The zip up the front runs two ways. Pull it down from the top to open up, or up from the hem to let air through the middle while the collar stays closed. That is the whole point of a stand collar: your neck stays out of the wind while the rest of you cools off.

Now the honest part. This is not a warm vest. There is no padding and no lining — it is a single light layer. What it does is add a windproof front and four secure pockets to whatever you already have on. Put it over a jumper on a cold morning and it works. Put it over a t-shirt in July and it will not keep you warm, because it was never built to.

That is also why it is worth having. A padded gilet is too warm by ten in the morning. This one you leave on.

Six colourways and sizes from S to 4XL, including plain navy and black that do not read as outdoor kit when you stop for a coffee.

The Gear It Replaces

• A jacket you don't need — too warm, and you end up carrying it by lunchtime
• A padded gilet — warm whether you wanted it or not
• Open hand pockets — fine standing still, useless bending down
• Carrying your phone in your hand — until you don't

What's In It

• Two zipped chest pockets — the things you reach for, at chest height
• Two zipped hand pockets — diagonal, deep, reachable on the move
• Two-way front zip — open from the top or vent from the hem
• Stand collar — neck out of the wind

• Six colourways — black, grey, green, rust, khaki and navy
