Customer Reviews Columbia Silver Ridge II Vest

Nice looking and practical. I'm 6'1" and weigh 153 pounds. Normally I wear medium. I bought a medium and found the fit just a bit too sloppy over a t-shirt or flannel shirt for my taste. Returned it for a small, which fits really great. It's a keeper. Thanks Zappos!

A great Multi purpose jacket that surely will be used a lot during early fall

Purchased as a replacement for the same item I had had for years. Unfortunately, I left it behind Practical on a recent trip. It's light as a feather and has lots of pockets. Perfect for travel or just walking around. Highly recommended.

Cool and very light. Tons of pockets. The collar won't stay down.

"I ordered the Silver Ridge II vest in Fossil based on website pic and description. Wrong! The vest is close to blond, waaay lighter than color example. Re-ordered in Sage and I love it. Columbia is using the Sage pics for both Fossil and Sage colors. The vest is lightweight, comfortable in summer, and the pockets are great, exactly the vest I needed. Agree with others that the "hand pockets" are not for adult male hands, but that's OK, they hold lots of stuff. Highly recommend.

Lots of pockets, lightweight, comfortable. Perfect for hiking, fishing, or whatever.

A good vest for my wedding photography on the go. Well-made, quality fabric. Great fit.

My husband loves this...says he sees why I like to carry a purse. Also great for gardening for gloves, phone etc. Its lightweight and also great for carrying wallet, mask, keys etc when shopping.

I was traveling in late May and found that my 32 Degrees puffy vest was great for primarily providing secure pockets for the various items I wanted to keep on my person and kept me warm when entering restaurants or stores that were too cool. The issue was that the vest was just too warm, but I knew I wouldn't travel again without a proper travel vest. I ordered the Silver Ridge II because it seemed like the perfect travel vest for every season but possibly winter and so far in 88 degree F heat back in the US it has stood up, with a small cooling stop in a coffee shop required after a 45 minute bike ride. It also has far more zipped, secure pockets for keys, wallet, passport, phone, airpods, etc.

Great vest plenty of pockets but not bulky. Great value. Just took extended trip and realized I need this. Can't wait for next excursion.

Size, weight and style works great for travel. A night on the town, hiking, you name it- love all the convenient pockets. - like a man's purse with all the storage available. Love love love it!

I liked the look of this vest and the functionality is even better.

I received one of these vests for Christmas and liked it so much that I ordered another one in a different color. Really a great vest. Lightweight and it fits really well.

Love it, only thing is it sets off all the metal detectors with all the zippers.

REALLY LIKE THE NEW VEST. I'M 6 FT, 155 LBS -- SMALL FITS PERFECTLY.

My first vest! Love wearing this vest casually or on date night.

Practical and comfortable. The lightweight material feels great.

I have the Kaki and tan vests in this series also and wear them quite often in the summer as they are not hot like a jacket or Blazer. Exactly what I I wanted.

Great Vest for the Money. Always appreciate Columbia Prices.

This is one of those perfect garments for men. Lightweight, nylon durability, not bulky.. Lots of pockets for glasses, phones, wallets, etc. Can be worn in any weather! Washable and still looks good. PERFECT! I have three, one black and two sage(?) green/grey. Priced right! Buy two, in case Columbia discontinues it for whatever bad reason. I can wear a large, but in this garment, I went to extra large. My chest is 42-44.

Fantastic vest. Lots of pockets. Easy to wear in hot climates.

I've written a review under the one of the other color options. You will not be disappointed by this item. I love the style, and the function.

I'm 57 years old, and I have always enjoyed wearing 'Vests'. These are more of a premium option, but i can tell you, they are worth it. I have three different colors. These are lightweight, feel good, fit nice, love the deign, love the zippered pockets. I can't think of anything, I don't love about this model of Vest. I am not a big outdoors person, well, not as much as I used to. For me, these vests are a combination of style, and function. I usually am just wearing a black t-shirt underneith. I think as I get older, I am simplifying. I will probably be buyiing more of these. It will be my uniform of choice if I'm not wearing a Hawaiian Shirt (which, oddly, looks good with these vests too.)

Great vest for warmer weather! Pockets are just right without looking too "tactical". Just what I've been looking for! Love the light weight feel, and air circulation vents throughout.

I've been looking for a new vest for a while. I wanted one with plenty of pockets w/zippers, reasonably lightweight, and comfortable to wear. This looks like the one!
