Women's Simple Vest in Merino Wool and Silk

"I wear this vest throughout the year. In the winter I wear this vest with other wool layers on top and the wool/silk leggings underneath my trousers. I first got a vest because I started a job which involved being outside a lot. Now I don't know how I managed before."

"Hi! I have used the BLACK merino vest extensively in the last year, beyond my 6-month round the world travels, and was very happy with it. It doesn't stink from sweat easily and when it does and you need to wash it, it dries quickly. The black version looks almost good enough to wear on its own but I used it mostly as a base layer or a pyjama top. Either way, I find it does indeed keep you cool in summer and really nicely warm in winter. The only downside is that washing will eventually make it lose its tigh-fitting form and might even make small holes in it - but this depend how gently you wash it."

"I really like this item and found it useful all year round, including summer (UK summers can be chilly though, so maybe it wouldn't do for summers in warmer climates). The only quibble I have is that it did shrink a little bit, despite my washing it as per instructions. I got the green version and I really like the colour. Good for cool-toned skin."

This was washed... As above, it shrank a little bit. Still wearable though.

"this vest is fantastic, so warm and comfy and really soft too - I usually find wool very itchy but not this vest. I bought one for me and one for my mom and we both loved them. I might even get a second one!"

"This is a really good buy. It is true to size and when washed at a wool wash programme it won't shrink or lose its shape. Because it is made of wool it will keep you warm without building up moisture. It is soft and does not itch. A good idea is to buy 2 at a time, so you don't have to pay postage and you have one to wear when the other is in the wash. Mind you, as they are made of wool, they do not need washing as often as cotton or other materials. I love mine so much that I have recently bought 2 more."
