Fit FAQs

What if I am between sizes?

If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing up or down based on what fit type you would prefer, and based on how you plan to wear the piece. Our knitted merino is stretchy and you could realistically go with either size. If you would prefer an Athletic fit, size down. If you prefer a Regular or Relaxed fit, size up.

Do I need to size up/down to layer?

Generally, no, you do not need to purchase a different size than normal. Our base layers are designed to fit right into your current layering system. They are also designed to work with other products in our line, too. You may wish to adjust your sizing if you plan to wear one of our garments in a way that it is not intended, if that's the case please feel free to contact our customer service team for help.

Does your clothing run true to size?

Yes, our clothing runs true to size and is sized similar to most other American brands. If a sizing discrepancy is discovered, you will see fit advice in that product's specific listing.

Not sure what size or fit type you need?

Product Story

Wilderness Expedition

Our new Wilderness Expedition collection is designed to be lighter weight than our classic Expedition line, twice as durable, and just as warm. These hearty mid-layers are built to last with a double layer Ponte knit that is sure to beef up your next adventure. From early morning bushwhacks to your favorite tree stand, to long wet days in the alpine zone, and every climb, creek crossing, and dog walk in between, we’ve got you covered.

Ponte de Roma is the name of a double knitting technique that consists of two layers of fabric knitted together. Ponte fabric is tightly knitted, making it very durable. It's stretchy, soft, doesn't wrinkle, and has a naturally flattering drape, which lets these mid-layers crossover perfectly from the outdoors to the office, and everything in between.

Why Merino Wool?

Moisture Wicking

Minus33 Merino Wool regulates the amount of moisture on your skin by absorbing any moisture or sweat on your body. Then, the absorbed moisture evaporates out of the fabric into the atmosphere.

Anti-Microbial

Merino Wool fibers naturally reject any bacteria in moisture or sweat as it is wicked away, so foot fungus and smelly odor will not be a problem while wearing our products.

Insulates When Wet

Wool will absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling wet or clammy. If you do get wet, wool will insulate you better than cotton or polyester materials.

Fire Resistant

Merino Wool insulates against high temperatures and does not readily catch fire. If it does, it self-extinguishes. When Merino burns, it doesn’t melt and stick to the skin like synthetic fabrics do.

UV Protection

Don’t worry about sunburn on a sunny day summiting a peak. Lightweight layers have a UPF rating of 25. Midweight and Expedition have a UPF rating of 50+.

Renewable

Merino Wool has a low environmental footprint and naturally returns to the elements. Shear a merino sheep in the morning, and in the afternoon they’re happily nibbling their way towards renewing next season’s clip.

Love it!

This wool vest is perfect for our Texas winters. I am 5'6" and weigh 132 lbs. The medium size fits me well. I love the high collar and the extra long length.

Robyn,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. This is a great vest and we are happy to hear that it is doing the trick for you when it gets colder!

Best vest ever

I wore this vest last season and bought a second one in a different color for the coming winter. Absolutely no pilling or wear after using it for hiking, wearing to the office, adding a good-looking layer to a dressy blouse. Front zip for easy temperature adjustment, zippered pockets for phone or keys.. Stretchy but substantial, not confining at all. Best merino product I've ever worn.

Cheryl,

We're thrilled to hear that this vest has been such a success - it's great to see a quality product that continues to be enjoyed year after year. Thanks for the great feedback!

Just Great Vest

Nice slender fit. Although formfitting, my phone doesn't protrude much from the pocket. Plus, what I consider a secret benefit; the inside of the pocket can secretly store, money, passport, credit cards, anything flat. Easy to wash and tumble dry without shrinking. Comes out like new. OK

Betsy,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a great review! This vest is really a great piece and we are glad that you are finding use for the inner bonus pockets.

On the fence…

I’m 5’6”, 128lbs, 36-29-39 and I got a medium. The style, quality, and weight makes me love this vest. However, while the torso is a perfect fit and very flattering, the arm holes stick out to the sides because I’m smaller on top. A more hourglass figure would fill this out just fine, but pear shapes may need a tailor. Hmmm.

Nice vest

I love this vest. It is comfortable and adds just the right layer when you need to take chill off without adding bulk.

Denise,

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a great review! It's great to hear that you are enjoying your Wilderness Expedition Women's Vest and that it is keeping you warm when needed!

Best,
