“After reading all the reviews that the vest runs large, I bought my wife the XS - it didn't fit. It seems, at least at the smaller sizes, it runs true to size. From a heating performance standpoint, while the neck and pockets get warm - there are no heating elements on the chest area - she felt like that was a miss for her.”
“I love this vest. I am an engineer in Wyoming and spend a bit of time outdoors at project site walks and overseeing site work. The vest is fitted so you want to make sure to get your true size. It is perfect under my coats and keeps me extra warm. The red zipper is really a pretty color and gives the vest a bit of pizzaz. The heating works great and has elements along the back, front, sizes, and even the neck area. I love the warmth and the style, but also Ororo as a company is very accommodating and helpful. Definitely recommend if you run cold!”
“I originally got this because I wanted something to keep me warm, and also allow free range of arm motion, in the office. I continued to use it during our spring softball season which is outside… at night…beginning in February...”
“It runs a bit large - I’m 5’3”, 144 lbs, chest 39”, waist 32”, athletic muscular build with a little fluff, and the medium was too loose on me for my liking. I ordered a new one in size small.”
“I received a vest from my staff for a holiday present and was stoked! But - it was almost too tight. When the open box items were offered I ordered the next size up and it is perfect. I do know I can do returns and exchanges, which is why the "almost" stalled my tending to this. My sister fits the tight one, so problem solved and we are very happy with the vests.”
“The battery compartment is located on the side which makes it for a bit more snug...but I can zip it just fine. I’d definitely size up if you are close to the next size.”
