    An upgrade for long-time user.

    This one is more or less an improvement over the original ScotteVest I've been wearing for the last decade. Has the same pockets I love with some welcome upgraded features. I make my living taking pictures and writing how-to guides for photographers and end up doing a lot of traveling, including overseas. That's what I purchased my original jacket for, but it soon became my regular jacket for everyday use in Spring, Fall, and less than frigid Winter days. I bought this as a replacement for my original jacket, which is still wearable but shows enough wear and tear that I've relegated it to casual use. Sort of premium priced, but for what you get and the jacket's useful life, worth every penny.

    Essential Jacket 2.0 for the win.

    I ordered my Essential Jacket 2.0 in XL thinking it would be a 'little bit' loose after a 'slight' 10lb, (7yr) retirement weight gain to 195lbs. Boy was I wrong! The return/exchange paperwork included was easy to do and I received my Large replacement in only 10 days from the moment I put the package in the USPS mail. Great turnaround and the new large jacket fits perfectly and looks awesome. Thanks SCOTTeVEST! RAM ~🧙‍♂️
