Vests are winter’s MVP — they add warmth where you need it without the bulk. Here’s a sporty vest you can wear as a layer or on its own.

This semi-fitted, lightweight vest is made with water-repellant nylon and filled with warm, recycled Thinsulate. The quilted pattern adds interest while the pockets and adjustable bungee waist add practicality.

Add this under your wool coat for chilly commutes or with a windbreaker for unseasonably warm winter weekends.

Athleta’s Whisper Featherless Vest is $159 full price (but “tapestry gold” is on sale). In addition to tapestry gold, it comes in “salvia pink” and black. It’s available in XXS–3X as well as tall and petite sizes.
