A reversible insulated vest that lets you choose between more wind protection or more breathability.
Berghaus says:
Lightweight reversible vest with synthetic Hydroloft Elite insulation and wind protection so you can move in comfort.
Packed with high performance Hydroloft Elite, this reversible vest alternative face fabrics, so you can adapt to different conditions. The synthetic insulation will keep you warm, even in damp conditions. The pack and harness compatible pockets make it ideal as part of a layering system.
Our Verdict
The Berghaus Theralite Versa Vest weighs 135g (Medium) and uses 40g/m² Hydroloft Elite insulation, but the bit I like most is the reversible construction. The two sides use different face fabrics, with one offering more wind protection and the other allowing more air through.
I can see the more protective side making sense in colder or breezier conditions, then flipping it when I am working harder and want to lose heat more easily.
I also like the simple setup, with two zipped hand pockets and a stretch-bound hem and arm openings. At 135g, it gives you useful core insulation without adding much bulk.
