Light, durable, and engineered for movement, the Mountain Equipment Women’s Core Vest is perfect when core warmth is essential but bulk and padding are not. Designed to serve as a high-performance mid‑layer for active mountain days, it delivers functionality for hiking, alpine travel, or light outdoor use.

Why It Works Outdoors:

• Minimal bulk & maximum breathability: Ideal for cold valley mornings or high-output uphill sections.

• Core-focused warmth: Keeps your torso insulated without restricting freedom of movement.

• Technical layering piece: Wear over a base layer or under a hardshell on changeable terrain.

Typical Design Specs:

• Lightweight, breathable fabrics (real model may feature softshell or grid‑fleece).

• Two secure zip hand pockets and a zipped chest pocket sized for on-the-go essentials.

• Low-bulk YKK zips, semi-elastic hem and armlets for comfort under a pack or harness.

• Versatile use across hiking, mountaineering and fast‑mountain travel.
