Perfect for runners

a year ago
I really like this running vest. Its perfect. Love the weight and light insulation on the chest. The back panel is perfect for dumping excess heat.The pockets in the back are a little loose for my taste.

Close to being great.

a year ago
Really enjoy the Coreloft 40 insulation in the front and vented back, as that’s the first place I start to sweat. This vest adds a ton of versatility to my winter running kit, and I find myself always bringing it with me thanks to its light/compact size. It does not need hand warming pockets as it’s a running vest. Arcteryx sells multiple other vest with hand pockets if that’s what you need. I would trade the rear stuff pocket for a chest pocket, as I find the rear pocket to be kind of useless. Like others have said, items tend to bounce out, so it’s only really good a stuff pocket and no valuables. If the next iteration adds these updates it’ll be an easy 5/5

Not for cycling

a year ago
Purchased for road cycling. Vest fits nice and looks good but does not provide enough wind protection. My old uninsulated, mesh back Castelli wind vest works better. I assume the lack of wind protection is probably what makes the Norvan more breathable? I wanted something that would provide a bit of warmth with minimal insulation and was easy to carry but the intrusion of wind through the fabric offsets the benefits I was hoping to get. I guess it is only meant for running? But even if that is so, at such a high price the product should be fully feature packed.

No, I do not recommend this product.

I would expect that a simple vest, made with minimal amount of material and priced over $200, would be wind proof. Runners must not encounter wind....?

Terrible

a year ago
Terrible item. Stains if you look at it. Wore it once and it somehow marked. Wipe if with water and the stain got bigger. Stuck it in the wash and the stain did come out, but gained about 3 others. Top also looks about 5 years old now . Joke ! Guess it was only cheap... £150 cheap !!! You don't get what you pay for in this case. Doesn't even deserve 1 star. I'd avoid this one !!

Wind and cold protection with great breathing

a year ago
Great design and function. I have used the Atom Sl vest for running until now. The Norvan vest is thinner, but much better for running because of the breathing panel at the back, and low package volume. It also have reflective details. This will be a favorite to protect for wind and cold. If you need pockets I recommend adding a belt like the Norvan belt.
