Great
"Always get one when my kids outgrow their vest. Good quality"
size small
"my son is 7 years old. i bought a size 10 but it was still too small. i can't change it because i'm from Mildura, at least it will have an associated cost."
No zips on pockets
"This vest has no zip pockets. Do not buy is you expect it to have zip pockets as per the advertised features. Worse when you contact customer service and they never respond."

Nice vest
"Light and warm, my son loves it"
Thanks
"Thanks"
Not very warm for the price mark
"No very warm for the price mark. I bought this for my son for school to keep his body warm in the playground while still allowing movement. There is very little filling and it really doesn't even break the wind well. I recently washed this once as per the gentle machine wash instructions with other woollen clothes. This lead to the filling being completely bunched and now its even worse. I wouldn't purchase this again."
Bought epiq down vest and jacket
"I loved them a lot. Last year, my 9-year-old boy wore the navy one during the cold winter (–20°C). It was very comfy and warm, and he loved wearing it. So I bought it again this year — definitely worth the price!"
My son love it
"Great color and very warm. We bought two already."
