Perfection Evolved. The vest version of our premium ultralight features the same new high-mobility fit and feature set as the jacket and hoodie, minus the sleeves and the drawcord hem. Version 2.0 is more comfortable and mobile, with slightly longer length for added coverage and warmth, and softer fabric to further enhance the comfort.
As an ultralight insulating layer, the MicroTherm is thinner than traditional down vests. But that combination of minimal bulk and effective warmth is what makes it special, and is the result of its patented construction and the exceptionally high-loft Premium Goose Down that it holds close to the body for maximum thermal efficiency.
NOTE: As a reference for comparison, we have included the customer reviews of the MicroTherm 1.0 below. Any reviews dated prior to July 30, 2018 are for the MicroTherm 1.0. All reviews dated after July 30, 2018 are for the new MicroTherm 2.0.
Models shown are 6'0" to 6'2" tall, wearing size M/32x32.

Purchased as Xmas gift for bro-in-law. His first vest and he loves it, wears it daily! He is tall and slender but needs XL for length. Actually I bought L and he exchanged it. Lightweight but warm and great for layering.

Wyoming is constantly changing weather conditions. Whether hiking, fishing, hunting or going to the grocery store, layers are ideal for achieving the right balance. A huge plus is the waterproofing.

Great fit, great quality. I like that the zippers have been upgraded to be a bit sturdier. I appreciate that EB carries some stylish outerwear options that don't make me look or feel like an "old man."
- Yes, I recommend this productMike | Verified userGenderHeight 5'6"TypeActivityPros Comfort, Fit, QualityConsMy new favoriteDec 31, 2024
I love the jacket version of this vest and was happy to see the vest in my size. I previously purchased a first ascent vest that is warm, but it doesn't have the 800 fill that this vest has.
- Yes, I recommend this productCobraMath88 | Verified userGenderHeight 5'11"TypeActivityPros Comfort, Fit, Quality, VersatileConsJust what I needed.Dec 31, 2024
This vest is very warm without being too bulky. I wear in under my golf top in cold weather and I can still swing the club with no problem while staying warm. I looks great and has some very handy pockets. Highly recommend.
- Yes, I recommend this productXandalf | Verified userGenderHeight 5'10"TypeActivityPros Comfort, Easy Care, Fit, Quality, VersatileConsAwesome - good looking - vest.Dec 30, 2024
This looks really good with casual or dressy styling. I used for all occasions and keeps me warm even on mildly cold days without a full jacket on.. Awesome style that goes well with almost anything!

Perfect vest! Not too warm. Light as a feather! Easy zip pockets. And it folds up to fit in its own inside pocket. Best vest of its kind I have ever owned. Just back from a trip and I wore it almost every day.
- Yes, I recommend this productMike Likes to Hike | Verified userGenderHeight 6'2"TypeActivityPros Comfort, Fit, VersatileConsGreat Vest - Fits well very comfortableOct 23, 2024
Very comfortable - and very good for Fall days with a flannel shirt or a waffle henley.
- Yes, I recommend this productPilot Boy | Verified userGenderHeight 6'4"TypeActivityPros Comfort, Fit, QualityConsFavorite line of Vests the MicroTherm 2.0 is perfectOct 13, 2024
I like the regular length even though I am 6'4" due to it being perfect length for sitting in aircraft seats. The tall is a better fit for hiking, etc. but for sitting the shorter length does not get bunched up or sat on.
- Yes, I recommend this productGristle | Verified userGenderHeight 6'2"TypeActivityPros ComfortConslight yet warm and comfortableSep 27, 2024
its a great way to layer without felling too hot. Excellent fit
- Yes, I recommend this productDH | Verified userGenderHeight 6'6"TypeActivityPros Comfort, Easy Care, Fit, VersatileConsReplacement Vest due to faulty ZipperAug 5, 2024
I have this vest and the identical jacket - love them both - for added warmth will throw the vest on under the jacket when needed (purposely ordered the jacket a size bigger so I could do this). My only issue with both the Jacket and the Vest is the cheap zipper - it broke on both the jacket and the zipper after 2 years - Eddie Bauer would not replace due to being over a year after purchase. I attempted to have the zipper replaced but could not find anyone to do it. So I waited for a sale and replaced both - hoping these zippers last longer.

Very comfortable and warm. Folds up to nothing. Convenient for travel.
- Yes, I recommend this productFortunaKid | Verified userGenderHeightTypeActivityPros Comfort, Fit, Quality, VersatileConsWell madeMay 18, 2024
I live in a area of moderate temperatures. Vests are ideal to wear over a shirt or under a something warmer on cool days or nights. I am 6'2", 205lbs and this is a perfect fit. 2nd Eddie Bauer vest I have purchased, 1st is going strong after 5 years of wear.

Finally, a warm slim cut puffy vest. I can comfortably wear it under a shell while cross country skiing.
