Reviews

After a truck fire and

"After a truck fire and not receiving my parcel, Australian post advised me to contact Kathmandu. People at Kathmandu are just terrific. Received my vest a few days later and yes fits beautifully. My husband recons an operation is needed because l don’t stop wearing it. So light and so warm. Thank you"

Sara K. (5/5)

Womens vest

"Beautiful colour, great product, terrible on line service. Ordered vest on line, no communication re pick up date. Called and stated vest not available as has been shipped to different store for sale. Offered refund, but explained I wanted vest for mother day gift. Eventually able to pick it up at local store- would never buy online again"

Amanda C. (5/5)

I'm living in this vest now . . .

"Originally, I ordered this vest and a fleece vest in size L, but the size L was too big to be warm. I wanted it to fit snug but not tight. I wear a size 12 in other Kathmandu clothing, so I thought a large would be the right size. My lucky friend now has two vests in size large."

Linda M. (5/5)

Sizing wrong

"I purchased same vest in berry colour and liked it so ordered the vest in Haze. So disappointed when it arrived the size and cut was more like 12 to 14. Looked all wrong. No quality checking otherwise this would have been picked. My size was small."
