This is a great gift piece that I think most women would love to receive, especially your young, hip, 20 somethings. Patagonia is becoming really popular, they are known for high quality and low carbon footprint. This vest though is just plain cute, nothing particularly special or technical about it. It's just a cozy, super soft shaggy vest. I really dig the vest look for fall and winter days. This vest fits pretty true to size, I wear a 6 in most brands, which tends to be a small, but I more comfortably fit into a medium in Patagonia for tops, so maybe size up if you're not sure.

Love this vest, I own it in 3 colors. Not only does the fur make it cute and comfortable, but the inner lining also helps keep the cold out! I wear it almost every other day!
