Black Diamond Solution 2.0 Vest - Men's Charcoal, L

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"Primaloft Gold Eco at 60gsm is a meaningful step up in warmth from the 1. 0 Hoodie's 40gsm fill, which makes the vest a strong pairing when you want core insulation without sleeve bulk on active days. The PFAS-free DWR on both shell and lining is a detail worth noting - it handles light weather without the chemical load of older treatments. Packs into the left hand pocket, fleece-lined hand pockets, cordlock hem for fit adjustment. This vest runs slightly snug, so size up if you are between sizes or planning to layer underneath."Core warmth is what keeps you moving when the temperature drops and the effort level does not. The Black Diamond Solution 2. 0 Vest delivers that in a 250-gram package built around 60gsm Primaloft Gold Eco insulation, a fill weight that shuts down cold at the torso without the weight or bulk of a full jacket. The sleeveless cut keeps arms free for pole work, climbing movement, and layering flexibility, while a cordlock adjustable hem seals the bottom against drafts when conditions tighten up. The 20D nylon shell and polyester lining both carry a PFAS-free DWR finish that handles light moisture without relying on the chemistry that older treatments required. Recycled content runs through the insulation and lining, and the whole vest compresses into the left hand pocket when the skin track warms up. Two zippered hand pockets with fleece lining and a zippered chest pocket handle storage without adding bulk. Pair it with the Solution 1. 0 Hoodie on the coldest days or wear it solo as the conditions allow. Size up if you are between sizes or planning to layer a midlayer underneath.
