Asta Lightweight Down Gilet

Excellent addition to my hiking kit, great for laying when we are big changes in the temperature

Believe it or not we’ve had some chilly mornings up here in the northeast and this body warming is perfect for chilly mornings walking super light and perfect fit thank you jottnar

Really impressed with this vest. Bought it to layer under a shell and it works perfectly with no bulk but still keeps my core warm. Also great on its own over a T-shirt for typical UK spring and summer days. Fit is spot on, I went for a small and it’s fitted without being restrictive. Comfortable, lightweight, and I end up reaching for it all the time.

To be honest I'd never heard of or seen Jottnar clothing until I saw one of the Sky television reporters wearing a Jottnar jacket.
However I decided to purchase a Gilet from last year's collection, so glad I did, without doubt the warmest Gilet I have ever owned.
Will definitely purchase other goods in the future.

Best Gilet I’ve owned quality is top notch

An excellent piece of kit - smart, comfortable and very warm - all you would expect from Jottnar. I have made several purchases from Jottnar and the quality of each has been outstanding. Similarly the service received has been exceptional following a couple of mistakes made by myself when ordering. The queries raised were resolved swiftly, without any fuss and the necessary changes accommodated immediately.
It really felt as if my custom was appreciated and the service received has been second to none. Very grateful for both the quality product and equally good quality of service. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

Very happy excellent quality and very warm.

Excellent quality gilet, with great simple and understated design. Fits me well. Keeps me cosy when full jacket would be too much! Smart enough to wear casually too.

Like everything from Jottnar this is a product that’s highly calibrated to the intended use / purpose. No room for any kind of complaint! Amazing design, functionality and assembly.

Fits well (my short arms do not cause a problem since it is armless!). Just the right amount of warmth in the between seasons periods of the year. Works well with the other Jottnar items I have.
Pockets are good.

Great fit and quality all round. Highly recommended.

Excellent quality. Only had it a couple off weeks, but I can see it being used daily 'on and off the hills' Smart as well as practical

Fit and finish is superb. Expensive but very good quality.

Great quality, very pleased

Everything I have bought from these guys has been great. The more st comfortable gilet I’ve worn.

Fits well, looks good and kept me warm (as standalone) when recently hiking in Mid Wales.

Great quality item, nice length as I find most most gilets a bit short. Good price in the sale.

Fantastic technical gilet well made looks great and toasty warm as part of layering system . I have bought 4 items from Jottnar and everything about them is top top quality. Expensive but worth it

A smashing gilet…lightweight, warm and well put together.

All round great Gilet. Fits perfect, warm and light weight.

I am 42 inch chest/6ft and the medium fits snug but not too tight.
I was attracted to the down treatment when I previously bought a Thorne jacket and very pleased with both. I think Jottnar is a better brand than many premium high street brands.

Great fit. Toasty. Lightweight.

High neck for warmth retention, very light weight yet warm enough. Packs down really well.

Practical use for both outdoor pursuits and around the city. My new favourite bit of kit.

Excellent price for the quality of product.

Snug, well cut, excellent fill, great length! A winner.

This is a well-designed, light weight vest for all sorts of environments. The fit is on the mark - I’ve had mediums in a couple of other jackets but wanted a close fitting comfy but not tight fit and the small is great. Length works well and it packs down nice and small in my pack. I chose the grey, it goes with everything which is good for using at home as well as on the hill.

Excellent quality. Hardly been off since it arrived it’s so comfortable. 6ft 12st M.

My Asta gilet just arrived along with my Hemming fleece midlayer. Both outstanding pieces of kit that go fantastically well together. I can't get over the quality of Jottnar clothing. Over the years I have collected literally every top outdoor brand. However Jottnar is my favourite of them all. Brilliant. Thank you.

Not had it on yet, but looks good & nice like

Looked at lots of options but went for the Jottnar Asta in eclipse. It’s a gorgeous colour. The gilet fits perfectly, lightly elasticated under the arm to give that comfortable, snug fit and slightly longer at the back to give extra warmth….. it’s very warm. It goes without saying with Jottnar products; it is beautifully made and finished. It’s my third Jottnar jacket. They never fail to deliver on performance and aethestic. Great brand, great products.

Though it’s far too warm to wear at the moment in the heatwave the quality of this gilet stands out, lightweight, beautifully made and with great features. I particularly like the elasticated armpits which will keep the draughts at bay. All in all a very well made and snug gilet which I’m sure will keep me warm this coming winter.

I didn’t follow the old adage off ‘when climbing, dress for the second mile, not the first’ because when I unpacked my Gilet i was disappointed with its thickness! Needless to say I was a mile in and stripping base layers off! Deceivingly warm! Love it

I have had my Astra Gillet for a couple of months now and I have mixed feelings. On the one hand it’s warm and comfortable but on the other hand I frequently have feathers poke through, sometimes I can pull them back from the other side, but often it’s by seams where this isn’t possible. This has unfortunately put me off buying the Thorne jacket as I often feel I have to be extra careful when wearing the gillet which I don’t have with other down clothing I own. However I mainly use this for my office and it looks smart and I’ve been asked about the brand a few times. This is hard to write as the customer service from Jottnar is great and I have other products which I love. I’m still planning on buying some mid layers as this has definitely not put me off the brand but has made me a bit cautious of what items I do purchase.
