Re: Fit of Klymit vest?
Mine's a size XL, and it's 30" from the top of the collar, to the bottom of the vest. I have a fairly long torso, and it fits me fine. I'm about 5'11 and 220 pounds, and the ...

Kickstarter?!
I'm a Klymit fan, but I admit that I'm a bit surprised that they need Kickstarter funding to sew a pair of sleeves and a hood on to their existing vest line! I have several Klymit produc...
