Hard to say how thick....compressed I guess it'a inch or so? It's an extremely warm garment.

Roger, is this something you would put under the pullover instead of the wind blocker vest? I've been thinking about pickingup another pullover and a gfa quiver.

Tzolk - Yes...Teresa designed them to be used together or alone. When it gets in the low thirties, I wear the Sherpa. Any colder than that, or if it is windy, I add the Windblocker. She made those 2 pieces as vests, so as not to bulk up your arms.

It's a simple but well thought out system.

She does an excellent job! The good lord has really blessed our Trad community with her presence.

Roger, is your Sherpa vest one size smaller than your wind blocker and/or wool  pullover?

Rodger,

is the sherpa a bulky layer? also, are they still making the windproof vest, and if so is it a loud material?

Thanks
