This is essential during the in\u2011between season, when sunny spells can give way to rain and a biting wind. That\u2019s why a fleece vest like this Up2fashion one for 7.99 euros is perfect.

The only thing it lacks are branding marks, which in our view is actually perfect.<\/p>\n<p><!-- BREAK 2 --><\/p>\n<p>It also has chin protection for those days when the wind bites, and it includes side pockets to keep your phone or keys safely tucked away.
