Reviews Summary
Customers say this winter coat keeps their dogs warm and dry while allowing full mobility. Many reviews mention the secure fit with adjustable straps and leg loops that keep the coat in place during active play. The lightweight design works well over harnesses, with an easy-to-use leash portal. While some note the leg straps can be tight or wear out over time, most praise the coat's durability and coverage. Users appreciate the simple on-off process and how it stays in position during runs and outdoor adventures. Several mention it performs well in snow, rain, and cold temperatures.

    Fits like a glove!

    Purchased the Vert vest this past winter for my German Shepherd and I have only good things to say about it! It feels very lightweight, yet keeps body heat inside very well. I was worried about the quality not being able to withstand branches and such getting snagged on it since it is quite thin, but no issues so far.

    My boy is approximately 100lbs (give or take) and the XL fits perfect. He wears the L/XL in Ruffwear harnesses as well, so if you’re on the fence about sizing I’d say you’re safe to go with whatever harness size they wear!

    Alaskan Breakup Shell

    Great item for playing outside in 10-40 degrees weather. Both of my Rhodesian Ridgebacks have one! Awesome for layering if the wind picks up mid canicross!

    Great Winter Jacket

    Originally purchased this jacket but it was too big for our dog. Requested an exchange. The exchange went flawlessly. The jacket is well made and warm. Our large breed dog loves it. This would be our second purchase from Ruffwear, having purchased a light rain jacket earlier. Gear from Ruffwear definitely gets two paws up.

    Insulated raincoat/ sleeping bag?

    I’m thrilled with this. Haven’t taken it in the rain yet but Marcus loves the fit and this will double as his sleeping bag for when he needs his space from me on the trail. (Sometimes he gets all cuddled out and likes to chill in his own space.)

    Five enthusiastic paws up for the Ruffwear Insulated Vest

    After relocating to a state with an actual winter, we needed an coat upgrade and this vest is excellent. It's unmistakably Ruffwear with durable fabric and hardware that feels built for neighborhood strolls and adventures. It goes on easily and stays put, even after enthusiastic sniffing and squirrel surveillance. Definitely worth the price!
