Patagucci alternative for hot weather

Are there any lighter-weight options to Patagonia's fleece vest for NYC summers with cold ac offices? Yes, I could take off the vest, but I prefer the look of having one on than just a plain dress shirt. I'm looking into the Arc'teryx SL vest. I would love other options as well.
