New Vest on the market
« on: January 20, 2021, 09:37:08 AM »
Over the past 2.5 years I have been designing a new vest. It has taken a lot of time, hard work, and energy but it is finally here. There are lots of vests on the market but I feel like we have added a solid option that is durable, comfortable, and well thought out. Please check it out and let me know what you think!

Pro's:  Looks like a good, functional, light-weight vest.  For a run 'n gun hunter, it looks much more appealing than some of the "it will carry the kitchen sink" vests available nowadays.   :icon_thumright:

Con's (potential):  One concern I personally would have is the zipper system shown,...  specifically, the zipper running so far down the side of the primary pockets.  I am prone enough to losing stuff as it is using compartments that only zip across the top.  I would be constantly worried about inadvertently leaving the zippers open.  On the other hand, I do like having all the compartments with zippers rather than buttons, latches, or velcro closures.    :)

Looks like there’s spots for four pots and four strikers on that one side. I like that a lot! For a long time I’ve wanted a vest that was built just for pot people, like eight pots and 20 strikers I wish this vest had the same pocket layout on the other side.

Glad the pictures in the pockets were added. Anytime I look at a vest and cannot tell the configuration and/or organization of the vest I am quickly turned off.

Nice looking vest.  It appears to be well thought out and the quality looks good in the pics.  Good luck in your business venture!

Looks like a nice thought out vest but for that kind of money you would think it would have a lifetime warranty

  X2 ... I'm also concerned about the small web straps holding the vest together ...

Very nice looking vest, I do agree that zippers on both sides of a pocket are what I prefer instead of a full zip to open.

It would be nice to have an option of the vest minus the cushion. I have a hard time giving up my Hunt Comfort Fatboy and normally carry it in the bird pouch
