Title: Complete History of the Bob Dixon Turkey Vest
Post by: Remturkey on March 23, 2022, 11:29:32 PM
Not sure if this has ever been posted here but I ran across this today and wanted to share.  I've always heard of the famous Dixon vest but never knew the history on why and how it came to be. Now I do, very cool

That's cool... the gunslinger vest seems to be based off of this vest.

The Dixon vest seems to be in another class regarding quality. The material, stitching, nylon straps and over-all craftsmanship seem to be high end. The cushion has very dense foam, and is thick. The Limbhanger vest they produced is extremely close in construction. The Dixon definitely is one of the best vests produced, If they came out again with the same quality, I think it would be a hit.
