I had mine for 3 seasons and this year im noticing noise when im walking.
Its like that crinkly  water bottle kind of sound. I actually thought that I had a empty one in the back.
  I determined its the inner and outer shells in the back thats separating  at the padding areas.
  Anyone else experiencing this noise?

Just this week i have noticed a new, similar noise coming out of my TT2.....will investigate and report back.....

I really like the TT2, but there are two things that I don't (not deal breakers because I think both can be fixed somehow...

#1 the elastic straps that adjust the seat don't move in the buckle (at least I haven't been able to get them to)

#2 (and more applicable to this thread) is the swishing sound while I am walking.  This morning I think I located the source to be the very bottom of the vest, not exactly sure what the remedy for that would be but I am going to figure it out!

I love mine, only thing I would add is a few shell loops....

I love mine also it been just right for what i do . Im hoping i can isolate the noise and do something about it .
Looking it over today I di notice the little vecro loops that hold the metal frame in could be where the noise is comming from but i cant  seem to duplicate it until im sneaking around before daylight trying to be a ninja.  :toothy12:

Noticed the same sound in mine this year too while I was trying to sneak in on a roosted bird.  It was loud enough that I ditched the vest in the road and went in with only a gun and mouth call to get into position.

I emailed Cabelas this morn . I dont expect a new vest but they should be aware of the issue. Waiting a response.

Let us know what they say!

This is what i got from cabelas .. not much help.

Thank you for contacting Cabela's.


I am sorry to hear you are having a problem with the vest. The vest should not be making any noise like you are describing unless it is coming from the game pouch. With a mesh back it should be very quiet. Your feedback is important to us and has been passed along to our merchandising teams for future consideration. Thank you for taking the time to provide us with this information. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
