Simply the finest and, accordingly, expensive.
By Doug LaFleur
There is not much more to say than what is contained in the title. The tailoring is exquisite, the design and construction, flawless. I live in south Louisiana, however, and when temperatures exceed the mid 70s, this garmet is just too hot. I thought as much before I bought it, anticipating that its use would be limited to the months of October through March. For those wanting the very best and/or who live in cooler climates, I can't rate this item high enough!

Good quality, shorter than I'd like
By Robert Gryphon
Nicest quality photo vest I've seen since Willis & Geiger. Though that's not saying a lot. Far nicer than the Domke, for example, which is just another cheapo import.Pocket layout is unusual; works well enough, but not revolutionary. Breast flaps tend to hang open. Black liner is an odd choice, but I don't dislike it. Collar gathers sweat, recommend a collared shirt under it with shirt collar folded out over the vest's collar.Much shorter than other vests; comes to about belt level. In case you were thinking of using it for concealment, forget it. True to size, i.e., I wear an XL as usual.To anyone who says this vest is hot to wear: duh! Welcome to any vest, ever. That's why most military use a web harness instead of a tac-vest.
