It ’s durable, well balanced, easy to put weights in and out and it doesn ’ t rub. I use this vest on runs and to do some workouts. Very pleased with the product!

Picked this up a few days ago to replace a lighter vest that was too fiddly( too many tiny weights), did n't hang the weight comfortably or tightly( I 'm 5' 9 '' and 160lb, athletically muscled with a 31 '' waist and S- to- M shirt size), and was exceedingly dorky looking. Having tested this on a hike and loading at- home weightlifting, I 'm very pleased. Pros: 1) 75lbs is a solid amount of weight at a reasonable cost.$ 200 is same as the 60lb Ethos vest, and much less than plate carrier and vest systems you need to buy weight for separately. Enough mass to progress with for a while. 2) reasonably finely adjustable but not fiddly. 3lb and 6lb increments mean you can dial in progressive overload well, without having to mess around with a ton of weights that take excessive time to load/unload. 3) pocket and weight system is very easy to use and adaptable. Big velcro pouches could fit other things- if you want to be able to increment in other multiples of 5#, buy or make( e. g. sand in a ziploc) yourself a 2lb or some 1lbs and they 'll fit securely no problem. Weights included are tightly packed sand, I think, inside of vinyl plastic containers, so you could probably also make/buy denser weights- lead fishing weights or shot, for instance- to get it even heavier than 75#. 4) I love the fit system. It has a zip on the front, and a single very large velcro waist belt that can be pulled as snugly as you like. I have n't tried any inverted exercises or jogging, but the attachment and fitment system should get tight enough to support that. Sits very comfortably, placing the weight nicely on the strong part of the shoulders, and you have two ways to get it on/off( overhead with the zipper left zipped, or unzip and take off like a jacket). Note my sizing above- other than the waist belt there's limited adjustability to the chest circumference, so YMMV. 5) style. Look, no one's winning runway shows wearing a weight vest. You 're going to look like cosplay SWAT or a terrorist. But, this one is n't bad- it's bulky like all heavy weight vesta but carries it nicely distributed around the body, and is certainly is not the most ridiculous vest I 've seen. Can also easily throw a light fleece vest over the top of it What would I change if I were a product designer: 1) I can not comment yet on durability, which I see was a ding on the 60# from Ethos on this site, so will be looking out for fraying. 2) it does n't have a cell phone/ keys pocket. I would n't trust the weight pouches for keys( they have gaps at the corners), and they load sideways while being too short for most modern smartphones. Wear something else with pockets to keep your phones/snacks/earbuds/etc in. 3) I wish it had a loop on the back/at the neck to hang up for easier loading/unloading 4) it does n't have any D- rings or similar built- in attachment points to hang stuff off, for added modularity.
