    Reactions to my trip using Best Travel vest

    I have owned the vest for only a few weeks and bought it to wear on a trip to New Mexico in the summer. First off. it is light so it worked even in 90-degree weather. (Though, I do have a summer vest with a lot more venting, BUT the pockets are small and few.) Second, pockets galore! I really like the security with the zippers and felt that everything was kept safe. It really can hold a lot of stuff and so can get heavy, but then you don't need a backpack. I only had a phone and no other electronics, but the tablet pocket worked well for 8x11 papers that I carried. You can lose track of where you put what. I had to search several times, but you start getting used to that. After researching the vest, I got one size bigger than I usually would just so it wouldn't seem tight, and it worked well.

    All in all, I found it very useful and will probably continue using it instead of my summer vest until the winter hits. Then I might switch to my winter vest with decent pockets.

    Thanks so much for the thoughtful review! We're thrilled to hear the vest worked well for your New Mexico trip-even in the heat,and that the pockets and security features came in handy. Totally hear you on the “pocket treasure hunt” at first, it definitely becomes second nature over time. We’re glad you found a good fit and hope it serves you well for many more adventures!

    Too early to tell, really

    It is too thick to be used in the heat of the summer. Historically, vests like this have had zipper problems for me. I've had zippers replaced on two vests. Insufficient data on this one. I will need at least six months for a proper evaluation. The color is nice. What I want is something in between my featherweight vest and this vest, with as light a color as possible to minimize heat absorption. I have been pretty happy with ScotteVests (and their other products) over the years, so I think this will work out for travel during cooler weather, especially autumn.

    Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! You're absolutely right—some items really needs time in the field to show its strengths. We appreciate you sharing your past experience with zippers and your desire for a lightweight, light-colored option that bridges the gap between the Featherweight and thicker vests. We’ll make sure your request gets passed along to the design team.
