The LightEST Vest for Men is the 2025 update to the lightest weight vest we had ever made, the Featherweight Vest introduced in 2015.  We know how much you love the Featherweight, so we kept the best parts - exceptionally lightweight fabric and secure pockets! 

The LightEST Vest fabric is super soft and light as a feather!  With 16 thoughtfully designed and ergonomically placed pockets, you'll have easy access to all your essentials.  Both exterior chest pockets have hidden gems!  One has a cell phone pocket-in-pocket and the other an eyeglass/sunglass pocket-in-pocket with attached chamois.  The new back pocket has access zippers on both right and left sides.  The RFID pocket is now built-in, removing bulk and streamlining the fit.   The 16 pockets are designed to accommodate modern devices, as well as your favorite features like the detachable key holder.  We know you'll love our latest and lightEST!

    Great vest for travel ... and more

    I bought a vest last month after a recent trip to Paris where I was frustrated at lack of sensible accessible secure storage for my phone, passport, documents, keys, camera and travel guidebook. Moreover, having both hands full carrying bags as I travelled on the Paris metro, I felt vulnerable to potential pickpockets.

    So when I got home, I decided to research something better for an upcoming trip to London (which I have just returned from) ... and this research led me to the SCOTTeVEST website.

    I'm delighted with the LightEST Vest that I bought. It was perfect for my needs :- light weight for travel through airport and on the London Underground, and with multiple secure pockets. I was even able to bring a portable umbrella (in the large Tablet pocket) without having to bring a day bag - perfect for unpredictable London showers.

    Going through airport security was so easy :- I just put the bag on the conveyor belt bin without emptying anything out ... and it allowed me to carry just a few extras that cabin baggage allowances normally won't allow.

    I'm really delighted that it lived up to my expectation ... and the added bonus is that I'm getting to use it for more than just a travel vest :- as a lightweight extra layer when working in the office.

    Great travel vest. Passing through TSA security was a breeze. Loved the vest's pocket organization. Didn't have to empty my pockets. Just put the vest into the tub with my travel items and through X-ray done.

    Lightest vest

    Here in Texas the heat can make carrying anything uncomfortable. Not with a Scotevest. Air flows around you and you move freely.
