I have several vests and needed one for the summer that had netting for airflow and that I could wash easily. This vest was perfect for me even though it is a lot more expensive than others that were in the $25 - $35 range. I liked the fact that it was a slightly longer length, lightweight, had the netting I needed for airflow, and had a lot of pockets the size I needed. My husband and I are volunteer docents at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, so spend a lot of time helping guests outdoors in the desert. This vest is perfect for the summer heat and makes it easy for us to carry a lot of what we need in the pockets. I also liked the hidden pockets and the RFID block on one of the pockets. It was a genius idea for them to put icons on some of the pockets so you knew what you might want to use those pockets for (e.g. cellphone). My husband was so impressed with my vest that he ordered one for himself.This is a great vest for summer travelers, too.

I’m 5’ 9” tall and weigh about 150 lbs. So I’m on the smallish end of Medium. Thus the vest is a bit large over just a t-shirt but I figure come autumn I’ll wear it over a sweatshirt or shirt jack. But the mesh back and light weight does not hold in the heat during the current summer weather. I’m pleased.I do outdoor event/ rally and protest photography. I usually carry two cameras with lenses and 2 extra lenses or a lens and a flash in reserve In the larger pockets at bottom front. . PLUS a small camera, like a Ricoh GR III for discrete shooting. I carry my main camera on a cross body Peak Design strap but the secondary and lighter weight camera on a Peak Design Strap Lite on the left shoulder secured by the Velcro epaulet.The small pocket on the upper left is ideal for spare batteries. The two pockets on the upper right hold 1) my senior citizen sun glasses (the kind that fit over one’s regular glasses.) and 2) a Manfrotto mini-tripod. The flap pocket below the battery pocket on the left holds my Ricoh GR III or WG 6 small camera.My phone goes in an inside pocket. Where there are plenty of other pockets for misc. items, like pens, medical masks and stuff I haven’t figured out that I need yet.I am training a small dog as well and He often accompanies me on camera outings. I keep a pouch of training treats in the smaller pocket on the back right and I can carry a small collapsible camp stool or a slightly larger tripod in the larger pocket on the back.This vest is much better than carrying a camera bag or photographer’s backpack for the kind of shooting I do.

I am a photographer but relegated to photographing from my wheelchair. I needed something to help me carry extra batteries, filters, cleaning supplies, lenses(smaller ones), gray cards and the like. This jacket has made it much easier for me to carry everything, including my phone. It's convenient to put your lens cap in, and keep spare batteries handy. It's lightweight with ventilation and so far has held up very well. I have not washed it yet, but I wear it over other clothes, so very little dirt or sweat would get on it. The pockets are velcro, so If that is difficult for you to work with, do what I do, I undo the velcro and tuck the tab into the pocket, leaving it opened for whatever I need to put in and take out. For my batteries, I leave the velcro closed since I don't need to get in and out of those pockets quickly. More pockets than you need. There are some inside pockets with zippers and velcro as well. Very easy to get to and use. There is a pocket on the back, I never use it. All in all, its a quality built jacked and I recommend it for whatever you need pockets for.

This is a very good buy. The vest is made of quality material, and came very well packaged. The jacket has just the right amount of pockets--not so many that you will be asking yourself what you are going to put in them, and not so few that you will have to load up your pants pockets. Most of the outside pockets have velcro fasteners rather than buttons or snaps, and there is a "hidden" inside zippered pocket. I like the small outside left breast pocket, which is perfect for an mp3 player, or sunglasses. The large bottom outside pockets are adequate for many things like a small book, maps, etc, and there are two elongated pockets on the right breast that will house sunglasses, pencils, flashlight, etc. The bottom back section has two pockets: one large and one small, which are adequate for a water bottle or a light rain jacket. It also has inside pockets for wallet, digital camera, etc. The vest hangs well and even when fully loaded is very comfortable to wear. This vest will be great in the summer months, because the entire upper back panel of the vest is mesh material, so it will breathe easily. The collar is also slightly raised to pad your neck from a camera strap, and will keep the vest from digging into your neck when full. Overall, this jacket is very functional and well thought-out; it is everything I had hoped it would be. I am very pleased with this purchase.
