Comfortable, Secure Weighted Vest That Adds Real Challenge to Workouts
This ZELUS weighted vest is well-balanced, comfortable, and stays put no matter what you’re doing. The weight is distributed evenly, so it doesn’t bounce around during runs, hikes, or strength training. The material feels durable, and the reflective stripe is a smart touch for early-morning or evening workouts. It adds just the right amount of intensity without feeling bulky, and the fit is snug without restricting movement. Whether you’re training for strength, conditioning, or weight loss, it delivers a noticeable boost in effort. A solid, reliable vest that makes every workout more effective.

Love the 20lb
I love this weighted vest! I got it for Christmas and have been using it for walks and runs. It fits securely and still allows really good movement, which was my biggest concern. The weight feels evenly distributed and comfortable, and the 20lb option adds a great challenge without feeling bulky. This vest is incredibly effective at increasing the challenge of my workouts without feeling uncomfortable or restrictive. It's also got a pouch for your phone! 10/10

Nice walking vest with reflective stripes
Weird smell at first but I think it's going away. Effective, comfortable, and adjustable across the chest. The cellphone holder can be annoying but it at least gives you the option to store your phone in the front if needed.

Vest is perfect, phone pouch is not.
The weighted vest itself is awesome. It does have a strong odor when you first get it, but I am sure it'll air out (just like any memory foam pillow/mattress). It's very comfortable and sits at the upper portion of the torso. Pretty straightforward to put on, secure, and adjust. My ONLY gripe is the included phone carrier. Pictures make it looks much larger than it is, as it does not fit my Galaxy 24 Ultra (doubt it'd fit any Pro Max iphone). If you have a smaller phone it'll prob be no issue, but I specifically chose this one to use the phone pouch, but it's too small unfortunately. I'll still use it and can probably still use the pouch for my phone, but I wouldn't be able to zip it up. Regardless, if you're just looking for the vest, it's comfortable and sure beats having the adjustable ones with bulky metal plates that make it feel extra stiff.

A "must add" to your workout routine.
Great quality at a good price. I have noticed a difference when wearing this while walking on the treadmill. I find my heartrate gets into zone 2-3 quickly without having to walk faster just by wearing the vest and taking the incline up a bit. It's easy to adjust on the fly and is very comfortable. My husband uses it during his workouts for things like lunges and squats. The weight is evenly distributed throughout the vest so it makes it easy to stay balanced.

Overall great purchase!
Got the 20 pound vest. Probably should have started lower but I recently lost 20-25 pounds so thought I'd add it back for walking/hiking. I am 5'2 and 145 (now). The vest does have a fairly strong chemical odor but that seems to be going away after about a week. 20 pounds is a lot heavier than I anticipated and my joints immediately felt the weight suddenly being added back on!. The vest is pretty comfortable and the weight distribution is good. I use this on my 1-2 mile dog walks and for that it is very comfortable. I have tried it on a longer (6 mile) walk with a few hills and I do experience some shoulder/upper back discomfort, which I hope will go away once my body adjusts. I couldn't imagine running in it but I am sure some brave souls do so!

Great fit and solid construction
I’ve been training with the ZELUS Weighted Vest for a few weeks now, and I’m genuinely impressed with the overall build quality and comfort. I chose the 12 lb version because I weigh 110 lbs, but I like that it comes in multiple weight options so you can start lighter and progress over time. What I love: Comfortable, secure fit. The vest hugs the body well without shifting around, even during runs or cardio workouts. The adjustable straps make it easy to adjust for the right fit. Even weight distribution. The weight is balanced front and back, which really helps avoid strain on the shoulders or lower back. Reflective safety strip. I don't run outdoors, but if you run early in the morning and at dusk outdoors , this small detail is surprisingly useful. Durable materials. The stitching and fabric feel strong. No leaking weight packets or frayed seams so far. Performance Results: This vest adds just the right level of resistance to push workouts to the next level—bodyweight squats, push-ups, stair runs, and even just walking feel more challenging in a good way. I’ve noticed improved stamina and muscle engagement, especially in my core and legs. Comfort Note: There is some shoulder pressure when wearing it for a long period, but that’s expected with any weighted vest. A quick adjustment or slight break usually solves it. Bottom Line: If you're looking to intensify workouts, improve endurance, or add resistance without complicated equipment, the ZELUS Weighted Vest is a great investment. Solid quality, comfortable fit, and well worth the price.

Zelus weighted vest
I purchased the 6 lbs because I am starting out. I am impressed with the overall Zelus build and comfort, as well that it comes in multiple weight options so you can start lighter and progress over time. It is comfortable and felt secure in its fit. The vest hugs my body well without shifting around, even during cardio workouts. The adjustable straps make it easy to adjust. And it has even weight distribution - front and back. The stitching and fabric feel strong. No leaking weight packets or frayed seams. It’s solid quality, comfortable fit, and am pleased with it.

I wanted a weighted vest to help me keep calm and focus. The market for adult vests is quite niche. I ordered the 4lb vest because I wanted to keep the impact on my shoulders less. It feels like wearing a backpack with a few books in it. I am a smaller person so the front clip was a good fit, but for larger chest sizes the vest strap my not fit. The extra phone strap thing is cool. The zippers clink together and make noise, so I covered on in tape. Would not recommend using while jumping.

I started running and working out with this forgot I’d have it on until I felt the extra burn. Only issue I have is when you use it next to skin you get a bunch of black residue on your body. also could be a bit heavier but you get what you pay for.

I am 119 pounds and got the 12 pound weighted vest. I find it gives a little added something when I am walking, but it is not heavy enough to hurt my back or shoulders or anything. Like others have mentioned the smell of this is absolutely terrible. I have been leaving it out on the deck in the sun to try and help get rid of the neoprene smell. I find also that I sweat like crazy while wearing this, although I am not a sweater just the material of this one. I am wearing it when I’m walking I sweat a lot. I guess that adds to the workout though. Definitely would recommend if you’re looking to add a little bit more weight to your walk and don’t want to use ankle or wrist weights. I find that it is really comfortable and does not shave at all and like the fact that it has the additional pouch for your phone.
