Pioneer Hi Vis Sleeved Safety Vest For Men & Women - Class 3 - Reflective Tape, Breathable - Pockets - Yellow/Green

This is just what I wanted P class vest. It's hard to find the shorter P class vest. I didn't want a lightweight mesh vest as I wear it open for dog walking and to access treat holder on belt. This is not mesh, fabric is heavier so the front will not be blowing open at the slightest breeze. Well made, no crooked seams or loose threads. I'm female, small frame, 5'1" and got the XL based on some reviews saying it runs small. XL is way too big even with a heavy jacket. It hangs like a kimono. I may take a M but I'm going to try a L size first. I think this is a good vest for workers to use.

Good Quality

I work as a flagger for construction crews and this is one of the best vests I've used for work. It's got 4 full-sized pockets: big enough for a bottle of water, my phone, snacks and various other items. The straps at the top are perfect for my radio, whether on the right or the left. It's rather lightweight, has a very sturdy zipper and the reflectors stand out in the dark rather well. I have a few criticisms. The vest can start to look cheap with repeated washes. I manually dry the vest to help save the fabric reflectors and I only wash on delicate and cold temperature. This brings me to issue two: it's unraveling. There are strands of thread that are randomly coming loose, from the pockets to the reflectors. Mind you, everything is still on the best just missing a thread here or there. It's not a good look. Those are really the only issues I've faced. I bought a large because it fits better than medium, which is too tight even though medium is my clothing size for shirts and pants. I've actually gotten 2 (one from my job) and it's going through the same issue as the one I bought off Amazon. It's maddening! I want so badly to give it 5 stars but those two issues are glaring. Better build quality can be had at this price point; I shouldn't have to pony up $32+ to get a vest that I'll get filthy and have to buy again. It does all that is advertised but it's just not tough enough. The durability needs to be improved. Otherwise, a solid choice. I'd still recommend it.

Good quality and value for the price

This is an awesome vest for the price. Better than others that are priced between $20-$30. Pros: fits like any other (I bought an XL), lots of pockets, 2 mic tabs, zipper closure, two-tone, reflective tape doesn’t fade after 3 weeks. Cons: no Velcro to close the pockets, not very breathable during the summer months, not very long (my t-shirt is longer). Overall this is a great quality vest. I’ve washed it a few times already and the reflective tape held up unlike other vests I’ve purchased.

Great price and very convenient. The zip-up style is easier and more comfortable than Velcro or belted options I have used for hiking, jogging, walking. It’s also of much more sturdy construction than other items I have tried. I mainly bought this for walking the dog at night. It has been comfortable over multiple layers and is light enough that it doesn’t seem like it would be hot in the summer. I love the pockets for treats, tissues, and waste 💩. I have had more than one motorist stop and tell me how easily visualized we are and thank me for being a responsible pedestrian.

Great fit

Have to wear for work and this fits the bill has plenty of pockets and waist pockets have flap thats cover. Which I need because I get debris in other vest that have open pockets from cleaning out hopper of street sweeper. Company gives us the cheapest vests only last a couple weeks and close w. velcro. This has zipper way better.
