Radians SV55 Class 2 Heavy Woven Two Tone Engineer Vest with Padded Neck to Support Extra Weight in Cargo Pockets, Hi Viz Green or Hi Viz Orange

I love this safety vest. It's durable and well fitting. I noticed when I take the vest off it always feels like I forgot to take items out of of pockets but it's just a well built vest.. it's weighty but it's a comfortable fit.. It's got the pockets I need and more pockets than I'll ever use but it's good knowing they are there.The only thing I don't like is that my shirt sleeves stick to the velcro on the chest pockets. When I have a two way radio in the chest pockets the velcro can be annoying by either grabbing my shirt or scratching at my forearms. I fix this by tucking the pocket flap inside.There is a thick strip of padding on the back collar which is a nice feature. Many vests rub into the back of my neck but this one is form fitting around my neck and stays in place. I've washed this vest two times already using different methods. First I soaked the vest in warm water and layer it out flat and using a gentle scrub brush and some dawn dish soap and pumice hand cleaner I was able to get the grease out. Just need to be careful using the brush on some areas as it tends to weaken the fabric straps by the reflective tape. The second wash method was to simply throw the vest in the washing machine with my normal work clothes, jeans and T shirts. Worked like a charm. I'm always afraid of shrinking items like this so I find it best to let the vest air dry. It actually dries fast."normal" typical vests are flimsy and don't gold up well. This vest is a step up and if you work a job there it's NOT co sidereal a "supervisors" vest then go for it. Feel comfortable while you work. For the price it's a VERY good purchase and I recommend it 100%

I write this review in disappointment. It was great for about 2 weeks. Lots of pockets and it fit very well. but then i noticed the biggest issues. The stitching is sub par. First, they stitching started got give way on parts were there was more stressed areas, namely velcro points but as the weeks went along, the stitching started becoming undone on areas that used less so. I started restitiching these areas or adding brush on gorrilla glue on areas that started to be an issue to prevent more damages. Eventually it was too much, I would have to end up doing this for the entire blasted vest. I really liked this design. It was functional and had may pockets that I would end up using most of them. Unfortunately, i'm in the market for a new vest. This vest is really only good if you need to just pull one out from time to time to show that you just do have a vest. But then why bother spending $35 if a much cheaper $5 would suffice and get a the same effect?

Great vest! Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a vest with lots of pockets like I was for use when doing drone work to stash extra batteries. The fit was as expected I normally wear a 3xl and the 3xl fit perfectly with room for a jacket if needed in the winter, the sizing guide said I was an XL... I recommend going with what you normally wear as a shirt size. Speedy delivery it was shipped and at 2am on the day of the delivery and delivered at 1:30 pm I WAS SHOCKED!

Been running it for 6 months as a soil and concrete tech, in other words, I get very dirty all the time. Mud, dust, concrete, etc etc. Holds my note book, iPad, note 20, plenty of pens, and paint cans very easily and without hardly noticing the weight. Washes well and maintains color decent. Finally looking to replace it, but it's been 6 months, which is great for a vest IMO. I will say that the velcro could hold better on the heavy use pockets, but thats really my only complaint.

Ordered two. Read reviews that stated they ran small. Should have went by my gut instinct and ordered the size i normally wear. Sent back with no hassle and was promptly refunded. Reordered my size and it fits perfect. This is a really great product. I will buy this again.

I love these vests for working. They make a good wind breaker when outdoors too. Plenty of pockets for gadgets like laser measuring tools, GPS, radios, compass, pens, paper, gloves, etc. Sturdy construction holds up with heavy use.

I love it and have recommended it to co-workers. A lot of pockets to hold almost anything you may need. Clean in the washer and hang dry to ensure no damage to the reflective material or the hook and loop closures. The zipper has an easy way to take off and replace. I have no negatives for this product.

Lots and lots of pockets! For big stuff like flashlights and small stuff too. Very light material great for Florida Summers.

Great quality and lots of pockets and comfortable with extra neck padding . . Great value
