KwikSafetyCharlotte, NC - FIRST LADY Safety Vest for Women, High Visibility Reflective Strips, Meets ANSI & OSHA

I absolutely love the vest I just got it in today it's really good qualification I love the color and to be honest with you the only downside I feel like with this which is not a big deal because it's not too much of a big deal but if I was to get this vest again I will try to go up a size cuz it feels like it was a little snug I don't know for sure if that's how it's supposed to be but I just it's not tight but it's snug and it felt very comfortable when I put it on it's definitely worth the money for it I would definitely have to buy this again but like I said before I might want to go up size oh and another thing is also how they advertised at the tiger print is all colorful on the side but that's not completely true so when you get it in the mail it'll have a black tiger print but when it hits the lights or whatever it's somewhat does flash rainbow tiger colors but other than that I really really do love it and I am so looking forward to going to work in it

· This is a high-quality, well-designed hi-vis safety vest for women!· I like the four pockets. The top left pocket has a front/back divider with pen/marker holders in the front and enough space behind that for my little notebook. I keep a sharpie, ballpoint pen and skinny OFF bug spray pump in the pen pockets. The items in the pen pockets stay put. This pocket is open, without a flap and no Velcro.· The top right pocket, has a Velcro closure and a front/back divider. You could keep a cell phone or work ID in this pocket. I use it to store my ChapStick®, After Bite® (https://www.amazon.com/After-Bite-Outdoor-Treatment-Antihistemine/dp/B07PH49W49/) and a few other items.· In the bottom right pocket, I keep a ziplock bag with candy. In the bottom left pocket, I keep my cell phone and work-device holder when I'm not wearing the device holder on my arm. My device holder is basically the equivalent of a cell-phone armband holder.· I tuck my neck lanyard ID badge into my vest while I am working so it stays out of my way.· I ordered the yellow medium size based on matching my measurements with the sizing chart, and my vest fits perfectly. I'm 5'8", 125 pounds, with a long torso, broad shoulders, a very feminine fit, athletic build. I've been wearing it for about four months.· To clean it, I put the zipper up and put it in the washing machine on the regular cycle, then let it naturally air-dry. It came out clean and the reflective surfaces held up just fine.· I wish the bottom pockets had a more robust velcro closure that extended the entire width of the pocket, because sometimes when I bend over, the contents will fall out. If the pocket was deeper, that would also prevent items from falling out.· I like that it is made for a female body. It's not tight or restrictive. The back has some stretchy material which is nice, so when I am: bending, pushing, pulling, twisting, stretching, moving/lifting items, the vest moves with me and it doesn't bunch up. It's never snagged on anything at work.· I like that it is mesh because I need something that is breathable, because I work in a fast-paced, very physical job in a hot warehouse. I typically wear a t-shirt underneath the vest, with pants or shorts. I don't wear a belt, but I don't think the vest would get in the way if you needed to wear a belt. I don't foresee any issues when I will need to wear layers in the winter.· The sides have a black stretchy, breathable material that doesn't interfere with movement. I like that the vest fits my body and it's loose.· Often I wear a Camelback/hydration pack over the vest. I have no problems with the vest and Camelback combo.· The reflective striping is comparable to the employer issued vests.· Other ladies in the warehouse have inquired where they can get a vest like mine.· I am a runner. If you are a walker or a runner and you want high-visibility, I think this vest would work just fine and would not interfere with movement or be too hot. It would probably work well for cyclists too.· I recommend this vest to all women who are required to wear a safety vest. For women who work or play under potentially hazardous conditions, get this vest!

I bought this as a replacement to the box like safety vest issued to me at work. The safety vests we are issued are built for men and felt very box like and were much to large and got in the way.I like the flattering cut of this safety vest. Warmth was not a factor when I made this purchase, as during the colder months a safety sweatshirt or jacket would be much more practical as this item is mainly mesh. I would order 1 size up next time, as a large feels more like a medium, not just in the chest and stomach area, but mainly in the armpit area. The fabric is not irritating though, so I have not noticed any friction burns or chafing in the armpits which one would expect while working during hot humid months with tight clothing on.It is very durable, and hold up well to intense use and movement, no pulling of hems or stitches and the zipper holds up very well.The pockets are useful, but the pencil pouches could be a little smaller. To date I have lost 6 pens and 12 markers somewhere in my warehouse because there is nothing to truly hold them in, I have taken to putting them in one of the lower pockets, since they are velcro shut. Lower pockets are not very practical, they are not large enough to carry a cell phone, or a full size box knife without them sticking out and potentially losing them. The placement of the upper pocket makes it very cumbersome to carry a small notepad or cell phone in it. I think larger pocket at the bottom would make this a more practical item.The garment does hold up well to washing, I've seen other safety vests fall apart first wash, so this was made with good materials. Since it is a ladies cut vest, it would be nice to see it available in safety pink as well.All in all, I would buy again, just one size up.
