I am pretty happy with this walking vest for the price. I am a 5' 7" woman, of medium build. It was a little big in the shoulders. I wish those were adjustable. Otherwise, it definitely makes a difference on a walk and adds good resistance.

I'm 5'4" and I walk 6 days a week between 1-2 hrs each trip and find this vest pretty comfortable to wear. Because the weight is evenly distributed it doesn't feel like I'm walking around with an additional 10-lb's (that's nice!). The vest has padded extra wide shoulder straps, but I don't use them much:) After sinching the waste I find I'm so short in the torso that the vest actually rests on my hips and lifts the vest off of my shoulders. This is ok by me since I don't like weight pulling on my shoulders anyway. The dual stomach Velcro waste tabs are nice for making a snug fit, but I have a smaller chest and find it has a tendency to gap and look/feel bulky up top. I wish it had a second set of straps for the chest area. The placement of the weights is nice too (front and back only-none on the sides). I really only have one major complaint...I wish it had an easier way to pull the weights out (little sand bags). This vest has very small slits and it's a pain to remove all the bags when I want to wash the thing. I think a single Velcro flap covering the tops of each row for quick removal would be a huge time saver. All-in-all a good product and I'm glad I bought it.

I've had this weighted vest for ten years now and I really enjoy it. I am not a fitness gym type person - I don't regularly spend time in a gym or lift weights. I wanted something to add to my walking routine to build some resistance. This vest is excellent - it evenly distributes the weight and you can add weight to it, or take weight out of it. the sizing is really good (I'm like a 10/12 pants but closer to an XL for the bust area). I hang it on a strong, think plastic or wooden hanger. I can do work around the house and wear it at the same time. This is the time of year where I realize I've put a little too much padding on with the winter chill and this vest helps me get back into shape. And I don't need a replacement even after 10 years this Feb, 2022.

Very comfortable, even in heat (although I haven't tried it in 90+ temperatures). At first you may feel it adds nothing to your workout, but give it 10-15 minutes & you will be quite aware you're carrying 10 extra pounds. Even walking on a level surface seems to work the legs more than when not wearing it. It really helps you get more out of your workout. Recommend it very highly.
