It's not the best vest on the market, it doesn't have 60 pockets, and it's not mesh so it hold in body heat when you wear it, but for under $10 it's a great value. Pros: The bottom of the zipper is up high, so you can wear a tool belt over the bottom of the vest (though a tool belt will cover the lower pockets and make them unusable). The material is a fairly strong polyester, so it won't discolor with sweat and it wicks moisture away and dries quickly. The colors are super bright, and the reflective stripes are highly reflective. The sleeves are a little oversized, which allows for some air circulation to keep the wearer a little cooler. Bonus: It's easily modified with a little sewing skill, which is the whole reason I bought it. I couldn't find one with the right configuration for my needs, so I picked up two of these because they're so cheap, and modified one into exactly what I want; I removed the bottom pockets and added belt keepers to attach a tool belt. I stitched a line up each chest pocket to add a pen pocket. I added a strip of webbing across the tops of the chest pockets (exactly like the microphone keepers the vest comes with) to provide a place to hang an ID badge. And I picked the seams of the horizontal orange strip to create four additional pockets for specialty tools that I carry. I did all of this in an afternoon with nothing but a sewing machine and a little hand stitching, and now I have a custom vest that fits, complies with my company's requirement for Class 3 PPE, and carries all my tools in exactly the places I want them for ease of use. Cons: The pockets have no flaps or Velcro to secure anything. The quality isn't as good as a more expensive vest, so mine came with a lot of loose threads that needed snipping or the seams might fray. Since it's solid polyester, it does get warmer than a mesh vest. It has no vents in the body to circulate air. The sleeves are oversized to allow for circulation, but that's not as effective as vents or mesh, and the billowy sleeves could pose a slight snag danger if you wear it around grabby machinery. It only has four pockets - two simple chest pockets and two simple cargo pockets at the belly. The chest pockets don't include pen pockets. Conclusion: If I had paid $30 or $50 or $150 for a vest, I would expect none of those cons, but they're all perfectly acceptable in a sub-$10 beater that I bought with the intention of modifying the crap out of it. At that price, I bought two with the expectation that I'd screw one up, or need the second one for additional materials, but it modified so easily that the spare is still sealed in its package on my shelf. Overall, this vest is an excellent value for the price, even if it's not as well-made or feature-packed as the more expensive vests. Two thumbs up, five-star value.
