Weighted Vest, 6lb/8lb/12lb/16lb/20lb/25lb/30lb Weight Vest with Reflective Stripe, Weighted Vest for Men Women Workout Equipment for Strength Training, Running, Jogging, Fitness, Weight Loss

Quite comfortable and not so big as to make me extra sweaty! Women - I would say - if you are large boned, broad shoulders & chest - I am 40” chest and muscular shoulders - this is barely big enough. Probably a bit too big on someone with a very narrow frame. I had 7 female clients try it on & those of us on the larger end (bra 38-42) were just barely comfortable and it was sloppy on the tiny girls.

Love this vest! Wasn't sure when I bought it how much weight would be too much. I decided 12 would be a goal to work towards. It was heavy to start but I like how the vest doesn't dig into my shoulders when I walk. I do wish the middle buckle stayed tightened, but I just readjust as I go. The detachable phone holder is a nice bonus. Quality seems good. Definitely would recommend this to someone who is looking for a vest to add to your strength routine.

Ordered Black & got grey, but went for a 5 mile walk in it today, and loved it. Wasn’t expecting to feel it even in my legs. Light smell, nothing intolerable.

I love this vest!Pros:-It’s comfortable.-It doesn’t slide around.-It has a double pocket that fits my phone or my baby monitor for my nap time treadmill walks.-The pocket is removable and can be attached pretty much anywhere.-The pink is super cute.Cons:-It rubs my underarm after a while. (I do one hour+walks.) but it’s no big deal if you wear a shirt with sleeves or if your skin isn’t that sensitive. I still don’t always wear sleeves so it’s really not that bad.-Kinda wish the weight was adjustable but that would require a totally different style.

I literally pulled this out of the package this morning, threw it on and went for a walk. At some point, I reached to my side to adjust my shirt and felt "sprinkles". I realized that the pellets were coming out! I was still about a mile from home but I was able to collect these at the end of my walk (see pic) - so for this one, the quality is not 100%. I'll return & try another one - really disappointed because I was very excited to try this out. Other than that, I loved it! It fits well. I was concerned about it being too tight around my breasts & the straps adjust perfectly. It feels heavy when you pull it out of the box but the weight distributes perfectly once it's on. It's not bulk, I was able to walk and jog with comfort; it's pretty sleek. I just wish it didn't spring a leak within the first hour of wearing it.Update after receiving a replacement: The being taped up was the first red flag. I peeled the tape back to find a torn box. I opened the box to find a used vest. It's not in the plastic packaging and is missing the velcro pouch. Unfortunately, I'll be returning this one as well and will go with another supplier. And I'm downgrading my rating after this experience.

Great investment for my training for a long hike. Glad I started with the 8lb, it took some getting used to, as one would assume.

Loved my vest for the first few weeks . I was mostly using it indoors on a tredmil. As the weather got better I put it on under a sweatshirt and walked in my neighborhood and one day last week when I got back from my walk and took it off there was sand all over me . I don’t see a hole but it seems to be seeping out of somewhere . Unfortunately it’s just past my return date so it was very short lived .

I recently saw the craze of wearing a weighted vest for losing weight while walking and decided to jump into buying this item. I compared to a couple of other brands, and decided on this brand as I wanted something (a) Easy to use and (b) Enough weight that it would feel like exercisingI'm a huge fan of walking around my neighborhood and while its great to get outside, I always have a desire to have just a bit more intensity and this hits that spot just right.I debated what size to get here and I went with the 25 lb vest as I felt it would be a good amount. I'm not too athletic but have lifted weights for a bit if that helps you in deciding what weight to get. I feel confident this weight will last me a good 5-6 months, if not longer.Fit wise, the vest glides on like a normal vest with an obvious difference of being heavy. Weight distribution is even across my shoulder and back and this is quite comfortable given how much it weighs. When you lift up the vest or open the box it is deceptively heavy because all that weight is focused on your hands / biceps, but once on your shoulders its excellent.I have worn this vest now for a good 10 hours, mostly walking around my neighborhood on flat land, and haven't felt any pains or issues caused by the weight and how it fits around me. I've even worn a Lululemon vest on top of this (I'm a Large in Mens) and it fit snuggly inside with the added warmth.While there are some vests that have removable weights I feel the main purpose of a vest like this is to go for a walk and strap it on and forget about it. If that's your goal, this vest is exactly for you. It is a bit pricey but if it continues to motivate me to walk for another few months I'll gladly accept the feeI may try the 30 LB vest in 6 months if I'm still using it, highly recommend
