247 VizReflective Running Vest for Women & Men,High Visibility Reflector Vest with 2 Bands,Lightweight & Comfy Running Gear

This vest does just what I wanted it to do, make me visible to cars when I'm walking outside in low light. It appears reasonably sturdy, and comfortable. My arms and neck, and legs are free of any binding and its full of ventilation holes. Its not cold enough outside for me to try under a bulking jacket yet, but it looks like it should still fit as the side velco straps are a good length for adjustment. It warns that the reflective strips may eventually dim after many washings. Its still very clean and looks to be very easy to gently hand wash, as I would do if it ever needed it.

Nice quality, bright, lightweight mesh with good reflectivity. My husband wears it for evening runs and biking home at night and says the cars give him lots of space because he's so visible. I wear it to walk home from work and feel much safer that I'm being seen when it gets dark. The small size fits us both just fine-we are around 5'5"-5'6" and the vest ends at the top of my hip. Fits securely over a jacket and sweater combo. The adjustable Velcro bit that sticks out can catch on softer clothing like fleece or soft sweaters. The armbands that come with the vest are too large so I attached it to the top of my backpack's hook loop since my pack covers up the back of the vest. It comes with instructions for how to keep it nice- after 25 washes or long exposure to sunlight, the reflectivity can get reduced. I keep it in a tote bag when not in use. It's a great product for my needs!

Note - there are two versions of the high-viz vest, one with denser material and one with a lighter mesh. The denser is brighter by far, but much less breathable. The one I'm reviewing here preferable for vigorous activity.I purchased this vest for two reasons - hiking and running. It is suitable for both - perhaps hiking/walking on the road more than running, since it isn't as light or breathable as alternatives. This is a vest where you trade those two qualities for greater visibility.Pros:Very visible, there's great coverage with the high-viz material and prominently-placed reflective stripes. This means it works very well in the day and the night.I like the design myself, more than most vests on the market, there's enough material here that it both avoids the "sports bra" look. It also lays flat and doesn't appear to be disheveled.It is quite secure if you get the right size, it doesn't bounce around or get out of place as you move.Cons:Despite the claim, the vest is still a little weighty and bulky compared to other offerings on the market. This emphasizes visibility, not airflow or weight. So if you want to stash this in a hiking pack for rare use, you will end up carrying more weight than necessary.My only real complaint is that the flaps on the side are a reflective material rather than a mesh, even though that is where the vest is most likely to make contact with the body. I found some perspiration build up in that area even when running in cool temperatures. I will lay out a grid and use a leather punch to ventilate that area, but it's a relatively obvious oversight in the design.Fit:I am a 5'10, fit male. decent muscle mass all around but not too bulky, ~33" waist and 40" chest. I tried both the small and the medium and the small is perfect for running, conforms well to the body. Medium is too large and has about 2-4" of extra length at the bottom flaps. If I were wearing this with a jacket or normal clothes while walking, then the medium would be better, but since I'm wearing only a compression shirt while running, the small is the way to go. In fact, I plan on stashing the medium I purchased in my car for contingencies.Broadly; would recommend.

This is a reflective vest. It reflects as advertised.

Bought a medium for myself to fit over coats in Minnesota and a small for my dog. Cars see us coming from far away. Easy to slip on. Comfortable fit. Perfect for walks in the evening.

It works. It’s very light, it seems small.

Once fall arrives and it gets dark early, the dogs still want to go for a walk. If you live in a dark part of the suburbs like us with very few street lights, you need some sort of protection from speeding cars. These vests help make us noticeable to passing vehicles. You can definitely spot us from the front and the behind.We also utilize headlamps and blinking clip on devices, and with this vest, makes us more noticeable and less apt to be hit.Maybe one day they will make dog sizes/They are pretty comfortable and fit under most jackets and sweatshirts. We purchased them for our entire family of 5.

I bought this vest in 2019 and it is still going strong today, 3 years later. It shows signs of absolutely no wear and tear. I have poor vision and want to be sure people see me when I'm out. This definitely does the trick! I specifically ordered pink because it's a color you don't see in nature and I really wanted to stand out. I love the inside pocket for my phone and use the straps across the front of my bicycle basket for extra visibility. The only downside I have is that the velcro initially was too snug and the part that wasn't attached would stick to my shirt, causing slight damage. To remedy the issue I simply found a similar color of fabric scraps and placed it over the velcro that stuck out. Currently proud to say I no longer have that issue because I'm smaller and the Velcro fits perfectly. Highly recommend this vest, will definitely buy a new one if this one ever wears out.
