Bought the vest with the 10lb weights, thought 20lbs was no big deal, well after running a few times with the 20lbs my 57yo knees were feeling it. Dropped down to the 5lb weights (10lb total) and much better. Can complete my runs and not hurt so much, just know what you can do. Read more
8.85 vest plate. I really like the rounded corners and cut-away. This makes certain movements much more comfortable. The plates are within a few hundredths of an ounce of the advertised weight. The curve at the top has taken some getting used to, but after a week, not a problem—just different than my previous plates. If I could give them an extra star for customer service, I would. They had a mix up on the Amazon site and accidentally shipped me the 5.85 lb plates initially. But they shipped the 8.85 lbs plates free of charge, without any hassle. When I need a new vest, I’ll definitely look to REP first Read more
The weights that come with the vest do not fit in the vest. Read more
Great design and great looking while being comfortable Read more
Quality workmanship. The padding and fit is reasonably good. The cut of the front panel could allow for more space to accommodate the neck particularly with activity. Would like to see a machine washable option. Read more
Excellent product I love this vest. I have completed my first half Murph challenge in it today. It is very comfortable, has a solid build, is very stylish, has great ventilation, and has good-sized pockets. The weights look fantastic. Rep Fitness has another solid product. I went with a 22 lb setup: 2x10 lb plates and a 2 lb vest. I am a 5'9", 160 lb male. It's fantastic; it doesn't move around a lot and stays locked in. I would not recommend it shirtless unless you have alligator skin or are very tough. I wear an undershirt. The first time I wore it without a shirt during a workout, my nipples hurt the next day, but that doesn't take away from the quality. I am more than 100% satisfied and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a weighted vest to up their gains. Read more
