I’m 63, <=mediocre jogger (slow as f.) I bought the 25 lb vest and at first I thought “this is going to be like carrying an anvil on my run.” 1st run was wacky, 2nd run discovered I wore it upside down on 1st run. Two weeks now and wearing it correctly and it’s fantastic. It’s giving me more effort with less time. Comfortable (right way round), doesn’t bounce, doesn’t throw off my balance which I feared. Seems very well made. It’s also added the benefit of me holding my core tighter. I love the design were I don’t have to wear a tight belt while jogging, to me it’s not too bulky. After taking it off you feel like you could flutter around the room flapping your arms. 100% recommend. Read more
I really like this item. I bought the 16 lb version (I weight about 170) it seems perfect weight to me. I bought it for walking, at first it felt fairly heavy, but now after a few weeks I'm actually able to jog with it for several miles and it is pretty decent for jogging, it fits snug and feels pretty nice. I recommend this item, I do wish it had a water bottle holder and ability to add additional weight but it's a good and well made product. I do not know if it has made me a better runner, but I do think it provides additional challenge and increases your strength. Read more
Not the most comfortable on the shoulders, but the weight distribution is good. Does bounce a bit while running but doesn't bother me too much. Fits well. Very durable, I hang it in my gym locker by the shoulder straps and it has held very well. Overall happy with it. Read more

This is exactly what my 19 year old son needed to help train for National Guard. They will be doing a 5 mile ruck with 35 lbs so I bought him the 30 lb and it is perfect. He is 6 ft 2 in so I was worried it would not fit properly, but it fits perfect to his body. The weight is evenly distributed and the material is durable and high quality. If/when he upgrades to jogging, his hands/arms are free to easily move about. He has used it 6x and loves it. VERY HAPPY WITH THIS PURCHASE!! Read more
