Can someone that owns one of the Safety Vests comment as to what they think about it?

I have used a safety belt for years. Last year I tried one of the full body harnesses, but it was a pain to get on. Straps always seemed to be tangled up. So I went back to the belt.

I've wondered the same thing. I have a full body harness, but rarely use it, its a pain to put on in the dark...I end up giving myself a wedgy with one leg in an arm hole.

The vest looks interesting, storage for gloves, calls, ect. and looks a lot easier to get on and off, and a lot less tangles.

The problem I have with vest is the leg straps,they need to be sown to the outside hip area, like full body harness, the way they're now they come right under the family jewels. Try one on and you'll see what I mean.

That sounds painful in a fall

yes the leg harness are close to crotch no question about it just like a rappeling harness or parachute! it is supossed to be sinched up some what snug, i tossed myself out my stand 4 feet off the ground with it on. it held quite well and iam big boy very comfy and easy to get on and off no messing around put it on and snap in thats it, my only comment is i cut off the d-ring drag ring on it it clanked once! others i know have either dipped theres heat shrinked or taped theres up but it is very nice and sturdy and the best i have ever used . non better in my book.

Do the leg straps have click-fit type buckles for easy on/off or must you slip your legs thru first and then put on the shoulder straps and vest?

 

[deputy]

click fit

Easy fix... I wrapped Electrical tape around the front end of the leg holes, NO WAY to mix up even in the dark, you can feel the tape, so you know its right

Having not seen this vest harness pictured above,I am confused. If you can unbuckle the leg straps,why must you mark the 'leg holes'? Is this because are you stepping out of the leg straps rather than unbuckling them when removing this harness?

 

[deputy]

he is talking about the full body harness not the vest

I bought one this year, and love it. Only problem I had was that I
bought the Medium, and had to wear it under my coat when it got too cold. Wouldn't expand enough, shoulda bought the Large.
