Dib Safety Vest Reflective Orange Mesh, High Visibility Vest with Pockets and Zipper, Heavy Duty Vest Made with 3M Reflective Tape M

BOTTOM LINE: Decent enough lightweight vest with good features, but the build quality is like most everything else coming out of China: piss poor and apparently designed to fall apart quickly. This vest is alright, but I honestly expect more for my hard-earned dollar. This vest is more of a manager style, not something that would last long if used by someone who is doing intensive, regular physical labor. This is an okay vest but for what you get, quality-wise, it should be $5-$10 cheaper. YMMVTHOUGHTS: Most likely these things are banged out by a machine, but you'd think an actual human being would at least do random QC inspections at some point. On my vest there were threads hanging damn near everywhere - right out of the package. The velcro closure on the bellows cellphone pocket started coming loose on the very first day and within a week had fallen off completely. Not that it matters; the hook & loop materials used are garbage; they started pulling apart and thinning from the very first use. I will be having my wife sew on new, more robust velcro pieces so that the pocket is actually usable as intended.On the good side, the cell pocket does hold fairly large-ish size phones. My old Samsung J7 Crown personal phone and my Samsung Galaxy S22 work phone (both with thick rubbery anti-shock cases) fit in it with no problems. This vest has large pockets at the waist and the mesh construction breathes well enough. Two inside pockets, but no side entry/hand warmer pockets. 3M reflective material works as it should, although they only recommend a max of two dozen washings before the 3M loses it reflectivity. Just know that unless you baby this vest, it probably won't last very long. I gotta have something on my job that keeps all my necessity items close at hand while doing office data entry, with random factory computer input out on the shop floor. This vest fits the bill well enough I suppose, especially since the flimsy vests supplied by my company are even thinner and crummier than this one.

Wore this during a recent equipment survey for a transit client with whom I am working. It has a lot of pockets which is nice both outside and a few inside. It is very breathable which I am sure will be appreciated as it gets warmer out. Nice construction overall.

I need to wear a vest when I'm out on the floor. Some days that is pretty often. I'm a male, 6' 4", 220LBS and the vests they had available at work, well the largest, looked like a sports bra on me. Barely hit the bottom of my rib cage. I got the 3X and it fits perfectly. Love the zipper. Keeps you from looking sloppy. Shows off my physique pretty well. The pockets are good for all my doodads I have to carry. Sounds silly that you want to look good in a safety vest but as a operations manager I like to look like I have may errr stuff together at all times. Not having a raggedy safety vest helps.

This is to help a friend to buy, the friend said the quality is very good and I like it very much, so it is safer at work.

True to size, comfortable and nice looking.

A lil thicker so you know it will last. Very breathable and the zippers are great

use this for walking running early morn. highly visible, I realized I could shine my led flashlight on the vest & see the reflection light up street signs hundreds of feet away. pockets are handy. however be aware, they make these knowing you're wearing them over clothes or even coats. Probably knowing that people would less likely send them back by being too big rather than too small. I ordered an extra large to go over a light jacket and going by the reviews and found it to be huge as the weather warms up had to order all the way down to medium to fit a little bit closer to the body over a T-shirt. Nobody wants a vest flopping around in the wind, so I personally would order a size smaller than you think as well as the recommended size and just send the other back.

Good quality
