Heavy, but evenly distributed

Heavy, but evenly distributed
This mess is a beast when you want a solid challenge with your workouts. Wear it on the stairmaster, the treadmill, elliptical AND when you’re doing free weights and squats. Give yourself that additional push. Now, prepare for your back to hurt, but also, prepare for your back to no longer be big. 😁

5.0 out of 5 stars Great product. Exactly as advertised!
Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2023
Size: 60 lbColor: BlackVerified Purchase
I purchased to 60 pound vest and have been using it for about a month. The first thing I noticed was the quality of the material and the solid craftsmanship. This vest is expected to haul around heavy weight and it uses materials suitable for the job. The strength and stitching is what you need to do the job. It’s definitely not a cheaply made product.

I started with 24 pounds to get a feel for the pack. I soon added another 12 pounds to 36 and will be adding another 12 in the coming days. The addition/subtraction of weight is easy - just slip the weights in/out. Takes seconds.

I did not order the should pads when I bought it. This may have been a mistake. About two weeks into my daily use of the best my shoulders were literally killing me. It was about the time I added weight. Instead of waiting for shoulder pads I stole four sponges from my wife’s kitchen supplies and used two for each shoulder. PROBLEM SOLVED!

The weight definitely adds a challenge. I use the vest on my daily 5.5 mile walks. The vest gets my heart rate going a lot more and I’m spending most of my time in Zone 2 and Zone 3. Before it was mostly Zone 1. Nice for the heart and the fat burn.

I’m really pleased with this product. It adds a great element to my walks. Gives me that “spent” feeling, which I didn’t really get from walking without the vest.

It’s great finding a product on Amazon that actually does what it says!

Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2024
Size: 50LBS WITH SHOULDER PADSColor: BlackVerified Purchase
Decent vest. I am assuming that each pouch is holding an equal amount of weight, I have not taken the time to weigh them to check. It has to go on over your head, which when you have a lot of weight in it can be a challenge if you are say in a basement with a lower ceiling and you are 6'5". Once on, I find the vest decently comfortable as long as I am standing. I am assuming it is a function of my size, but the vest sits very high on my torso, and does not come down to my waist as it looks to do in the pictures. Sitting in the vest can get uncomfortable, which is unfortunate as I am trying to just wear it throughout the day while I work at my home desk job, so that I get a little more out of the times I move around.
All in all it is does the job that I want with some minor complaints. I would recommend if you don't think the things I have mentioned would be a problem for you.

Reviewed in the United States on August 18, 2023
Size: 40 lbColor: BlackVerified Purchase
This an excellent workout tool, good quality canvas. Well thought out. Stitching is very good. I bought the 40 lb version probably an overkill for me but they have smaller weight versions. Mine came with five pockets in the front and five in the back. It came with 10 sand bags each sand is 4 lb each for 10 bags for a total of forty pounds. This is very versatile as you can add or subtract weight depending on your workout. I use it for lunges, squats, pushups, step ups and long walks. How ever I must advise caution. When going on long hikes you should start with a low weight and add weight ass you’re body gets used to the extra weight. The extra weight can affect your joints (ankles, knees, pelvis) especially going down an incline plane. You’re skeletal structure will get use to the extra weight with time and recovery. The body is an amazing thing just ease into it especially if you’re older, have joint problems or being out of the game for a while. All in all this a great exercise tool at a reasonable price. Worth it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great vest- one grip
Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2024
Size: 40LBS WITH SHOULDER PADSColor: BlackVerified Purchase
Got mine today and it replaced a competitor vest with 30lb in it I had been using for a while, the older started to rip and rather than try to replace it, I wanted to try something new. So glad I did. The vest closes exactly how you would expect - a huge win vs the other. The straps on the other vest were pitiful to be honest.
Today was my first workout with it, 2 seperate 1 mile walks with an X3 workout in between. It was a little more intense in the shoulder but it was 10 more pounds. BTW, Do NOT skip the shoulder pads. You've been warned. You will feel pain if you are not used to it and skip. Heck, I may feel pain tomorrow from it, we'll see.

Now some grips. One reason I bought this one, place for phone or headphones. Water bottle, well it's practically in my arm pit almost. I was able to get one in, but this part needs a rethink. Getting it in and out while wearing the vest, not so much. The strap to tie it in....meh on its first time use. Also I can't figure out how the thing opens for the headset/phone. Like wth. Zipper? "Open says me". Also, I tend walk at night, a reflective tape on the flap in back cover the top of the weights would be a nice addition or a little sleeve/ thing to attached a light vs clipping it on the back of the vest. It popped off when I was putting the vest on the first time. Apparently my head is more rotund than allowed for, though the shoulder pads do take up some room. For some reason I thought the vest was a bit longer? At least from the pictures I expected the weights to be at belly height, the vest makes it halfway through my abdomen. I'm not that tall, 5'11". The folks in pic must be a lot shorter.

More positives...the quality is great. Thick pieces, velcro on the shoulder pads is good, they wrap tightly around the already sturdy shoulder parts.

So...not perfect but really good at it's core function. Based on what I see in materials and workmanship combine with my experiences with the other brand, it will last a long time.

I look forward to many many miles.

5.0 out of 5 stars sturdy, comfortable and heavy
Reviewed in Canada on April 6, 2024
Size: 60LBS WITH SHOULDER PADSColor: BlackVerified Purchase
Ordered 60 pounds vest, comes with 10 6-pound satchels of weight. Best way to take out and put in weights is when the vest is laying on a surface, but rather hard to do while wearing the vest.
Seems sturdy and comfortable, even without shoulder pads.
Make sure to load even weight on front and rear of the vest, otherwise it will start sliding down to the heaviest side while you exercise.
Vest is also a bit too long for me (5'9" / 175cm) , so when I squat, bottom of the vest is interfering with my thighs, but not too terrible.
p.s. 60lb is A LOT of weight, if you are not used to something like this. But you can just take weights out!

5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE this vest for Running & Treadmill - Feel like a bad-ass
Reviewed in Canada on August 18, 2023
Size: 40LBS WITH SHOULDER PADSColor: BlackVerified Purchase
A great quality vest for the price point. I have been using this for over a week now, daily, and it's so easy to get on and off, as well as feel like a bad-ass when you are wearing it. I currently use the 16lbs total weight but this can go up to 40 lbs. I would recommend the Shoulder guards that are a few dollar more. I have run in this, as well as walked and mostly so far, spend time on the inclines on the treadmill. The down side: You will SWEAT a Lot.. the upside: You will sweat a lot and feel great after it. Lastly, it will fit snug if you want it or looser. The velcro and kit is all well made. I was happily surprised as it was lower than the others, cost wise, but works great.
