Review on Gihuo Men'S Fishing Vest Multi-Pocket Utility Travel Safari Shooting Vest by Bob Kandravi

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very pleased - here’s why

My review is on the perceived quality of this vest. I’ve yet to get rough with it, and I will. With that said, I examined all the stitching and all is in order. I’m rather fussy about how clothing is stitched and have returned items for that reason, poor stitching. No worries with this vest. Stitching is consistent, neat and tight.Pockets: five Velcro closed pockets, five zipper closed pockets. There are also two easy access pockets on either side if you want to warm up your hands quickly or grab your Carmex etc. It’s evident to me, great thought was put into the arrangement of TEN pockets on the front of the vest. All of them are easy to get to and open/close and each pocket is placed in an area where it can serve a purpose without crowding other pockets.The only thing that I found unusual is the fact that the zipper is a left zipper, like one might find on a woman’s coat. That feature I’m not crazy about but I can deal with it. I’m more than happy with this vest, I’m thrilled! The quality seems better than expected and the lightweight, breathable fabric will allow me to sit in the warm sun without baking.Overall, 100% satisfied. Will put it to the test over the next two weeks. If it holds up I’m going to get one more in a different color for myself as well as several for gifts for brothers and brothers in law.UPDATE: I am a size 42. I ordered a large and the fit is near perfect.UPDATE #2: I’ve worn this vest for a great variety of activities including fishing and working around the yard and shed. I’m happy to say it’s held up to all the use I’ve put it through and get this, I found hidden pockets. My original ten pocket count was inaccurate. There are a few more than ten. Fifteen maybe. Anyway, love this vest and will be ordering one for every guy in my family. Christmas shopping.DONE!

Pros
  • Lightweight and breathable fabric, anti-pilling and not easy to shrink. With consistent and neat stitching. Keep flat even without ironing.
Cons
  • The pockets may be located in inconvenient areas
