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

I bought this vest in Navy and Olive Green. I like the colors and they are true to the photos. As a woman I was not sure what size to order. I wear a large shirt and extra large outer top if it is going over a shirt. These are made for men and from the experience with my Weekend Traveler vest, I ordered a medium. The medium is plenty big around the chest but a tight fit over my womanly hips if I want to zip it. Since I don't zip my vests, it will be fine. I use vests for birding. I don't like to leave anything in the car and so want to be able to carry all my necessities in the vest. These have plenty of pockets but I am rather disappointed with the design of the pockets. There is no pocket of appropriate size for sunglasses and/or reading glasses. There is no designated extra protected pocket for my smart phone. This can be tricky with the various sizes of phones but I will have to use one of the other pockets. I like that there is a lot of mesh (it is double meshed (two layers) so I am hoping it will not be too hot in warm weather. Most of the pockets will be useless for me but I can probably make the few good ones work ok. There are no side pockets for hands. That was an unpleasant surprise as that is where I usually plop my car keys for easy access and means I will have to put them along with other stuff in one of the front pockets. However, many of the more expensive vests usable for birding only come in one color - beige. Although I have no hope of looking like anything except a nerdy birder I don't like to wear beige with my gray pants - that is just too nerdy so the option of many colors in this vest is the biggest plus for me.
