Review on ROCK BROS Reflective Sleeveless Running Vest for Men and Women - Breathable Cycling and Safety Gear by Jennings Ford

So bought it, tried it on, didn't like it and it's back. Works well if you have a backpack. It has such a wide reflective surface on the lower body that I thought it might solve the problem. Regarding fit: I'm a 5'10" male, 183 lbs, athletic build. Shoulder is 18", chest is just over 41". Waist is 32". I ordered 3XL/US-XL. This is a size larger than recommended but the comments warn it may be necessary for armholes. I found this size to be relatively fitting, but bulkier than I actually wanted - I really needed it to be a size down. However, the armholes are such that downsizing would likely narrow them too much. Nonetheless I'm coming back for four reasons: 1- the fit isn't quite right and I'm not sure if changing the size will solve this issue due to the armhole issue mentioned above 2- armholes have an elastic hem that the I find uncomfortable. I usually wear sleeveless shirts or compression t-shirts and since they are stretchy the armhole hem is quite stiff and heavy. Not sure the logic behind this design but maybe it's for cycling jackets and the like to keep the tunic in place as I wear sleeveless shirts and compression t-shirts Running/hiking time is for me not very suitable.3 - It is not breathable like many other models. Again, if you don't need ventilation as a key feature then that's no problem, but for me the reflective part - despite the 1mm perforation - contains too much moisture and heat. 4 - It is too heavy compared to other designs. I was hoping to get something on par with a standard running vest, but the amount of reflective material means it's heavier than it otherwise could be. No idea for storing in a hiking bag. So I don't like it. But for a general life jacket on a walk or in an emergency when working on a car I think it might fit.
