Review on Portzon Adjustable Weighted Vest by Solomon Inks

Thanks to knee issues my running days are over. I can still use this weighted vest to help with my strength training, light work out sessions, walking, hiking and even when doing yard work. I can really work up a sweat.I also like that the weight distribution is even front to back Vs wearing a heavy backpack. (although can still add one for even more dead weight to carry up the hill)When this vest arrived the weights has worked loose & were all over the box. The vest is kind of a neoprene material. There is some stretch to the pockets which is a good thing. You really need to push down on the weights & then pull the top cover over. I ended up using a butter knife to lift the top cover over the weight. My vest came with 2 extra weights. When fully loaded this is a 20lb vest.If you are someone that likes to vary the weight of the vest, you may find this one frustrating or don't cover the tops. I had a Golds Gym one that used lots of Velcro pockets and changing weights was much easier on that one.I have not had any issues with the front zipper. The 4 wide Velcro straps seem to hold well. I normally wear a shirt under this. I am able to wear my hoodie over this & I don't think you can't tell I am wearing this, only look a bit more bulky.On about my 1st month with this & so far so good & am really liking this weighted vest.
