2-45lb Adjustable Weighted Vest w/Silicone Weights,Running Rucking Vest Men | Machine Washable,Zippered,Slim Fit, Removable Reflective Strips, Strength Training Vest for Walking Hiking Workout Gym Home

I've been using this weighted vest for a few months now, and I'm really impressed. It's incredibly comfortable, even during long workouts or walks. The zipper makes it very easy to put on and take off, and the weight distribution feels perfectly balanced. The silicone weights stay in place, and the reflective strips are a great safety feature for evening runs. This vest is well-made and absolutely worth the price. It's fully adjustable, feels secure, and has taken my workouts to a new level. Highly recommended!

I don't typically leave reviews, but this is by far one of the best quality items in its category. Other weighted vests that uses iron sand or something similar is always bulky and uncomfortable, and the weight shifts and gets unbalanced. This vest is super comfortable and conforms to the body really well, and it doesn't itch. It's a bit pricey but if you plan on using it long term it's definitely worth the money. Very easy put on and take off and easy to adjust. I would be curious to see if the 45-lb version is just as comfortable and form-fitting.

So I researched weight vests a TON and had it down to the TRX vest and this one. I took a chance on this vest when it first came out, and I'm super happy that I did!!! I was looking for a vest that was comfortable and had adjustable weights, and I really think this vest is the best out there for those two elements - it is definitely worth the extra cash over the cheaper vests. I primarily use the vest for dog walking - we got a Doodle during Covid, and the 45 minute daily walk I take with him replaced my daily workout :( so I was trying to burn some more calories on the walk. This vest allows me to do that perfectly! The weight adjustability was awesome - I started with 20 lbs and worked my way up to 33 over a few weeks. I also will wear this vest when doing stuff around the house - mowing the lawn, cleaning the house on Saturday morning, etc... I love how it allows me to sneak in a light workout when I'm super busy. One of the best features of the vest is the silicone weights - pretty much all other weight vests either use iron or sand. These silicone weights are super thin and flexible, which allows me to layer the vest comfortably under my jacket. After a few minutes, I actually forget that I'm wearing it. Also, when my jacket is zipped, you can't even tell I'm wearing it, which I love! I also like that when I don't wear it with a jacket, it doesn't look tactical - a lot of the other weight vests make the wearers look like they're law enforcement or military, and this one just looks...pretty normal. I also like the fact that the weights are distributed across the entire torso, rather than bunching up around the neck/shoulder area, like so many others. I'm 6'2 / 185, and the vest fits me perfectly. I've also used the vest for light jogging and for HIIT training sessions. Again, it's really comfy (for a weight vest), and I've been super happy at how it's worked for all those things. My only recommendations would to maybe make the shoulder straps more robust - I haven't had any issues with mine over the past three months, but I'm interested to see how they'll hold up over time. The velcro flaps that hold each weight in each pouch also seem a bit thin, but again, I haven't actually had any issues with them either, but if they put out a 2.0 version, I would recommend making those two changes. Everything else is pretty much perfect! If you're a hard-core athlete, and have the extra cash, I'd also take a look at the TRX vest, but if you're someone who just wants to occasionally use a vest to help stay in shape, and prioritize comfort, I think this vest is a huge step up from the sand/iron vests, and is definitely worth the extra investment!

Very good vest, removable weights easy to adjust and nice and flat to the body. This is definitely a vest made for a man (not sure why they don’t offer this in a woman’s version with a more narrow shoulder cut) but as a 5’7” 150lb woman I am still able to use it and cinch the sides tight. With all the weights there is definitely plenty of room for moving up the lbs as you get stronger. And actually the husband can use it also if he wants. Was having a hard time finding a vest that reviewers said didn’t have a strong chemical smell, this vest met that requirement, no smell at all. Overall I’m pleased.

Review of the 2-35 version (probably they are the same, just different weights). This is a nice product, I'd give it a 5 stars but have some improvements and things I wish I knew, below. Based on other vests I've tried, this one is good though and I think the final keeper for me. The pockets have an extra top-flap which holds them in better in case you're jumping or running, which is cool. First, I'm small/skinny (5-8 and 145lbs), and I have to make this the tightest it can get for it to fit snug on me. So if you are thin, just take note of that. I think that they should advertise a chest and waste measurement minimum for clarity. I actually wish it could get even tighter - which is a bummer, but for my current size it does the job and I'm hoping to gain weight (muscle) not lose it! Second, the zipper is left-handed. I know it's a nit-pick, but it's not advertised like this once again, and I wish it was right handed for my sanity! =) Third, it would be nice to have the weights labeled, or even "zone labeled." The weights are not all identical, some are for the back and more squared off, where some are for the front and have slants to them. There is also a small patch on all of them that I assume must be to help keep them situated in the pockets (maybe they don't have a use?) - but it's nice to know exactly what you're picking and putting in the right pocket (grab a Type A or grab a Type B, this is FRONT, this is BACK, etc.). Small thing that can make it better for the future. Last thing I'd say is that this one looks a bit less "tactical" than stuff like go ruck or other sellers. I prefer that, I don't want my neighbors seeing me walking my dog with this and thinking I have a bullet proof vest on. I think this will slip nicely under a winter coat too.

I think I made the right choice! I just got it today, but it looks pretty decently made. The weights are nice and soft, the vest is overall comfortable to wear and I can even wear it under a sweater and it's not that noticeable. I was excited to try so I wore it right away, but maybe wash the fabric first. After I sweated a bit I could smell some chemical. But it didn't last too long after I took off the vest. The vest fits very snug, I am able to do a handstand in it and it doesn't budge. I will be using it often and will come back to this review to change it if something happens. It's very adjustable so even if I was bigger I wouldn't have to worry about how it fits.

This is extremely comfortable to wear. The materials are soft but durable, and because the "weights" are also soft, everything is comfortable and not clunky. The actual gel 'weights' are a little finicky to get in and out, but no big deal, and they're secure once in. Also very important is that the vest stays comfortable even when some of the weights are removed...it doesn't make any 'funky' pressure points or anything. Two things I was initially concerned about were the zipper closure and the shoulder strap comfort. My wife has a cheaper vest that has a quick release buckle closure that I thought I would prefer over the zipper used on this model, but now that I'm using the zipper, I like it more than the buckle. As for the shoulder straps, they sat a bit uncomfortably right out of the box, and that worried me! However, like breaking in a new pair of shoes, the straps settled in very quickly and are now super comfortable. Also, there are four side adjustment straps that allow you to snug things up 'just so'! I often snug them up extra tightly in order to bear the weight around my torso and almost completely free up my shoulders.... it's a nice option. Negatives? There's not much negative about this weighted vest. About the only annoyance is that sometimes, because of its overall length, the lower edge can push on my belt if I'm wearing one, but it's not a big deal. I like this vest so much, I'll be gifting one to my seriously-in-need-of-extra-muscle-mass brother!

I do not have much to compared to, but for my first rucking vest, I feel pretty good about it. The design makes it snug enough to be worn under a baggy sweater, and being able to tighten and loosen the sides helps a lot of well in terms of comfort. The shoulder padding are also comfortable for an extended amount of time. All in all a pretty good rucking vest for beginners but be aware that the full weight is really heavy if you never used a rucking vest before. Maybe start with half the weights. TL;DR: Pros: - Cost effective - Easier to handle since it's not metal plates used for weights - Comfortable and desgined to fit Cons: - Full weight for extended amount of time will cause soreness if not muscles are not conditioned

Great vest for the price point. Comfortable to wear and adjustment straps hold very well and are "quick release" when removing the vest. Works well during workouts while doing squats, lunges, treadmill or push ups etc. Quality looks solid. Stitching looks strong and the zipper is heavy duty. The neoprene absorbs sweat quickly so you'll need to dry it thoroughly after use and remove all the weights for the occasional vest wash.

This is a comfortable best to wear, the silicon weights make it easier to remove or keep and adds to comfort. The only thing missing on mine was the labels for the weights as shown in the video which is a little frustrating.
