I have a safety vest I wear for my crossing guard duty, but it is a velcro closure that is quickly fraying and rarely stays secured after only a few months of use. When I saw this vest, I knew I would like it because of the zipper option instead of velcro.
This safety vest comes simply packaged, ready to go straight from the package. ANSI and ISEA approved, it is ready for most jobs.
It also included two reflective elastic armbands for added visibility.
The arm bands are stretchy enough to slide onto my arm, even over my winter coat, without the need to un-fasten them. But, if it is desired, they simply velcro together and can be adjusted easily.
The vests come sized. I chose a medium. I was a little nervous to get the small size because I know that most often I wear it over a coat of some type, but other reviews and measurements from the seller led me to believe it would be just fine. It is. I have plenty of room in this vest to wear it with my winter coat, but I do not swim in it if I am only wearing a t-shirt.
The vest zips closed easily and quickly. All ends are secured and of high quality. The vest is trimmed in a black mesh to keep the vest material from fraying. An added bonus is that the vest is washable.
Stripes on the vest, which go around the torso at two different heights as well as over the shoulders, are very reflective and and visibility in addition to the super bright yellow.
I am very pleased with this vest, much more so than my velcro closure vest. It fits well, is breathable, highly visible, lightweight and convenient to use.
I have plenty of room to play around with for varied seasons and am glad I chose to stick with measurement indications instead of playing it safe and going up a size.
