Super Slim Air Flow Weighted Vest 4lbs - 32lbs Workout Vest for Men and Women. Solid Iron Weights. Machine Washable.

Update: I have now had this vest since September of last year and it’s held up like new. I have been using it 7 days a week for HIIT and it is the best thing that has ever happened. bought this vest a few months ago and wanted to put it through some workouts before reviewing. this vest has held up marvelously to about 3 HIIT sessions per week and some middle-distance runs. material is heavyweight, zipper also seems robust and it doesn't really interfere with burpees, pushups, running (sprints or endurance pace). Can be worn with or without a shirt underneath without chaffing. Also doesn't lean one way or the other or choke you out (was using a ballisitc rated plate/bullet proof vest). Only 2 concerns, i got the 12lb vest and tried to contact MIR about buying new weights but got zero response (via email). And my training partner (who is meaningfully larger than I am) bought a heavier vest but the zipper there broke. Good news is customer service did work with him to get him a new vest eventually.

I really like this vest, but the zipper can be a pain. If I don't have the zipper firmly seated and lined up just right, it won't zip up. When unzipping, after getting the zipper all the way back down, if I don't have it lined up just right again and have the tension just right, it won't release. A zipper really shouldn't be this fussy to deal with, and I'm concerned about the durability. Other than that, the rest of the vest is terrific. The customizable fit works well and I can snug it down so it doesn't move around when exercising and doesn't place all of the weight on top of my shoulders. No problem with the weight pockets being on the inside of the vest. I wear it over a t-shirt and find it to be very comfortable. I'm 5'8" and the torso length is good for me. I can do squats without the bottom of the vest hitting against my hip bones and getting pushed up. I tried a different brand of slim fit vest that is very popular and much more expensive, but the recommended size for me was much longer in the torso and I had the problem with the vest being pushed up when doing squats. I have a 38 chest and 32 waist, and this vest fits fine with a few inches to spare. However, mine also came with an extra set of six velcro straps that could be used to add 10 inches or so to the adjustment straps on on each side of the vest (so, about 20 additional inches total) to accommodate larger sizes. The weights fit snugly in each pocket, so they don't slide around during vigorous movements. But they're easy enough to insert and remove when needed. I really like that the vest is machine washable after removing the weights, though I haven't tried that yet. Overall, this is a fine vest, but the zipper really needs improvement.

I tested several weighted vests before purchasing the 32lb version of this vest. This vest is much more secure and comfortable than the sand, plate, and bar versions I have tried. I use it for walking, running, and body weight workouts. I'm 6ft, 200lbs, and it fits me great. It's supposed to be snug; it's a “slim” vest. The only improvement that I recommend is more padding on the shoulders, but it is no worse than the others I've used.

Great vest for a 10 year old. To small to use the velcro straps! Only covers my chest and I am not a huge guy. Product pics are very deceptive, those models must be elves or fairies! Update. After 3 days of trying to wear this p.o.s. it's going back. The zipper isn't strong enough to hold it together and at $10.00 per 3lbs of weights I'd think they could put a bit more quality in this thing. Do not buy!

I would give 4.5 if possible. Fit is perfect. I am only 5' 8". Zipper is the weakest part, but it hasn't failed while in use. It only seems to be touchy when starting to zip. Make sure you zip it up properly.

I want to love this vest. It's a tight, secure fit which is what I was looking for. It's lightweight and holds a decent amount of weights that are easy and quick to change. However, it rubs when doing arm pull exercises like pull ups. For that reason, I'm only giving it 3 stars.

Fabric is great. Vest built very sturdy and weights are slim. Likely would have been great. I returned it. Beware of the size. Description said up to XL. I wear L shirts and this vest is nowhere near big enough to wear unless you have a small chest.

I would give this a 5 star rating for comfort, evenly distributed weight and it does not weigh heavy on the shoulders. But, the zipper broke the first time I put it on. Waiting for reply from seller to have it replaced.
