Fantastic tool for my Z2 training days! 3-4 days week for active recovery days with 27lbs on a 50-60 min brisk walk gets the job done. I have only used the vest with a shirt on. Not sure how comfortable it might be shirtless. Will try that soon.

Easy on/off zip up comfortable, rugged. Shipment of 45 lb vest via Amazon was missing two 3-lb weights. MIR mailed them on requested follow-up.

I shopped around for a while looking for the right weighted vest and this one definitely hits the mark. I'm 6' and 220 LBS with what I'd say is a thicker than average frame the vest fits excellent with room to spare if Ineeded. It tightens down great and fits snug against your body. I also like how you can disperse the weights on the front and back to even the load.

One note on the seller, the vest did arrive with some slight damage which was clearly from shipping. I contacted miR they sent the replacement immediately, HIGHLY recommend them if they carry what you need.

The Mir weighted vest is a solid piece of equipment to add to your workout gear. I have the 90lbs vest which allows me to configure the weight load from 3lbs to 90lbs. I mainly use this weighted vest with my walks/runs, leg exercises, pushups and sit-ups. Some times I will leave the vest on through out the whole workout. The vest has held up really well and is washable. I hand wash the vest because I feel that it is hard on the washer. The weights are easily added and removed from the vest.

Did a bit of research for a weighted vest to replace using my pack for western hunting training. The vest is well made, durable. It is expensive, but when you are expecting something to hold 70+ pounds, it needs to have the ability to sustain the stress long-term; and this does. I would recommend the straps over the zipper style because I don't see any zipper technology being able to hold the demands required in the long-term.

Definitely the way to go for anyone looking to add weight to their workouts or daily activities. I'll put this on for a treadmill run/walk, snowshoeing/hiking, playing with the kids in the yard, shoveling the driveway, etc. The weights are easy to add and remove. it fits tight to the body, no excess movement, so fitting it under a jacket is no problem. I bought the 75lbs capacity so I have the versatility to adjust the weight accordingly for any type of workout.
