A dog training vest praised for its abundant pockets and overall quality. Customers said it has "loads of pockets especially the one at back" and is "ready for summer." Most found sizing accurate, though one customer noted it ran "a bit tight" despite following the sizing guide. Available up to 3XL, some wished for larger sizes.
Excellent vest, loads of pockets especially the one at back!
Nice training vest ready for summer, good fit
Good fit. True to sizing. Many well located pockets for training items and hands.

A definite Summer addition for training.
This is more lightweight than expected. It will be good for use in the warmer months for sure.
I bought my normal size 12, it is very roomy on the upper body.
I did find I had to undo the zip a bit from the bottom upwards, when I carried game in the big back pocket. For bending down etc it is a little snug at that point but with lots of room everywhere else.

Overall good quality
What I like most about this vest is the depth of the rear pocket, its expandable so makes adding and removing dummies really easy, I also like the magnets on the front pockets. Lovely mesh back so keeps you cool. If I could offer just one improvement it would be the length and how this affects the product. If you have dummies in the back pocket and are bending over to pick things up the vest catches on your backside so restricts your movement. It could be easily fixed by doing something with the sides so the front and back can lift as you bend. Because the sides are solid and the same size as the front and back there is no give.

Narrow fitting, but a cool vest for working with dogs
Great vest for working with dogs, with useful pockets all over the place! I love the mesh finishing as it permits comfortable wear when the weather is warmer.
The only thing I’d question is the sizing, as the vest is very close fitting on me despite it being my ‘usual’ size and other clothing of the same size still fitting me well.
Overall though, would recommend.

nice vest but a bit tight
A very nice vest in blue but i could have sworn i had ordered the green one. but now it here its a nice blue. used the sizing guide from inputting my chest size, find it a tight fit ( can do zip up) feel i should have got a 4XL but only goes up to 3XL. Love the pockets.

Slightly disappointed
It looks nice, the shape is very square.
Feels like nice material.
Ordered a size bigger than my normal one and absolutely zero chance of me ever being able to zip it up unless I have my hips surgically removed.
Slightly disappointed but will still just wear it unzipped.
Thanks for leaving your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the fit of our New Forest Dog Training Vest II wasn't right for you. The men's version that you bought is cut straighter through the hips, so if this was purchased for a lady, we recommend trying the ladies' fit for a more comfortable and zippable option. We appreciate your support and hope you'll give our product another try.
Thanks,
Customer Service at [Company Name]

A good fit with all the pockets you could ever need, without looking over the top. Fits me nicely even over a thin fleece, but as summer is round the corner (allegedly) the vented design will be a refreshing wear

Picking up vest.
I ordered a large, I'm a 42 inch chest and it fits perfectly.
Lots of pockets in the right places!
Chest pockets for items like car keys.
Hand warmer pockets.
Large pockets for items like leads or shotgun cartridges.
Two little pockets at the rear for use for water bottles or gundog dummies.
Large pocket at the rear to carry shot game.
Elastic cords at the waist and hip to adjust the fit.
I get warm when beating or picking up so the mesh rear to the vest is a real plus point.
I think it could also be used as a skeet vest!
Overall very impressive product at a reasonable price.
