I ordered the 12lb vest, and I love it. It is not too heavy, and it works great for indoor and outdoor use. Will definitely have to purchase a heavier one once this one starts feeling too light. It is very comfortable too; it does not dig into my arms and fits well. The material is of good quality, and the beads stay inside the product.

Love this weighted vest. I have the 16lb. It will definitely take some getting used to but so far it's been great to wear on my walks. I have a large chest and was worried about it fitting probably but it's actually more comfortable than I thought and the adjustable straps help achieve the perfect fit. It's nice and durable and I like the black color. I have friends that have been wearing there's for months and have seen great results from their workouts so I'm hoping it'll be just as effective with me!

I bought the 12 lb vest. It’s perfect! I have only had it today. However, I wore it on my 1 mile dog walk and I also kept it on while I did chores around the house. You can definitely feel the weight but it’s not too much. It’s very comfortable to wear, it’s cushioned on the shoulders, and comes with additional shoulder cushions. My son is also considering purchasing one for his workouts. I didn’t feel like my movement was restricted, it feels like it’s good quality, and I really felt the effectiveness during my work out

This is amazing , the weight feels good on the shoulders, easily adjustable. The quality of fabric is good and the straps fit well across the shoulders.

Great vest. Fits perfectly and this is a god weight. I wish I would have ordered a size up but this is a hod starting size. Best is comfortable to wear and does its on.

16 lbs is truly a good starting point. I am a 56yr female: 5’7” and 160 lbs. Although after a few months, I may bump it up to a heftier weight. My Dr wanted me to wear it around the house while doing chores (let’s add in I maintain my pool and mow (not a ride-on) 1/3 acre and do all the yard maintenance, along with cleaning the house. I don’t hire people. Either way: lots of squatting, easy to get 9,000 steps of daily walking while wearing it. I just had a full physical with a bmi measurement. I’m in the process of losing weight. This has helped me build more muscle than fat. This is a bonus of wearing a weighted vest while walking, doing chores, climbing stairs, etc. I would never wear while driving. Ha! Some people. I did not notice any chemical smell from the vest even from day 1. 16-lbs is relatively easy for me to get on although that was a hefty box initially at the front door. I believe the vest weight is evenly distributed front to back. If I had to complain, I wish the straps were 1+ more or perhaps 1 smaller strap in addition to the other straps. I have the straps cinched all the way for a better fit for me and yet it feels a bit big. Some might say, it should fit the way it does and yet it does not slip around. It’s comfortable enough to wear while getting chores done, therefore if you are walking 2-4 miles, it should be comfortable enough. My firefighter wears a 60lb vest to walk to the gym or walk 5 miles to add further perspective. I will most likely bump the weight up to a 25lb next. If you are just starting out, buy the 16 lbs. I know it will feel heavy at first, but that will quickly be nothing.

Super investment in your workout and health! I have used this vest while on my treadmill and it is great! I feel like it truly helps my posture and strengthens my bones. Great addition to my workout routine. If you are interested- give it a try- you won't be sorry! Comfortable and well made!

I've just started using my vest; it's only been a week so far. I love that it comes with the detachable holder. It's very convenient for my phone. At first glance, it didn't look like my phone would fit, but it actually fit pretty nicely. I have a Samsung S22 Ultra. My husband has an Apple 16 Max Pro, and his also fits. We both have cases of different sizes, still no problem. I bought two different weights: the 12 and the 16 lb. I didn't realize how heavy that actually would be. They are sturdy and seem to be evenly distributed in weight. I've never worn a weighted vest before, so I didn't know what to expect. I was able to do my usual three-plus miles, but it was a major challenge, lol! I didn't even attempt to run. I only walk with it on. My husband and I are two different body weights and heights, with him being 6'3", probably 300 lbs, and myself 5'6", 190 lbs with DD breasts. The straps went across both our body types easily. I would buy again. I would start off with a lower weight, like the 6 lb, if a beginner. I'm pushing myself at 12. I may get the 6 now that I know better. It's too soon to see any difference or improvement in my body.

Love my new vest, feels very heavy but once it’s on you soon het used to it and it doesn’t dig in to your shoulders, definitely helps with posture. Was a bit gutted initially that it’s sand & not adjustable but 3 seconds after wearing it got over that, it moulds to you which is better

Comfy and robust

I purchased the 12lb vest! It fits really well, I am a large for size. It seems to be really well made. The pouch is ha dy for little things. I would suggest

Comfortable doesn’t feel like 10kg weight

Every now and again I buy something and feel the need to write an instant review 🤣 I’m training for a Hyrox event and came across an article recommended running with a weighted vest. After researched quite abit I got down to three on Amazon and plumped for this one. It came today and I went for two runs with it this evening, to the gym and back. Pro’s 1. Easy to set up, literally ready to go out of the Box 2. With the straps tightened it felt an extension of me when running. It fitted snugly around me and didn’t feel like it was bouncing with even weight spread (I’m 5’7”, 72kg) 3. Plenty of room for my arms to swing 4. A lot of similar products have reviews talking about a strong smell, there was none with this 5. Research the weight. There is a good guide above, I went for 12lbs (5.4Kg) which is c.7.5% of my body weight. It felt comfortable. 6. It felt comfy on the shoulders - I fitted the shoulder pads Cons 1. The phone pocket kept hitting me in the face. However it can be removed, or moved elsewhere which I will probably do for my Next run 2. It would be good to have a pocket for a small water bottle or gels on the front Overall delighted with the purchase and can see it really helping my training.
