Reflective Running Vest for Women & Men,High Visibility Reflector Vest with 2 Bands,Lightweight & Comfy Running Gear

Once fall arrives and it gets dark early, the dogs still want to go for a walk. If you live in a dark part of the suburbs like us with very few street lights, you need some sort of protection from speeding cars. These vests help make us noticeable to passing vehicles. You can definitely spot us from the front and the behind.We also utilize headlamps and blinking clip on devices, and with this vest, makes us more noticeable and less apt to be hit.Maybe one day they will make dog sizes/They are pretty comfortable and fit under most jackets and sweatshirts. We purchased them for our entire family of 5.

This vest does just what I wanted it to do, make me visible to cars when I’m walking outside in low light. It appears reasonably sturdy, and comfortable. My arms and neck, and legs are free of any binding and its full of ventilation holes. Its not cold enough outside for me to try under a bulking jacket yet, but it looks like it should still fit as the side velco straps are a good length for adjustment. It warns that the reflective strips may eventually dim after many washings. Its still very clean and looks to be very easy to gently hand wash, as I would do if it ever needed it.

I purchased this to fit over outerwear when bike riding/ commuting to work. It has the coverage I want and need out in traffic. It can be a little awkward when putting it on as sometimes the waist straps can get twisted. I okay with this because it’s so little and it was inexpensive. When wearing it over outerwear you’ll note that the hook faces out from the vest and if it’s not covered by the pile (fuzzy side of the Velcro) on the rear strap the hook side tends to catch on other fabrics. Again I’m okay with this because I wanted something I could wear with or without a coat. I have a couple of white pile tabs I made to cover the exposed Velcro hook material. The bands are great for protecting my pants leg while riding, but I decided to shorten these so that they’re snug on my wrist. Material has held up well over the last 400 miles and shows no sign of wear. Will most likely purchase another set so I don’t find my self short of my critical riding gear. I say critical because 95% of the cyclist on my commute don’t wear any kind of protective or reflective gear.I see that a few drivers don’t see me when I’m on my bike even with this on; what are they seeing when they see (don’t see) people without. I’ll admit to briefly losing sight of a pedestrian in the A pilar of my truck while approaching an intersection. This is how I know it’s critical gear. Be seen…..
