@@NoFate247 that I could consider, I just dread getting hassled if even Hawaiian print isn’t enough. Keep up the great work, I enjoy your channel very much.
@@scarredface2684 yep. I ordered 2 vests 2 days ago and still hasn't shipped and no word from company. Really regretting not getting Rogue's made in USA weight vest and plates.
Pretty sure go ruck, crye, any gov surplus store selling old plate carriers etc. I personally have a crye and love it but like I said, it’s actually rated for ballistics etc and is what I use at work
@@NoFate247 out of all of them you've tried, do you know which vest has the widest neck or which ever is adjustable enough to fit an 8" neck? The rogue, mir and north look promising.
Nice review just in time for the Murph. $120 seems like a good deal. I don't know how some of the other companies charge like $200+ when they are all made in the same factories 🤷🏻♂️
@NoFate247 just an update how it compares to the others in their lineup. I think it holds less weight. I picked it because I didn't want velcro. Great work BTW.
@NoFate247 40 is perfect, their website says 14.5x2 plates for the quick release version, and 19.75x2 plates for the other vests. Thanks for the responses, subbing. Take care.
I went Amazon cheap on the vest ($35) just getting into this. Doing limited distance with the ~20# plate pair. How comfortable (shoulder padding) are the WT vest with heavy??
@@NoFate247 Having run over 100 ultras i'm aware of shoulder strain. Ultra vests are not know for shoulder padding. I almost bought the WT vest last night but thought I should chill and research a bit more. I've built up the shoulder pads on my cheap Amazon vest (still trying to improve it). Thanks for your reviews !!

That's fair. I have a Hawaiian blue print one I tend to wear in public places. (Thank you so much for your service)

@@Grumpyoldman666 I've seen patches that say training vest in big bold letters, but some people are but hurt over anything
Nothing on their website says made in the USA. I highly doubt the products are made in the USA.
@@douglowry7382 they aren't and I never said they were. Very few vests out plates made in USA.
Made in Chy-nah

Ok how easy are they to clean?
Not bad, you don't have to clean them too often especially if you wear a tshirt
Perfect timing I am currently in the market for a weight vest! Thank you!
Thanks for checking in!!! Any big memorial day plans

Damn those pads on that training vest look thick! How much space is between them? Looks like only 5 inches.
5.5
@@NoFate247 damn wth, that's too small for me

@@MattHuarez-yh9zj Wolf Tactical their origonal one has the biggest opening
@@NoFate247 awesome! And are any of them machine washable? Or at least hand washable? Don't know if spandex cummerbunds can be machine washed.
To options for those looking for an affordable import option. I'm blessed to just have a few from work I can use
Do you know of any made here in America? I couldn't find any
Nice review just in time for the Murph. $120 seems like a good deal. I don't know how some of the other companies charge like $200+ when they are all made in the same factories 🤷🏻♂️
Yeah unfortunately they are all made in the same or similar factories but some have better marketing and sell a bit more hype imo
I’m 6’4 300 pounds ! Which vest is best for everyday use? Appreciate if you can help me on this
North gym because they have a double buckle for big dudes
How is the trainer weighted vest? Can I run with it? My height is 5’9 I weight 140 I have an athletic slim build you think it will suite me?
It'll fit and you can run with it but not as comfortable or nice as the higher end versions. How often will you use it
I started fast walking two months ago and I'm doing 12k-15k a day. Are these weighted vest good for walking??
WOw that's a great amoubnt. You can def. walk in these, but I'd probably air on the side of lighter over heavier
@@NoFate247 thank you for the response. Is 15-20 lbs okay?
@@ItsJustWavy that's def. heavy enough
Which would you recommend between the Simple Weighted Vest and the Quick Release Weighted Vest for durability and fit?
Go with the simple weighted vest
Thank you for the fast reply!
Cant get your discount code to work
@@rileydryer7929 looks like they took it down. Use the link and check the Amazon price today
Call me Little Red Riding Hood, never heard of Wolf...their weighted vests looks like a great price to quality option!
Yeah their price to performance ratio is through the roof
You're
everything
that a big, bad, wolf would want.
@@squealer42 HECK YEA!
You went all out and got all the vests. Nice. I really like wolf tactical curved plates. I want to get another heavier set. I have the 8.75 set.
How you liking the 8.75 lb set
@@NoFate247 I enjoy it. Add that extra suck to the workout.
This guy knows weight vests
Thanks for checking in!!! What are the big weekend plans?
Too bad they don't have a retailer in Canada
You can't order from Amazon? Or too expensive to ship
Good video, I just purchased the Wolf Tactical Quick Release Plate Carrier that you reviewed a year ago, was hoping for an update on this video.
Ohhh you wanted an updated product review or you wanted them to update their product to A new version
@NoFate247 just an update how it compares to the others in their lineup. I think it holds less weight. I picked it because I didn't want velcro. Great work BTW.
@iwmaxx I think you can still get in two plates front and back so that's a 40 lb vest. Not sure how heavy you need it 😂
@NoFate247 40 is perfect, their website says 14.5x2 plates for the quick release version, and 19.75x2 plates for the other vests. Thanks for the responses, subbing. Take care.
Yiuh buddy wanting this vid 👍
Nice thanks for watching
I’m liking the weighted back pack. Great video
Nice!!! How heavy have you gotten it up to?
No I was just checking out vests and like the back pack the most.
@@rigo.garcia It's great for walks/hiking
Top review🎉
Appreciate you watching and subscribing 👍🏼
Great video
Thanks for watching. Have a great memorial day
