Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

I received excellent customer service, the company backs their products. I would heartily recommend this pack to anyone looking to purchase a pack that gives them maximum performance per dollar.

Fishing vest and backpack combo is very comfortable. The tether on the strap is kinda dinky but hey, this pack is super cheap. Not the most comfortable shoulder strap but again, significantly cheaper than top line packs.

The front zipper pull is on the left side, but not a deal breaker. Pockets are usefully locates and thoughtfully placed.



Cons

It's not even big enough to hold a 12oz disposable bottle, let alone a nalgene. There is no where on the front strap to securely fasten both forceps and nippers. The hip strap is basically useless and placed at the wrong height.

Quality


Zippers have held up so far after first season pockets are usefully locates and thoughtfully placed


It’s lightweight and breathable and made of durable material


During the 1 week it was in use it suffered a seam that tore out


One of the orange ties popped off right away on first use

Price


This is so awesome for the price


For the price it gets you on the water with comfort style and lots of saceroom


So i wasnt up for spending 100 for a pack that might not get used that often


The cost over that of those with famous names on them is a huge benefit so if youre new to hooking them get this before going big

Shipping


I received excellent customer service the company backs their products


The company was quick to help and sent a whole new chest and backpack at no additional cost


They promptly sent out a replacement vestpack even delivering to nz at no extra cost

Packaging/appearance


The pack is roomy enough to fit a lightweight jacket two fly boxes and all of my associated accessories indicators split shot f...  Read More


Also this was obviously a returned vest as it has an unopened package of tissues in one pocket plus several safety pins non the straps


I packed a assortment of spin and fly boxes within it for a 5 mile hike along a stream fishing for steelhead


But it showed no signs of wear and came in the original package so this was just an oversight

Competitiveness


I see similar vests at bass pro and cabelas going for 300 or more and this is just as good


He says it is a million times better than his old vest and his old vest cost more money


Don’t pay for the higher brand name ones


Quality is okay but not as high quality as major brands

    The back pack can be folded and strapped down so you do not know it is there when you just want a fishing vest

    The shoulders and back of the vest are padded for comfort
