Title: Predator Camo Vest - Reviews?
Post by: J. Cook on October 10, 2013, 07:54:00 AM
I'm really considering buying the Predator Camo fleece vest, but I wanted to hear some reviews from those of you who have tried it.  I'd really like to hear some review on size -- is it true to fit, runs big, etc?  Quality?  

Let me know what you experience has been with it.

Thanks!

i think it runs a little big. i bought one last year, and i usually wear a 2X in most things, so i got one. it's a little loose and bulky for my liking. i did try it, on, but it was a closeout and was the last one they had, and the price was unbeatable.

that said, it is well-made and has an interesting waist-cinch feature that will certainly keep the wind out. this part is also removable by unzipping if you don't need it or prefer not to have it.

the pattern i have is the green, and of course that's awesome. i would say be conservative on the sizing, and go for it.

edit - i just looked on their website, and their sizes are clearly listed. i could have gotten by with the XL as listed. so, i guess they are pretty true-to-size after all.

I'm interested in the vest too,,, how big do they run,, an entire size big or big enough for a thick sweater under it?

Just a little, thick sweater is perfect under them. If you are right on the border of a size split go with the smaller size. Also they are only available in Fall Grey and Brown Deception anymore.

The vest is my favorite piece of gear, soft, silent, lots of pockets, not too bulky and the quality is great.
