Thinking of getting a vest just wondering which one. Thinking about snowpulse, north face and wary. What do you guys think??
Vest???

Well, at the risk of sounding too political, since the North Face is one of the top contributors of money used to help close riding areas and the Wary vest is awesome, I'd not choose the North Face!!
The snowpulse vest is AWESOME and has plenty of room for storage and also has great chest protection.
The Wary vest is very sleek and very comfortable, not quite as much storage and the chest protection isn't quite as good as the Snowpulse vest.
The North Face vest is also very comfortable, but is the most expensive and doesn't have the chest protection option.
My choice:
1) SnowPulse Highmark Vest with Armor
2) Wary Vest
3) North Face Vest

Yeah, leaning towards the wary vest. I don't need all of the space because I have a tunnel bag also. Thanks for the insight.

Ridden with the original Wary impact avi vest for 2 seasons and I like it - distributes the weight well, fairly comfortable, and has built in chest protection.
There are 2 things I don't like about it. The first is where to position my beacon under the vest. I've started wearing it low and on my side but that prevents me from wearing the vest snug on that side. Also, throughout the day the velcro on the sides comes undone and back part slides down as the straps do not keep it from moving. I'm not sure if these issues have been addressed with the newer version but it looks like a different style with a zipper in the front instead of side entry.
