What tekvest to buy?

[Kpg]

Hey, buying a tekvest till next year and want some tips of what to buy.
Been considering 2 vests in particulary. Tekvest Pro-Lite SX and Tekvest Supersport, you will find both in link under. Do any have any experiences with these two vests? with regards, kristoffer.

I have the Tekvest Trail Pro model which is very similar to the Pro Lite model and I'm really happy with it. To me it has more protection in front over the Supersport due to the lack of the zipper, but that's just my opinion. You wont go wrong with either, just personal preference.

I ended up going with a moto style vest. I was skeptical at first, but after wearing it I was pleasantly surprised. I also saved myself about a hundred or so dollars. I do know that after wearing one, I would never not wear one again. You feel naked without them.

I've got the Freestyle.

I've got the Freestyle.

X 2 ..... No matter which, you'll be protected.

Freestyle here, works great, comfortable. Only complaint is that it gets warm in the spring. The arms are nice to have too, nice when riding in the trees and they come off real easy for the warmer days.

Saved me from a lot of pain... won't ride without it, usually throw it on loading and unloading too.

ditto on the trail pro and love it.

whatever one you'll get you'll love it, and you do really feel naked without it.

I got the supersport ... i think.

of trail pro, pro lite and supersport, what is the best vest if you want a comfortable vest that still will give as much as possibly protection? Was thinking of the pro lite because it looks very light, but does it give as good protection as the other 2 vests?

Ok, Ive decided to buy a pro-lite vest. My waist and upper chest measurements are both around 40" and 20" from my neck down to my hips and i weigh about 200 pounds. Is large gonna fit me best?

ISRA legal style vest.

No zipper.
Not as easy to get into as the popular models, but coverage is more complete.

It adds a layer of warmth.

Goes underneath layers pretty easily.

No pockets though.

^ Nice, but they don't make 'em anymore.

Coverage looks the same as the freestyle with the exception of the zipper area in front (No armor there, height of vest x 1" wide), adjustment looks the same as well.

Freestyle doesn't have pockets, or even a D-ring for a tether.

Perfect vest would be freestyle, -zipper, +d-ring, +pocket for beacon.
