Looking for good quality and light hunter's orange vest

[jm1607]

Can anyone recommend any? I have a walmart one but would like a better one.. I really don't like the mesh

1) Looking for one of the "camo" ones with the black tree limbs on it or anything to breakup the orange just a little bit.

2) Would also prefer with no pockets and non-insulated

Search Game hide sneaker big game vest on amazon. I have it in solid orange, its now available with tree limbs. It does have pockets though. After 8 years and many washes it's still bright as new. Its a soft fleece doesn't hold water, quiet, does well with burs.

UA and Browning make decent orange vests that are light weight. Wife and i use the browning ones. There is a member on this forum that makes some nice orange vests as well.

I use the UA one. I like it!

I bought an orange puffy vest from REI and Patagaoni along with a Patagonia 1/4 zip micro puffy for late season. I'm not a rifle hunter, but I'll usually be out in areas where they are so I would like to be seen. A standard orange vest is a waste of money to me, so I wanted to get something to pull double duties.

Double check the states you will be using it in allow a pattern, some are solid orange only.

I just use a cheap Remington vest that is solid orange. It's full fabric and I just throw it on over whatever else I'm wearing. Definitely check the regs.....CO is a "solid orange" only state......no camo orange.

I have one of these safety panels for my pack but I think the vest is the same material. Not camo but nice and light and a good price:

Yes, this is me!!
jm1607, you mentioned you weren't looking for mesh. Mine are made of mesh to save on weight (Large = 2.2 ounces), but I will guarantee the product. If you can destroy it I'll give you a refund and a new vest.

We are launching a digital camo pattern this year that is guaranteed to be legal (i.e. 500+ inches of orange even accounting for the camo) in states where camo orange is legal. That is expected to go on sale in early September.

another vote for Under Armour, although Sitka added one to their lineup recently might look at that one as well.

I beat on an Orange Aglow vest all season last year and it still looks new. I highly recommend them.
