I was really excited for my first legitimate vest and this one fell short. I'm a midsize girl, the waistband fits but barely. The straps are borderline too thick for me and I'm afraid gun mounting will be impeded. The water bottle holders are mesh and the elastic will not hold anything let alone a full nalgene well. Lastly, the front pocket closures are totally ineffective. I will probably try to attach velcro to them myself to hold shells otherwise I'll lose them. There's also a stiff handle that ends up sitting right on my neck that drives me crazy.
I like the feel of it overall and the sturdiness of the game pouch, but that's about it :(
Pradlann Upland Vest
I was very excited for this vest, it does the job but has lots of room for improvement. This is NOT a one size fits all. I am an xs, have the straps cinched all the way, and it is too big. The belt sags bad and my shoulders hurt after an hour walk from all the weight. The padding is also a little thick for my liking and affects gun mounting for sure. A more light weight option, and in sizes would be much more preferable. It would be very nice to have two waterbottle pouches as well and a clip on the front of the shoulder strap for the garmin. I wish I would’ve been able to try this on before purchasing, but unfortunately there is little options for women as it is, especially smaller ones as they can’t make the men’s sizes work.
A nice lightweight vest that allows for easy access into the back bird pouch. A TON of pockets to keep things separate and safe (licenses, etc.). Nothing I’ve purchased from Prois has been money wasted, proud to wear such a wonderful women’s brand.
The Pradlann vest has replaced my usual safety vest for all of my field days at work. As a Biologist and college professor of various field courses, this vest has become an integral piece of gear for my day-to-day work. It has enough blaze orange to keep me safe, plus TONS of pockets and pouches. First Aid kit, field journals, sample containers, snacks, water, GPS, lip balm, safe storage for keys - this vest has room for EVERYTHING. Dump the gear and it quickly transitions to a stellar upland hunting vest with big roomy game pocket and comfort fit! Well balanced, easy to wear. Only drawbacks for me are 1) that I wish the hip belt could be cinched tighter. At 5'7" and 140lbs, it ends up being really loose, even when snugged as tight as possible. Not a huge issue since I'm not carrying 100lbs of gear long-term, but a bit of a peeve. 2) loop and hook that holds the main back pouch closed occasionally comes undone in the brush - again, not a big problem, but a minor irritation that prevents a 5-star rate!
