Makes you standout
Pros: Attractive, Durable, High Quality
Cons: Expensive, medium size could be smaller
"Drivers give you a wide berth, handy string pockets, looks smart compared to normal boring high viz vests and good quality. As per other reviews the medium sized vest is what I would call a large."

Cons: 高価格
"前面メッシュポケットを気に入りブルベ用途で購入。他の方のレビューを読み、Mサイズをチョイス。身長180ｃｍ、胸囲100ｃｍの私でMサイズでちょうど良いです。通常であれば私は迷わずXLですが、２サイズは大きいのではないかと思われます。日本人であればよほど大柄な人でない限り、Mサイズで十分ではないかと思います。"

Pros: High Quality
Cons: Poor Fit
"First bit of advice here...go for a smaller size. If it helps I wear size large assos tops and the large in this is just a bit too flappy, I would go for a medium if i ordered again.
Having said that cars give me more room at night with this on than they do during the day - seriously reflective which is the name of the game. Not the most fashionable item (yes Im a bit of an Assos geek) but hey who knows it you at night :)"

Excellent vest
Pros: Durable, Comfortable, High Quality, Good Fit
"I'd previously shied away from these as they seem pricey compared to the hi-viz workman vests. However this is much more robust, zip front instead of flapping Velcro and really much more visible. You've also got useful pockets and a loop I use for attaching my keys. Seems good quality should get many years use out of it (I use it every day in winter) so promises to be a good value purchase"

Superb product for dark weather running
Pros: Durable, Attractive, High Quality, Lightweight, Versatile
"I ordered this because other did. I like it a lot because of the mesh pockets wich allows me to carry along extra gloves, a warm wool shirt and a bottle of water. No need for a rucksack imho. But i usually wears size SMALL in all my clothings, and this is a medium, so I think it is a bit big, I would like it to be more body shaped. Not sure if this is made in size small? So you guys using SMALL in all other running clothing, MEDIUM in this might be a bit large actually...."

Good product but expensive
Pros: High Quality, Rugged
Cons: Expensive, Poor Fit
"The one supplied is not the one pictured. On asking, I was told that none of the stock was the same as the one pictured and given a partial refund.
One supplied has less light attachment points and completely different reflectors.
Still a good product, makes you very visible in low light conditions. Need a smaller size in the range as medium is still big. Expensive too."

Pros: Comfortable, High Quality, Lightweight, Versatile
Cons: Expensive
"The sizing is generous, but it's a great vest. I use the front pockets for storing energy bars etc on long rides as I find these easier to access than the ones on the back.
I actually like it being a bit of the big side as it's gives you plenty of air flow on hot days. Perfect for the summer.
Even Melbourne drivers can see me now. Cars definitely give me more space, it makes you much more visible in day light and at night.
Good quality, looks like it will last."

Pros: Durable, Comfortable, High Quality, Lightweight
Cons: Expensive
"I have used this on quiet a few rides now. The ICE label is removable if you choose not to use it, if you do you fill in the details and cover with the sticky cover to make it waterproof. The pockets are useful and deep but I would not carry to much in them. It is the best high vis vest I have worn as it is both comfortable and better looking than most (in my opinion) I must admit other drivers give you more space on average when you have it on. It looks to be well made and lots of reflective material for night riding."

Good to be seen
Pros: getsya seen
"I'm pressed to rate this vest. I'm 100% in favour of wearing a safety vest to be seen, especially for commuters who ride in dawn or dusk conditions. Lime green is my favorite safety colour, as it's outside anything seen in the normal urban environment so catches driver's eye immediately. I think drivers associate safety vests with police, postal workers etc and will immediately register you for consideration.
If you don't wear a reflective vest at night you are way more vulnerable. If a traffic stream is passing you, the fifth car back may still register your presence as this can be seen through numerous car windows. Consider the height of this vest compared with where you carry a tail light, and the advantage for drivers 200m back. Gaining 2 sec of driver response time is a huge benefit for a vulnerable cyclist. The small crescent of light that a bike headlight presents to a driver entering a roundabout is nothing against the side view of this vest. The front 2 and 1 rear pockets are a boon for stashing shades and gloves, something my VicRoads vest lacks completely.
Negatives. Perhaps 30-40% of the reflective material used is blocked with printed black ink, which is lost efficiency. The black mesh material front and rear obscures the orange fabric by 50-70%. However, on balance it's possible to say it is a high viz vest that's under-stated. I can see myself wearing this on 100km club rides for this reason. I've got a more full-on orange reflector vest that's served me well on a 34km commute, but this toned down vest looks cool for Audax rides. It's safe to say this will still catch a driver's eye. Build quality seems fine"

Pricey but good
Pros: Durable, Comfortable, High Quality
Cons: Expensive
"Very bright, which is what you want on a bicycle - to be seen rather than hit. When you put that in perspective, its worth the price.
Zip makes it easy to remove.
Handy pockets front (where I can put my phone) and back, though you might want something more secure for precious items."

Bright and sturdy
Pros: Durable, Rugged, High Quality
Cons: Bulky
"This vest is very bright with ample coverage of reflective strips. The zipper is of good quality and seems unlikely to jam or have other problems. The material is quite thick, which is likely to prolong the life and may be beneficial in some climates but it makes the vest slightly less comfortable than it otherwise might be. The collar in particular is not very soft, but with the high necks that are standard in most jerseys, this is unlikely to be a problem for most cyclists. The zip struck me as quite short, starting low and finishing high, but it has proven more than sufficient to prevent it from flapping in the wind and I now consider this to be a positive feature."

Stand out in the crowd.
Pros: Durable, Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable, High Quality, Good Fit
"This is the smartest looking hi-viz vest I ever bought. I never used to wear my other dorky looking vest but now I try to wear this on every trip. Very well made with pockets for when it goes dark and you need to put your sun-glasses somewhere. I feel very visible at night and cars seem to give me a wider berth. It is not a flimsy product and will even provide some wind protection. So smart that I don't even take off when in cafes, museums etc. Well worth the money for the extra visibility provided."

Feel safe on dark winter nights
Pros: High Quality, Lightweight, Good Fit
Cons: Expensive
"I bought this in the sale having hung on for months to get a top range high viz top at a reasonable price. This is an excellent bit of kit with lots of good quality detail. I was particularly taken by the ICE credit card sized add on where you can put your emergency contact details - though filling it in made me feel a touch uneasy.
One things for sure - you shouldnt be registering a SMIDSY claim with this on - it glows at night!"
