Radians SV6G5X Two Tone Surveyor Class 2 Safety Vest, 5X-Large, Green

Very roomy and comfortable. I have purchased this vest twice. First one was durable and I completed many contractor jobs with this vest. I only purchased a new one because I stained my old vest with oil and other substances. This vest will last forever.

As an archaeologist working on a military installation who occasionally requires quick evac and encounters close calls with training fire when miscommunication occurs, this vest is both desirable for it's high visibility and it's functionality due to the pockets.My checklist for a safety vest includes visibility (reflectivity is not an issue for me, so I cannot comment on that), breathability, and easy access to commonly used tools. This vest is bright enough to be seen easily in heavy bush--Blaze is better than Safety Green, which sometimes blends in depending on the time of year and one's location. It is very lightweight, but only the back is breathable mesh. And the pockets are, for me, where this vest shines.The right breast pocket easily fits a standard sighting compasses (Silva Ranger owner) or smaller phones and walkies. The left breast pocket provides ample room and has a pen/pencil/grease pencil holster with 6 bays on the outside that make accessing writing utensils a breeze. Flagging tape and a folding ruler fit well in the lower pockets.Works a treat for my usecase.I cannot comment on OSHA or DOT compliance as I do not use this vest in situations that require such standards.

I’m very happy with this vest. The quality is excellent. It’s well put together. The size is as advertised.

I am a big guy. 4x tee shirts. I figured this would run small on the size so I ordered a 5x and it is pretty big and baggy on me. A 4x would have fit nicer, and probably still been a bit loose. I love all the pockets, the radio mic straps, and even a couple of pockets on the inside. It is bright as heck, and has reflective bands on it. Quality seems very nice. Zipper doesn't seem cheap as it has a bit of heft to it. I can see it being hot to wear in the Georgia heat, but so far, I have no complaints. Well worth the money. **UPDATED** Buying again after 2 years. Pocket stitching is ripping, clear plastic panel was in pieces. 13 bucks for 2 years? Sure, I'll buy another.

Arrived on time. As described. I,m a security guard whose facility went under construction. My company provided a simple high visibility vest that was a once size fit all,Velcro closures and no pockets. Unfortunately I was larger than most and wear a size 52 suit and the vest just would not do. This vest has 4 waist pockets, 2 outside with flap closures and two inside. The pockets where big enough to accept index card size notepads. There was a chest pocket on the right side that can fit most large cellphones and our company provided chunky Motorola Nextel fits nice and snug.Plus there are two should loops if you need a place to clip you mic to. Its bright orange and has the 3M reflective tape on the waist and tops of the shoulder. And best of all,.. it zips. No complaints and very happy with my purchase that some of my co-workers bought one their size.

I had already been using a orange version in three plants and really like it for the convenience of pockets for phone, safety glasses, gloves, small water bottles and pens and markers. Very nice and keeping me cooler I feel this summer with the mesh and lower cut to the front. I really like this style and layout.I am also required to use yellow/green-yellow in some plants and started looking around for the same brand surveyor's vest. I received an email early this week, ordered immediately and received it on the weekend via USPS. Absolutely the same. I am happy and recommend this vest for convenient use.An update: After four years of use I have replaced my original orange vest with a new XL and a XXL (larger for cold weather clothing. Or for being fat...ter) and one XXL yellow to go with my older XL yellow. The orange vests have one addition to them now. The phone pocket now has a clear plastic pocket in front of the original phone pocket for ID and so forth. Pretty neat!

Very light, good for warmer weather but doesn't look to durable. priced right for the quality. If its more durable than it looks I will update the review.

The old saying "you get what you pay for" holds true here. Had to replace a cheaper less expensive vest than I've had for 2 years. I ordered up to a 4XL this time so the vest would fit over my winter jacket and probably should have bought a 3X. I'm a 2X guy in shirts and need the loose vest to work, items seems to run a bit large.It is a quality items, nice pockets, etc. Now if I can just get back to work. #covidsucks
