Each one works for a particular use, and this one has entered the rotation for specific times. It is not perfect, but the value is very high. I'll go through some details to help you think through whether this vest is a good match for what you need.First, about that value: it's really good. I have two other vests which cost four and five times what this one did. Now, they're objectively better in certain ways, and one of them is my daily go-to in the summer, but for the price, this one is great. If you're just starting out and don't want to spend much, or if you only rarely need a vest, I think this would work well for you (with provisos -- see below). If you're a 50-mile\/week runner, I think it's probably worth investing more. So, some details:- Size. This is a one-size-fits-all vest. I was able to adjust it successfully to fit my 6-foot, 165-pound frame. But that leaves a lot of strap hanging loose which I'll either fix with tie wraps or cut off and re-sew the ends. If you're smaller than I am, this probably won't work well for you. But there's a lot of size flex upwards, so I'll bet someone 6'-3\", 250 would still fit this just fine. The size, for me, means that I'll use this most when running with layers, or even if I just need a slimline hiking vest to carry a bit of water and a snack.- Quality. It's pretty durable. I don't worry about it getting wet or in the brush. At this price point, the buckles and such are very basic, and it's definitely heavier than a fancier vest. If you care about those things, then you need to spend more money. But I bet that those things are really not that important to most.- Water bottle. Similar to many others. Do be sure to use the tea trick (put a tea bag in and essentially brew a bag of tea first, then empty and rinse before using) to help with tastes and odors.- Flexibility. Decent. Two pockets for water bottles, a zippered pocket, and a pouch on the back that you can reach while running. The latter, in particular, works pretty well, and better than my more expensive vests.So, there you go. For me, all of that -- when taking value into consideration -- equates to five stars. I grade on a value curve, and this one measures up well. That's not to say it's for you, which is why I write these reviews. Hope that helps.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 10px; background: #f9f9f9; border-radius: 4px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLightweight \/ Adjustable Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e (★★★★ 4)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 13px;\"\u003eI plan to use this vest on some hikes and runs. It's lightweight and has many pockets. The water bottle looks a little on the flimsy side but it is designed this way for easy transport. The main issue that I have with it is the adjustable straps. I'm thin, so I need to tighten the vest a good bit and this leaves a lot of extra strap. I'll likely try to either cut them or find a way to secure them so that they aren't flapping all over the place. If I do cut the straps, I'll need to sew or glue the edges so that they don't become frayed.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 12px; padding: 10px; background: #f9f9f9; border-radius: 4px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact Vest\u003c\/strong\u003e (★★★★★ 5)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 13px;\"\u003eThis vest is great.
