 A Running Christmas Tree!Oct 14, 2010
By Janet E. Sedy
I bought this vest to be seen while running in the dark, early morning hours here in the PacNW. When I first put it on and turned on the lights, my 5 year-old exclaimed with all the innocent admiration of a 5 year-old, "Mom! You look like a Christmas Tree!" This vest is so bright, it lights up the reflective street signs ahead of me. I figure if I get hit while wearing this vest, the driver meant to hit me, and my family can sue big time. I hope that it might also frighten away any of the larger wildlife that are resident in the area. On the down side, it is a little stiff, and for my small frame (size 6) a little large, even with everything in as snug as it can go. I had to sew the overlap at the sides in place so it would stay without flapping around. It took a couple of runs to get used to wearing it, but now it doesn't bother me. Anyway, it does the job very well--worth the money I spent, and I don't feel nervous about getting hit along the dark, rural roadways I run along.

Good for Night Runners.....Feb 01, 2010
By Tabitha
I bought this vest because I like to run and I tend to do so after dark. Not only is it effective in letting drivers know where you are, it alse serves are a decent lantern if it is completely dark and you need to see where you're going so you don't twist an ankle.
The only issue I have with it is that it is a little bulky if you have a smaller frame. Also, while it is light weight, it's not weightless. It won't slow you down but it does take some getting used to if you are used to running unhindered.
Having such effective reflective gear is worth any damper this would put on your workout. Also, you can use it while Trick-or-Treating with the kids if they'll be seen with you. Your coolness level will take a serious dip when you are running around with the dorky flashing reflector vest, but hey, are you try to get a workout or be a fashion plate? Get over it and get on the road!

 Wonderful for Biking at nightApr 22, 2010
By Charles F. Snyder
"Chuck"
I ride my bike early in the morning to catch a bus to get to work. There is one stretch of road that has no bike lanes, and no lights. Before wearing this vest the cars would go around me like they do in daylight. After putting on the vest, the cars started going clear across the white line to clear me.
There is no way the drivers can miss you.

Fantastically useful!Dec 06, 2010
By Tyler Lordino
"Superluminal"
This is a splendid product.
Our apartment complex consists of several buildings off of a main street in suburban Boston: the primary route through the complex is one way. Resultantly, folks often proceed a little too quickly 'round the loop to get to their parking spaces.
This vest has proven quite useful, as I note folks moving considerably slower around my dog and me when I'm flashing - probably something not too many folks have seen. After a week or two of use, they're more used to it, though the slow driving continues. (Note: The lights may flash or be steady-lit.)
The material is pretty resilient, and there is Velcro for variations in size and fit. Someone both clumsy and bulky might find a way to rip the seems: it's not put together for a moonwalk. Additionally, the battery pack could be a bit more securely connected to its cabling. But if you're reasonably careful, there'll be no problems...
Although it might look like overkill, I find it very useful: I do believe it increases the safety of me and whoever is with me while walking.
References for size (I use its smallest configuration): 5'8" @ 130lbs with std leather jacket waist 30"; with heavy winter coat I'm now using: "waist" @ 36" and there's plenty of room to expand further with the Velcro.
Enjoy!

best night time running vest everNov 16, 2010
By Wendy L. Gardner
"christophersmom"
I've been using this vest for the past month in partial darkness, and now that the time has changed, I use it in complete darkness. I've tried reflector vests and attachable lights before, but this is so much better. It is a little large like some people said, but that will be good for the winter months if I have to put a coat under it. It looks a little silly, but the important thing is you can run in the dark and you are clearly visible. If you run in complete darkness like me, it alos helps light up the road a little. This was a great investment! My husband and I both use it several times a week. It also has a pocket for a cell phone. I put mace in that pocket and carry my cell phone, but either way it is useful. I had no problems adjusting to it, and my husband said it took him 2 or 3 runs to get used to it.
