Alipolo Zitty Sport Vest Mens Summer Cotton Leisure Outdoor Plus Size Fish Vest

It took a couple of tries to get the size I wanted to order in the shopping cart. I followed the sizing chart in the last product photo, then ordered a size larger based on other reviews. The size I chose in the drop-down menu was not the size that appeared in the shopping cart, so I picked the next size and got the one I wanted in the cart. And that's what I received.It's well made and it fit well, if a little short in length. The front and shoulder areas are lined, the back is not. It has lots of pockets, including four on the inside. The larger lower front pockets are surprisingly big, since they pretty much open into the vest liner.It is a bit quirky. The front zipper slide is on the left, not right, and as I said, I had to fiddle a bit to get the size I wanted in the cart. And it has an embroidered brand name of some sort on one of the pockets, but it's in a thread color that pretty closely matches the vest color, so it doesn't stand out.So if you decide to order one, follow the chart in the product photos, order a size larger, and make sure the size you pick is what shows up in the shopping cart.

UPDATE: Ziti gave amazing customer care in addressing my issue which was that, the advice given to get a larger size resulted in getting a size that was TOO large for my husband. I don't advise you go up a size. If you are X Large, the GET X Large. Just make sure that you are the size you think you are by measuring your chest and then, go by the size chart.OK, now for the quality and design of the vest...VERY satisfied. I got him grey and it looks like it's a stone washed black which we like. He is nuts for pockets and this vest did not disappoint. It has pocket ON TOP OF pockets:). And they are deep too and the bottom ones go across the entire width of the vest on each side. AND, it has 4 pockets on the inside. Two diagonal zippered pockets on each side on the top and two zippered pockets on the bottom and, both top and bottom pockets are deep.

Like the vest but they are disproportionally larger ( in the gut ) than what the sizing chart describes. If your a fat guy with a big belly then they'll fit fine because they size the stomach area for beer bellies. 5XL is supposed to fit XL in US. I normally fit in a 2XL because I'm a broad shoulder tall guy, not a beer belly guy, but because they are a vest I thought stepping down would work and I just went for a standard XL size which should have fit fairly tailored in appearance; Nope, fit great in the shoulders and A-pits but man it was like... I could put a basketball in the stomach area. Apparently, the Chinese who make these think that 2XL in America means big fat 2XL belly. So, since I like the vest, its really nice, I'm in sort of a dilemma here, do I get a medium=2XL to get a vest that is sized for a guy without a gut and have the shoulders to tight? No don't think so. I think I'm going to look for something made in the USA... I know, I know, good luck with that - right?here is a copy of their sizing chart:(US S=Label XL, US M=Label 2XL, US L=Label 3XL,US XL=Label 5XL, US 2XL=Label 6XL, US 3XL=Label 7XL)

First off, read closely as most of the reviews on this vest are fake Chinese reviews. The vest is about as good as can be expected at this price. The zippers are terrible, the cheapest of cheap. Picture the zippers on a child's halloween costume. Two of my zippers were broken straight out of the package and I'm sure the others will fail over a short period of regular use. I have a CHL and the only reason I bought this cheap vest is that it's light weight (cheap material) and it covers my holster. I wouldn't consider putting anything of importance in either of the inside vest pocket because the lining is very thin. I plan on using the velcro pockets only so I'm not too concerned about the zippers. I would not have purchased this if I tried it on in a store, but I'm going to keep it since I bought it for the specific reason of concealing my holster.

UPDATE 05/2019 - The seller contacted me in April, and after some discussion sent me a new vest free of charge. This time I washed it twice in a row, with dye catchers to help remove anything that would stain. This seems to have worked, for the dye issue. HOWEVER, the vest itself is already falling apart after just 2 washes, with a seem ripping and lots of loose threads. I'm still very disappointed in this vest.I'd strongly suggest you look elsewhere for a utility vest,Update 09/2019 - In less than 4 months, the vest has nearly completely fall apart. Almost all the seems are ripping, making pockets insecure to keep anything in. It still leaves dye residues on anything left in the pockets for a significant time. Complete garbage of a product. Amazon should remove this listing!I'll keep this short and sweet. This vest stains anything it touches. Over time, the dye sued on it rubs off onto anything put in the pockets, or that touches it (including human skin!). My airpods case turned from white to a nasty off-white color. I had a white business card in one pocket, which now has a dark haze over it. Super disappointed with this vest!

I bought this vest for IDPA (pistol) competition. It covers properly and is easy to brush back for a quick draw. Be careful with the size you order. I had to order three vests to learn that their 3XL is about a US Medium. When their customer service department read of my disappointment regarding sizing, they contacted me three times to be sure I was happy. I admitted responsibility for not better researching Asian sizing, but they still offered a generous make good offer (which I declined). I was happy all along. Except for the sizing, this is a great garment that is very well made with all the pockets and closures anyone could want. The 3XL fit me and I used the other two I bought as gifts.
