Nice Vest
Not too bulky. Like the Velcro adjustments instead of ties on the side.

Comfortable but hot
This is my first vest so I have nothing to compare it to. I chose it for the safety rating and reviews. It is a little bulky and stiff. However, it’s not uncomfortable. But riding in a 70 degree day, my tee shirt was wet. So I’m not sure how it will feel any hotter. So that would be my only real complaint. I’m 5’6 with a 34 bust and the xs was perfect. It doesn’t look bad on either.

Definitely feel the quality
This riding vest was what I was looking for. It’s not flimsy like the ones in the $80 range but just as good quality at the ones in the $350 range. It’s definitely a bit still and feels like something I’d where if I was working a racehorse. Safety first was paramount to me ordering this one. Adjustable

More comfortable than I thought is would be!
This vest is so comfortable, I forget I have it on. Great value for the price and a very high safety rating - higher than the Tipperary Eventer! I highly recommend this vest.

Strange fit
Bought this as backup as the other is on backorder. Had help measuring myself and this vest fits so weird. It's very loose in the shoulders and yet I almost can't even zip it up. It was so bulky and tight around my waist that it was riding up into my face. I tried every adjustment possible (though they only make a tiny difference) and I just can't get it to fit. Should probably have listened to other reviews and picked something different.
Gave it 3 stars because if someone can get a good fit, I'd imagine the quality would be decent.

Fits perfectly and feels safe
I have used this vest 3 times now for cross country schooling. I bought an XS and I wear a small shirt size and a size 2 jacket. It is adjustable and fits really really. Its comfortable and once its on, I kind of forget it's there. Highly recommend for the price.

Good price
I bought this for jumping and riding bad horses, the first time I jumped off the horse I the edge of the zipper tore and I have yet to take it in and fix it. Its good quality, it also was my fault I tore it. It's also warm when riding. It's a bit stiff, but thats the purpose of it. Over all I do recommend this to riders.

Beautiful Vest
I purchased this vest and I love the quality. Unfortunately I should have ordered a size larger. I am very busty and could not get the vest to fit. I am definetly going to order the next size up.

Unfortunately couldn't get the right fit
I've been riding over 25 years. As I now ride a horse who can be spooky, I decided a vest was a good idea. I choose the Ovation vest after reading numerous reviews and good pricing. I am 5'3 and narrow through the chest. I initially tried an Adult XS. Unfortunately I was unable to get a proper fit in this vest. It gapped too much in the shoulder and chest area and could not be adjusted it to fit smaller, even after re-measuring and then considering youth sizes. It's otherwise very well made and sturdy, just does not appear to be intended for my body type. I will be looking for something else.
