Reply to "Measuring Vests"

bobthurstonMember

I am wondering whether Jim or anyone is interested in revisiting the measurer's vest project? I love the reflective vest I got as an IAAF measurer, and I use it always when I'm measuring. But I am also still using my old orange vest (anyone remember those?) that someone got for us back in something like 1984, it has a TAC logo on it; it's great for holding a notebook, calculator, and maybe a course map or something.

But my old vest is REALLY falling apart and is mostly held together with duct tape and safety pins!

I saw a fellow from a construction site today who seemed to have a great vest for our purposes, bright orange and lots of pockets-- the fabric was a bit heavy but he said the company where they get these also makes one with a lot of mesh. But the cost was steep, he thought around $150.

Thoughts anyone?
