maidenfan Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Just a heads up fellas about a product I've been using for the last year or so. I bought the 84lb X-Vest and have used it maybe 15 or so times - most of the time it sat in my bedroom. About 2 months ago I noticed the material of the vest was starting to rot and fall apart - in non-use areas. I contacted the manufacturer who told me to send the vest (not weights) to him for a refund review, which I did. The company has had the vest for almost a month and a half now and have ignored all of my correspondance emails and phone calls. All of their voicemail boxes are full and will not take any further messages. I spent $365.00 on the vest and now I cant even use it as all I have are the weights to go with it. I did notice that the company was more than willing to take an online order for another vest today though. If you're in the market for a weight vest, stay away from the x-vest.

underdawg Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Thanks for the heads up, Morgan. A weighted vest is something I've been looking at for a long time, now I know which one to avoid if I ever decided to make a purchase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there was a picture from the DieselCrew where someone was doing dips with chains in an Rambo fashion (X on the back where equal chains go over both shoulders). I bet $365 would buy you a whole lot more than 84lbs worth of chain! Thanks for the lookout though. Can't trust anyone these days (except for the Gripboard sponsers!)
