I have a $200+ guardian vest from uglydog. I had 4 layers of kevlar added to the leg flaps, chin flap and body. It has taken lots of cuts and abuse but served my dog very well. I have no complaints and extremely happy with the product.
It would be ok with you that if your $200+ vest gets blasted and cut through and the neck ripped off on one pig? And your only options that are offered by the maker is wait a month or buy a new one? HELL WANT TO BUY SOME VESTS!??
I would not like it but I have enough sense to understand you have a fabric material expected to hold up against no telling how many pounds of force from an angry hog slinging 1,2,3" cutters to the stitching or any part of the vest. its not even reasonable to think that is not a possibility. If that is the case I would take it to a seamstress, boot maker etc and have it repaired and be back in business in a day.
