Really like those brindle dogs Mike. How do you like that vest so far?
I like the way it's put together and fits. I was worried about the chin flap being in the way and hindering mobility, but it seems to be just fine. It's heavier than my old vest, but that's expected with all the extra kevlar.
The real test will be after catching a few toothy hogs and seeing how it holds up... which I don't have any doubts on. My old vest is a short, single layer kevlar I had Krystal custom make for me a couple years back... still without any puntures.
