[Review] Walls ANSI II Premium Safety Vest

[RedLdr1]

While wandering through Tractor Supply Company I found a very nice Safety vest. The vest is made by Walls, is Hi-viz and has a good amount of reflective tape, all for $20. Tractor Supply has several other versions, mesh, orange color, velcro closings, etc as well.

These vests are significantly cheaper than the ones carried in dedicated bike stores and look just as durable. I bought one to carry so I can add it to the rest of my gear if conditions warrant. And hopefully it will work to get me through the gate when I visit military installations where a Hi-Viz vest is required...

Walmart carries the Walls Brand work clothes and hi-viz vests. I bought mine there for $14. Jerry

Just bought a hi vis yellow vest to go over the Tourmaster coat. It has some very nice features.
Cycle Gear is selling these at a clearance for $22.50:

The replacement ($30) is the same vest with Bilt stenciled front and back.

Salesgirl said they were different brands. We put them side by side and laughed. I went with the cheaper, no advertisement vest.
