Amazon.com Product Description
Designed for all-purpose training but particularly well suited to building core strength, the MiR workout plate vest is a great choice for athletes, firefighters, and other strength-based professionals. The short-style vest is built to hold a variety of weight plates--even the plates from your bench set--with a cross strap to keep the plate secure. That means you can strap in a 5-pounder for light resistance, or you can add up to 40 pounds to enjoy a serious challenge while exercising at the gym. The vest is also extremely durable, with reinforced 1200 D-nylon throughout the body, along with a dual-layer neck lining that prevents any tearing. Once fastened to your torso, the vest offers resistance for such activities as power walking, running, lateral drills, vertical jumps, squats, lunges, dips, pull-ups, push-ups, and more. All told, the vest helps you increase strength and speed, accelerate weight loss, improve respiration, build muscle, and gain quickness and power. The weight vest--which measures 14 by 13 by 1 inch (W x H x D)--carries a lifetime warranty. Weight plates are sold separately.

 poor design June 29, 2010

This vest does not fit olympic 5 lb weights. I have 3 different types of olympic 5 lb weights and none of them fit. It will hold the weights in place but they stick out of the sides of the weight pockets and scrape your upper arms. I am very disappointed.
Good Vest; One Caveat June 10, 2010
chill_dog
The construction of the vest is good; it's very sturdy. The straps hold the weights in, no problem. The adjustable shoulders and chest strap allow it to truly "fit all". It's comfortable to wear, too.
My one caveat is this: IT ONLY WORKS WITH STANDARD PLATES (for 5 lb weights). This is big to me since I didn't see this mentioned here, on MIR's site, or anywhere else. I figured I could use my Olympic plates with this. Wrong. Olympic 2.5's will fit fine, but who has 40 lbs of them (and even if you did, I doubt that many would fit).
And about those standard plates... Solid standard plates, like the ones in the pictures on MIR's site (no holes besides the the bar hole), fit perfectly. Standard plates with extra holes (I found some that have three holes besides the bar hole) will fit, as well, but it's tight. Everything still straps down nicely, and the plates don't move, so it's perfectly ok, but this vest was clearly designed to be used with solid standard plates.
good product but the shipping is a total ripoff. May 20, 2010

Exactly What I Expected March 11, 2010
Jason A. Morstein (Wash, DC)
I ordered this vest because Jason Khalipa (Crossfit God) uses a MIR vest in his training (I use every product he endorses, see my INOV-8 shoe review). I am also a competitive Crossfitter and we are always looking for ways to improve. I did not want to spend a lot of money on a vest so I decided to try this one. It is top of the line construction, I don't think I could damage this vest if I tried. I am sure it will out-live me! It stays tight on the body and it adjusts to fit snug. I gave it four stars because, with the weights added, it can get a bit bulky. However, only exercise I found to be a pain were kettlebell swings due to the fact that the 5# plates I used in the vest stuck out and scrapped my arms. They are still manageable and I am sure I could have jimmied them in there better. I did "Fran" in this vest the other day and the thrusters and pull ups were not impeded by the vest at all. I have also performed burpees, box jumps, SDHP, muscle ups and ran in this vest with no problem other then it weighs over 20# when fully loaded! I would definitely recommend MIR as your Rolls Royce of weight vests and this specific one if you are trying to save some cash.
