Product Highlights

The Tamrac 153 World Correspondent's Vest, Medium (Khaki) is constructed of 100% cotton that is washable with less than 5% shrinkage and has nylon mesh vents for ventilation. It has lots of convenient pockets and is appropriate for almost any photographic assignment. There are ten pockets on the front of the vest that allow for any photographic situation. During hot weather, two zipper vented mesh pockets open to provide cooling ventilation. Four touch fastener closing patch pockets provide fast access and are large enough for nearly any accessory. Two zippered side pockets give the photographer secure space for film and accessories. Two hand warmer pockets can also be used to hold keys, coins, etc. Three more pockets can be found on the inside of the vest. Two large pockets close with a touch fastener, while one closes with a zipper to secure valuables. A large, roomy touch fastener closing pocket can be found on back and discreet vented back panels provide flow through ventilation without looking like a mesh vest. Side tabs are provided so the vest can be adjusted for a custom fit.
The front zips open and closed with a two-way zipper and snap tab, allowing the vest to be adjusted for perfect ventilation and comfort. Four "D" rings provide safe accessory and press pass attachment points. Snap-down epaulets keep camera and bag straps from slipping off the shoulder.

Comments about Tamrac 153 World Correspondent's Vest, Medium (Khaki):
The biggest item I wanted this to hold was a Sigma 70-200 lens while using a smaller lens on one of two cameras and it does this well, the vest is comfortable but for the sharp corners on the velcro but a small amount of time with sharp scissors takes the corners of the offending corners, I plan on ordering the black version for the cooler weather it soaks in the suns rays more effectivly, all in all I am pleased with the vest

Plenty of compartments and pockets. Functional design. Light weight. However sizes do run large, had to return my medium for a small. I almost always am a tight medium, this one was closer to a large in actual size
