KANSAN Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Hey everyone, I'm planning on buying a new HSS Pro Series safety vest soon. I've checked on other brands, like the Muddy and several others, but I keep coming back to the HSS vest. My big question is, for those that have experience with these vests is ..... what size do I buy?? I'm 5'9"/160 soaking wet - but I need the vest to fit in early season with lighter clothes and also during those cold November days when I'm wearing my insulated pullover and bibs. The sizes range from a S/M (100-175 lbs 32-44" torso) on up to the L/XL (175-250 lbs 42-56" torso). I don't want to swim in it, either! Thanks for any advice you can give me!!

fly Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 I went to shop that had them and tried several on. The tag on my HSS tree stalker says Large/XLarge. It fits a hunter from 150-275 lbs. 36"-52". I'm 6 foot and 200 pounds and it fits me fine with a light jacket as well as heavy coat. I'd suggest a large if trying one on is not possible.

KANSAN Posted August 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Well I just put on my winter clothes and the tape measure stretched to 43" around my torso. I'm guessing the S/M model is the way to go?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing the S/M model is the way to go?? I would say S/M for sure based on what you're saying Jody. I have the XL and it's roomy with early season clothes, but fits fine with the insulated stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2008 Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Jody they have weight comparisons to the size that you should get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
