    No like!

    Those big pockets on the front of your vest would drive me crazy, they will get in the way! Go with a sling pack no crap up front to mess with your mind.

    Really those are pretty damn ugly also. Are they considered life saver vests? If so that would be the only reason to buy one for a kayak or boat I guess.

    First thing came to mind...is this a fishing vest or a PFD? It looks a little tactical for fishing and a bit overkill with the pockets. This probably looks better as a PFD or diving vest rather than a fishing vest.

    Lol they look cumbersome as hell..

    I prefer the oldskool vests. They're better looking.

    I'll be the first to admit that there are some rather sexy lookin JDM items that aren't readily available in the US. But then there are some pretty, uh, interesting items, just like those vests.

    If I were looking for a mobile pack, I'd go with any of these before wearing those vests:





    or a Shimano XEFO shoulder pack:







    I'd even go with a traditional 'hip' pack, and take it back to 1985.







    Or you can use Lady Quagga's favorites:





    Check out some of the fly fishing stuff too if vests are your thing.



    They also make some pretty functional shoulder/wasit packs as well.
