Any recommendations for a minimalist turkey vest?

Seems like every single turkey vest is a slight variation of the same design with 5 times as many pockets as I need, tons of fabric to keep me sweating, and loose/noisy. I like these chest rig concepts coming onto market the last couple years, but they would get in the way of my binos and don't allow for a cushion to be carried.

I found a discontinued Little Big Horn Turkey Sling pack a few years. It works perfect for me. I snap it off when I sit down and lay it next to me. Very comfortable and Carries all I need.

I went to a chest pack and like it 100 times better than a vest. Look at the Outdoor Vision turkey pro rig. It has enough room for what I tote plus some. It is WAY cooler than a vest too. I use an inner tube seat from Glenda Green to sit on.

Lol. Last thing we need is another man carrying around a purse.

The Ol Tom Time and Motion vest has served me well and isn’t too overpocketed or busy. The seat pad could be better, but not a dealbreaker for me.

Whatever Walmart carries is absolutely fine. Heck I’m moving toward not even using a vest after doing it for almost 20 years. There’s only so much I need and I’ve whittled it down and dropped all the nonessentials.

Cabelas speed seat half turkey vest. It's like a fanny pack with a thick cushion. Been using the same one for probably 10 years. I don't like how hot shoulder straps make me so this has been great

I use the old style primos strap style vest. Ive had my old one for maybe 20 years. You can still find them on ebay. I pucked up a never worn used one off face book a few years ago, but cant bring myself to switch out. Though the old one is getting pretty bad.

Hard to get past the baseball player superstition, ain’t it! Misplaced my skinning knife before hunting season one year. I knew better, but bought a new one (you know, for “when” I kill one). Jinx!!! Didn’t see anything legal to shoot….

Thought I saw this system floating around Aldeer. Maybe it was another forum. Appears minimalist in comparison to some.

Second this one. I experimented for several years trying to look for a minimalistic piece of gear and this satchel worked the best for me.
