I’m partial to the knight and hale R&G 200. To me it’s the perfect vest for someone who does a lot of walking and doesn’t carry much crap. Cushion and back support aren’t as good as one of the big bulky vests, but more than adequate for my needs. Can put a bladder in the back.
I have the same vest. First season using it, also first season using a water bladder. It worked good, and was comfortable, but I need a few more pockets lol
