    Thanks for the post. Looks like some good deals. I really want a pair of the below. Think they will fit?

    I picked up 3 of them a few weeks ago. I was happy with 2 of them, the 3rd was WAY off in sizing. Instead of messing with a return I just decided to keep it for guests that might need that size.

    Exactly the problem I had. I have a helium vest that I bought a year or two ago that I love. So I bought the same size in another style and it's not even close. Not sure why a company would use different sizing by model, but if you can get one to fit they have some fantastic vests. And for $30... it's worth a shot.

    That's what happened to me a couple years ago. I ordered a vest that came 2 sizes too large. I put on 40 lbs. so it would fit. Now it takes a lot of beer just to maintain the weight but I'm committed.

    501, Cab and i were the ones who did the Polk speakers and all worked out well ,other than waiting for delivery via Snail mail. Thanks again Cab. Now i'm in the slow process of changing other stereo components to match the deal that i/we all got on those speakers.

    Maybe even just a large, depends on which of the two models you get. One is true to size, the other is way off
