20lbs

Really happy with this weighted vest. The build quality is solid, the price was right, and I love that it offers such a wide range — you can go as light as 20 lbs and scale all the way up to 150. It’s comfortable to wear considering the weight, though fair warning: once you load it up, it will feel heavy — that’s the point. Here’s my old-man advice if you’re new to weighted vests: don’t start at the top. Add weight gradually and let your body adapt — wear it for walks or around the house first before you jump into workouts. Your joints, back, and knees will thank you. Once you’re used to it, this vest becomes an incredible tool for training, hiking, or just turning everyday movement into exercise. Overall, it’s exactly what I wanted — sturdy, adjustable, and capable of growing with you as you get stronger.

The RUNmax Adjustable Weighted Vest is fantastic quality and has really taken my workouts to the next level. The adjustable weights make it easy to increase resistance as I get stronger, and the option with shoulder pads makes it much more comfortable during longer sessions. It fits securely without shifting around, and the build feels very durable. Great for running, bodyweight training, or even just walking. Highly recommend for anyone looking to add extra intensity to their fitness routine!

I received my weighted vest earlier today, and I've been wearing it for a good portion of the day. So far, my impressions are largely positive. I ordered the 60 LB vest with shoulder straps, as that seemed to be the best value proposition, and it allowed me to remove weights. My first impression was how heavy the 60 LB vest really was. It came with the weights (sandbags) installed. I'd suggest removing them before putting the vest on. The vest does include some instructions, but I confess I did not read them. I'm not sure if removing the weights is recommended, but it really helps. You can then reload the weights once the vest is on. Aside from the difficulty of getting the fully-loaded vest on, it fit pretty comfortably. I didn't notice much pull on my shoulders, and the weight seems well-distributed, without too much pull on my shoulders, even without the pads - though I did definitely notice that the weight on my shoulders was enough that the muscles there are getting tired. In fact, I definitely noticed the weight of the vest just moving around, and it seems like I'm going to need to build up some core strength to really try to work out with the full 60 LBs. I was a little concerned that the vest had been damaged during shipping, as the box was beaten up and there was a metal ring sticking out of it. However, the vest only uses sand for weight, and the sand bags all seem intact, with no leakage. The fabric smelled only very faintly of plastic and seems tough and rigid, though there were some loose threads in some of the stitching. As far as exercise is concerned, even with 4 of the 6 pouches emptied (so down to 36 LBs of weight), the vest still made it a lot easier to get my heart rate up when walking, though it was difficult to even try running. Squats worked well, and there's definitely a bit more of a burn there. I noticed a good increase in difficulty walking up two steps at a time. On the downside, the vest is thick enough that it does tend to get in the way of some arm movements, and you can't go all the way down doing pushups. We're talking a good 3 inches thick, mainly because of the sandbags. I suppose metal weights would have been less bulky, but probably a lot more expensive. Overall, I think this vest will still help me meet my fitness goals, as it does provide a physical challenge in various exercises. I'm a little disappointed at movement limitations with my arms, but not enough to regret the purchase. I do think this is going to last pretty well, as long as I make sure to keep any unused sandbags away from where anything could puncture them. I'd also recommend figuring out what the maximum weight you may want to try using, buying that, and then adding more weight to the vest as you feel comfortable. That seems better than making multiple purchases, but your mileage may vary.

Quality is good, fit and size is great. Weight distribution is awesome. It is durable and didn't notice any smell when received.

When you pick this thing up and feel the full weight you think, "there's no way Im going to be able to put this on". Then you carefully slide in to it and realize that the perfect weight distribution makes this pretty darn bearable. In fact, your legs are more likely to get tired than your back is! I needed this to train for a fitness test coming up. I love the ease of adjusting the weight to what I want, and the 5 pockets on both sides give you options for where you put the weights. Its comfortable and the lower chest band gives great support. I didnt get the ones with the shoulder pads, and while I do think they would make it more comfortable, you can easily add your own make shift padding that will do the same thing. This is a great exercise tool to really help you build muscle and strength. Its very good quality and seems like it will be durable over time.

It fits great, feels sturdy on shoulders and weight is evenly distributed which makes it ideal for hiking, running. Whatever you do. Good quality and honestly would recommend it to anyone. Definitely worth it.

Fantastic! Absolutely works. Fit (on a woman with a good size chest) was brilliant. Didn’t chaff. Took a while to build up got the full weight but absolutely fantastic that you can add and remove weights. Start with this vest because buying one that allows you to build weight will always be a great idea! I can absolutely see how much easier it is to run without it so it’s is def making me fitter. I wish there was a little more shoulder padding but the Velcro hold is fantastic. I’d buy this again and again - esp if I could add more weight

Nice snug fit, doesn't move around. Vests that move, cause pain and chaffing. This fits very well and is well balanced. Removable weights, so vest is washable. Very happy, plus you can order heavier weights to up the maximum load. Very comfortable, has phone holder and two straps to keep vest on firmly. Very happy with the quality, and was cheaper than the 20lb vest I bought at Walmart, which hurt my shoulders and back because it was too front heavy and the weight was not distributable. I am glad I went with the shoulder pads, it is heavy enough at full weight to merit the use of the shoulder pads, you can easily make your own too.

bon matériel

Excelente chaleco. Lo compré hace 2 meses y me ha funcionado excelente para hacer lagartijas y sentadillas con peso extra. El material es resistente y la forma de poder quitar o agregar peso al chaleco es sencilla. Si te gusta hacer ejercicio con movimientos funcionales este chaleco es una gran opción por el precio. Compra el de Shoulder pads para que no te resientas del trapecio y los hombros.

This vest does what it’s supposed to and does it well. The weight is adjustable in clean increments, the fit is secure, and the shoulder pads make a real difference for longer sessions. Most vests skip that comfort layer or sell it separately—this one includes it, and it’s hard to find again once stock dries up. The nylon shell wipes clean easily, and the sandbag weights stay put without shifting. It’s bulky at full load, but the balance is solid and the straps hold firm. No bouncing, no awkward shifting, and no stitching failures so far. If you’re serious about adding resistance to walks, stairs, or bodyweight work, this is a reliable pick. Just don’t wait on the shoulder pad version—it’s not something you’ll easily source later.

Excelente calidad, muy cómodo de usar..
