Yes, I'll definitely have to check out the local tackle shops (there are plenty in Chilliwack).
Hey Jack, what size is the photo vest you have?
Hi Jenna,
Firstly, I apologise for being so tardy in replying and I have no excuse except for
not checking back

and, secondly, the vest is a Tenba and is a Large and, sadly,
doesn't come with a few
XX's in front of it or I might be wearing it

. Also, it
comes with a
waist belt like on the LowePro Backpack bags and a diagram of the
pockets and such inside the Vest

....

Here is kind of what the vest looks like:

I know a woman photographer in San Diego picked up not too long ago and seems happy with it

Cheers and let me know about the Vest
