Is this a good vest for women for size? It says one-size fits all, but what about someone who is 5'5" and 120lbs?

I am 5'6'' and it fits great. You can adjust and snug as you wish. I recommend the vest and also advice to use the weights accordingly. too fast can be too much too fast. if you are in great shape than this will get you even further, but if you are not I would add weights light to begin with and work myself up. Im not sure where the extra 20 Lbs they give you will be added, there really isn't any more room the the 40 Lbs that comes with , but the company does give you extra 20lbs and that is pretty generous.

That's crazy/awesome if you are even able to consider a 60 lb weighted vest at your weight. I'm a 5'6" avg/small frame male, and this fits me perfectly fine, not to wide or anything. It's adjustable enough (front to back/top to bottom) that I think it would work for virtually any body type. As far as the width, it fits pretty close to the sides of my head as I pull it on/off, so I don't think width would be an issue for anyone.

Hey Carla I bought the vest and have loved it. The weights are removable and the straps allow for adjusting and a tight fit. I am a guy, but Im sure that the vest would work for a women. I have seen vests designed specifically for women and their anatomical needs though also and believe ZFOsports does have a gender specific vest. Hope this was helpful

You should be fine, but if you have narrow shoulders don't plan on doing any over head lifts with this vest. The vest is very much adjustable. I out-weigh you by 50lbs, but I'm only 5'8.

I believe it's listed as "one size fits most"...........I am 5'10" 195. Fits fine with quite a lot of adjustable straps. Unless you are quite large, you shouldn't have an issue with it.

Yes, the vest has a neoprene waist and velcro across the entire width. This will certainly appear "smaller" on you than on me (I am 5'4" and 130lbs.), but it will do the job of putting 10 pound of well distributed weight on your chest and back. (I have four of these now, each on stationed in a city I visit frequently. For me it really is that good.)

My mother (94 yrs of age) is 5'2" and weighs 120 lbs. and it seems to fit her well. It is a bit more compact and I think it's a little easier to fit through tighter spaces. Pretty standard other than size.

I cannot give you exact measurements, but as an example I am 6'1" and weigh 215 lbs. I wanted a loose vest to comfortably carry my video, audio and photo gear, so I got a XXXL. I could probably wear a XL. I bought one for a videographer that is male, 5'10, 150 lbs = XL and another for a sound person, female, 5'7, 140 lbs = L. I've been using mine for several years in all kinds of conditions and no problems.

Your height and weight is more important than your age, I'm 5' 10" & 210 pounds, but I think this vest might fit someone as small as 5' 6" and 130 pounds. Better to get an actual answer from someone with a small frame. Good luck!

The vest has many adjustable straps all over it for just about any size person. When I shop for shirts I have to get a mans XL. This vest easily adjusted to my size and still had a lot of room to expand and still be comfortable. With all the velcro points and adjustable straps on it, I'd say you couldn't go wrong with it.

I guess it depends on your size. I am a 5'1" female about 125 pounds. This poncho hits me about mid calf. That is without the extra approximate 12" you can add by unsnapping the back side of the poncho. I am happy with mine - it's very waterproof!

Yes, it is perfect for women. I am 5'7" and it fits me perfectly. Rides comfortably on my hips and the shoulder straps over the chest works good. Tho I am not large chested, it may be a bit more snug for someone larger in the chest area. I love my pack!

I'm 5'4" 120lbs, I have the 4". My waist is pretty tight, so that size works well for me. I wear mine for more posture support and posture reminders when lifting rather than injury protection.

I have about the same measurements as you about 120-123 lbs and the small fits just right. You could even put it really tight if you wanted to. Hope this helps.

I'm about 5'7" and it fits fine. It may go below your waist a little, but this isn't a go running type of vest weight. As long as you're using it for pull-ups, push-ups or something similar you should be fine.

I am 5'4'', 120lb. The medium fits me well because I do not like tight clothes. S should be good for you.

Albert: I am 6'5" 230. I ordered the "XX large" and it fit great. The sides of the vest completely break apart and attach by Velcro, making it easy to increase/decrease circumference fit. My waist is 42" and there is PLENTY of real estate on the 2X to increase from 42" up. Great vest, tons of Molly straps. The only thing I would suggest is looking for a belt loop apparatus to connect the vest to your waist so when you sit in a vehicle the vest doesn't raise up. I found that annoying, but maybe that's just me. I let a family member use it for a while and they loved the vest and didn't know what I was talking about! Hope this helps

I too am a larger person 6' 4" I wear 54 coat so I had to make some modifications to mine. I went to my local fabric store bought strapping (military grade) for the sides and extend each one about 14 inches, more room and it allow for small growth periods over the winter times or layers of clothes I may be wearing. The vest is well made just not made for bigger people. If you know someone that can sew you can make this work well. The vest is well worth the money but they don't make it in our size even there largest is not made for average American man. It cost me about $20 extra cost of material and having it sewed. it also has large assortment of little bags. A bit of advice even though this vest has plenty of pockets to put stuff "don't fill it up". The weight this vest can carry can outweigh you. Be wise carry only that you need ammo, first aid, flash light, communication unit, monocular, small water packs a few food bars. If you plan to carry more stuff; Yo mama and the kitchen sink start working out with it on. Also this is not a plate carrier and provides not protection from getting shot.

Yes, it is adjustable so it will fit both male and female users. The vest includes forty individual one pound weight. The weights are removable so you can adjust the weight from the vest weight alone up to the vest plus forty pounds.
