Okay, so I've been using this CLC safety vest and rain set for a while now, and here's the real tea ☕️.
First off, the durability? *Chef's kiss*. Survived 3 years of Alaskan fishing trips without turning into a soggy mess. The PVC material is thicker than my last relationship’s plot twists.
BUT – sizing is whack. Ordered what should’ve been roomy based on charts, ended up looking like shrink-wrapped salmon. Pro tip: SIZE UP (unless you enjoy feeling like a stuffed sausage).
The snaps? Cute in theory, leaky in practice. Got drenched biking home – now I know why fishermen wear these (you’re sitting still!). Sweat situation’s real too – turns into a personal sauna if you move around.
Surprise MVP? Those elastic cuffs! Actually keep water out when you’re not doing cardio in them. Pockets fit my entire existence (phone+keys+emergency snacks).
Final verdict: 7/10 – amazing for stationary wetness protection, terrible for active use unless you enjoy swimwear testing.
