The vest
The circumference of the vest can be freely adjusted by means of a flexible Velcro fastener. The light (about 0.5 kg) and comfortable vest can also be used for posture support only. The Velcro fastener provides the vest with a wide range of stepless adjustment. The vest features reflectors.
Vest sizing
The Hölkkä training vest is intended for year-round use, which means that the dimensions account for the outdoor clothing to be worn under the vest. Measure your waist circumference around the diaphragm/upper waist (wearing a T-shirt, for example) and select the appropriate size:
- Select Small (equivalent to S/M), when your waist is 72–80 cm
- Select Large(equivalent to L/XL), when your waist is 81–105 cm
We also manufacture XS and 2XL sizes by order. For enquiries, please contact our customer service.
