    Youz guyz are too much! Thanks for the humor infused review. I’ve thought about getting one of these vests, but can’t seem to get off the fence and do it. Ni modo. I like having a lot of pockets, but I have to be really consistent about what I put in which pocket or I go thru that whole “feeling around for whatever I’m looking for, unzip a pocket, nope, not there, zip it up, repeat ad nauseam” process. Again, thanks for your take on it and the fun!

    Love your videos. I bought a ScotteVest in 2012 for a trip to Europe and I still use it, still looks good. Mine had a pocket for an iPod and one for an 🆔, at the time those pockets had a plastic that eventually cracked. I don’t think they make them like that anymore, it looks like they now use a mesh. But other than that , 12 years later is still going strong, so it’s worth every penny and it still has plenty “pockets”.

    They are also great for traveling on cheap airlines where only 1 personal item is free. It holds all the extras and things you need on the airplane.

    Oh, I was able to get the ladies "QUEST vest half price on April fools day. I had bought a jacket, and it was not large enough for me, when I loaded it up. So I used this opportunity to get a larger size. It had pockets on the outside of the vest, in addition to the handwarmer pockets. It was great for airline, train, taxi, and tourist travel! Great review!

    I have the SCOTTeVEST windbreaker and it was sooooo worth it. When you're worried about weight limits, problem solved. It has a hoodie, a pick pocket nightmare 🎉, and let's me be hands free with or without a back pack.

    Great vest. Good for security in the big cities ( I don’t like keeping my wallet/phone in my back pockets). But I travel light and try to keep those things in the inside pockets of my jackets/coats. Looks casual. ? Any plans to do the Camino Ingles? It’s such a short journey and good content. Would love to see that.

    Lainey, how tall are you and what size is your vest? Would you recommend getting a size S if you normally wear a small?

    • @DaysWeSpend
      @DaysWeSpend  Месяц назад

      I'm 5'1" and wearing a size small. If you want more space for stuff, you can size up. Or if you have a larger bust size. I'm fairly petite, so the small works great for me.

    I’m a huge fan of ScottEVest. I really dislike carrying a purse, I wear their Cargaux pants or vests as every day wear, not just when traveling. It becomes a habit so I always knows where I pack my edc items. I do agree that they have gotten overpriced in the past few years, but I’ve had my vest since 2016 and it’s held up very well. Get on their mailing list and watch for sales. It’s also advisable to upsize the vest.

    • @DaysWeSpend

      Pro tip: empty the pants pockets before security!
      Afterwards, redistribute items wherever.

    I was looking at these lots of years ago, but I just don't travel nearly enough to justify the cost. If I ever get to retire to Spain and have more ability to travel around Europe, I may reconsider.
    What do you do when you're going through security with all of your electronics in your pockets? Do you just put the full vest in a bin, or do you have to empty all the pockets first?

    • @DaysWeSpend
      @DaysWeSpend  Месяц назад +1

      Totally get that sentiment. For security, we put the full vest in a bin. It's way easier than emptying the pockets.
