Guide / 01
Measure the front phone compartment
The zipped chest pocket measures 20cm high by 13cm wide. Include your phone case and any attached accessory when checking the dimensions.
Pocket shape and opening can affect real-world fit. If your phone is close to the measurements, confirm details on the Amazon listing before ordering.
Guide / 02
Separate small items from your phone
Two shoulder pockets measure 10 × 5cm each and provide separate zipped storage for compact items. Keep keys or other hard objects out of the main phone pocket.
The waist belt adjusts from 26 to 40 inches. Try the vest over your planned layers and check that the chest pocket sits comfortably.
Guide / 03
Know the weather limitation
The front pocket is water-resistant, not waterproof. Use additional phone protection for heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.
This vest is for a phone and small essentials, not a full hydration or trail pack. Plan other equipment separately.
