Vests   
WingWorks Upland Vests

The basic vest package at $135.00 includes two 32 oz plastic bottles to fit vest holsters, and your choice of shoulder harness styles. An optional 54 oz plastic bottle fitting the new gamebag accessory pocket is available in Accessories. We like our bottles and leave the world of bladders for others to explore.  Some of the shorter 50 oz bladders will fit in the accessory pocket if necessary.

The Vest Fit and Adjust  page covers fitting and ordering details, and Hunt Tech  goes over a few things we’ve done to personalize our vests. If you still have questions, please contact us. We will pursue each transaction with the goal of your satisfaction.

We have an industrial machine and can make some adjustments and alterations when necessary.

We really feel these are the toughest and best built upland vests available today.

WingWorks Upland Vests/Khaki

In a world of limited access, shrinking hunting opportunities and political correctness, it’s sometimes necessary to leave the world of camo and hunter orange behind and fly under the radar.  Khaki is about as neutral in the field as a solid color gets, and may even get one into a rough or wood pigeon shoot in the English countryside. Khaki definitely works well for any kind of pass shooting, turkey hunting, open country upland hunting and any sort of clays shooting.  The soft hand 1000 Cordura Plus exterior fabric is supplemented in some areas with a stiffer Cordura where needed.  We have a limited number of vests in Large and XLarge built entirely of this stiffer Khaki material.  These are available as an upgrade to a regular vest order below.

WingWorks Upland Vests/Hunter Orange                              

The Hunter Orange have outsold the Khaki vests so far, 5 to one.  Some states and hunters may require more orange on their vests, but this will satisfy most with about 160 square inches.  Lots of these have gone east to grouse and woodcock hunters, but out west they still out-sell the Khaki.  If it's not a blanket requirement in your state, Orange is required and sensible when bird hunting in certain game units during big game seasons, and often on state and federal refuges.  Tenmile Cloth Hunter Orange is surprisingly durable and stain resistant for a relatively light fabric, and it holds its color.  The soft hand 1000 Cordura Plus exterior fabric is supplemented in some areas with a stiffer Cordura where needed. It's the Khaki vest with Tenmile Cloth added.  We do offer the Hunter Orange vest with the stiffer Cordura fabric throughout as an upgrade in L and XL sizes below.

 


Sternum Strap Harness will keep shoulder straps secure, and adjusts loading like a backpack by pulling 1" straps down low.  Best all-round harness for serious multi-sport hunters, best for heavier loads, rugged terrain, easiest to adjust while hunting.

Standard Harness mimics the traditional strap vest harness, but adjusts in both front and back to fit different body types.  Adequate for lighter duty use, where regular adjustment isn't critical.  It has extra length for very tall hunters.

Important! Shell Pocket Measurement

  Please check before ordering!    

If you're in-between sizes, or just want a more precise check on how a vest size will fit,  this measurment will tell where the shell pockets will lay out on the waist.  Shell pockets should lay out about where six gun holsters would, roughly under the shoulders on each side.  Too far forward, and the hunter will walk into them, too far back makes for awkward reaching for shells.  Our foam waist belt usually rides about centered at navel level, with fixed shell pockets for each size located towards each end of the belt.  Wearing your most typical hunting clothes,stretch a tape around the small of your back at navel level, and place one end roughly under the left shoulder line (or from one outside pants seam around the back to the other outside pants seam), the other roughly under the right shoulder line, you will get a center to center measurement for locating the shell pockets.  This will give  a number to establish shell pocket center placement on each side to compare with the four sizes we offer.  The center to center  shell pocket measurements in each size are M/18.25", L/20.5", XL/26", and XXL/30.5".  The shell pockets are 5" wide.  The optimum pocket center is under the shoulder line or slightly forward.  If the back measurement is right, go with it, and don't worry about a belly.  The belts in front are plenty long to accomodate.  We ask that you include weight, height and waist in the order box to help us get you the right vest.
