The Mustang Industrial Mesh Vest in orange, size small/medium, is a Type III vest made for working in. It has mesh shoulders and large front pockets that close with Velcro, and side adjustments for dual sizing. It fits chests of 34 to 42 inches and wearers of 90 lb or more. Reflective tape totalling 32 square inches runs front and back, and Mustang says the vest is strength tested to 50 MPH.

Our take

Mesh shoulders keep the Mustang vest open and mobile across the upper body, and the side adjustments give it dual sizing. It covers chests of 34 to 42 inches and wearers from 90 lb up, so smaller people need a different vest.

From our buying guide

US rules count Coast Guard-approved jackets. One approved only to European or ISO standards doesn't meet the US carriage rules, however good it is.

Check before you buy:

  • The approval number is on the label, and the jacket fits you as that label marks.
  • You're getting the US version, since some jackets are sold in two.
  • If it's Level 50, it only counts toward what you must carry when it's worn.
