I have two LARGE grandsons, ages 9 and 8. They are about the 150% on growth charts. Could not find a vest that fit them. Either too small or too big and would ride up. Found the Overton's Men's 4-Buckle Nylon Vest while doing an exhaustive search for a vest that would fit. Seemed to fit the bill. Back ordered, but arrived three weeks ahead of schedule.

My oldest grandson (the 9 year old) tried it out tubing today. His reaction "Perfect, it fits and doesn't ride up. Best of all its yellow, my favorite color."

Well constructed, fits great and the price is reasonable.
