Hyperwear Hyper Vest Elite
Best low profile weighted vest for high intensity functional fitness athletes.
A masterclass in ergonomic design, this vest solves the biggest problem with weighted training: the bounce. By using a patented stretch fabric that hugs the torso, it stays secure during high-intensity movement. It is the rare option that feels like a piece of apparel rather than a bulky piece of equipment.
