Return of the Baller Vest?

[Horton]

Just letting you guys know that I am working on bringing back the Eagle Baller Vest. Who wants one?

Um. Maybe? I'd have to see one/try one on in person to know. They look cool though.

Based upon which standard Eagle vest? Some may prefer the ones with the thicker flotation, similar to the Platinum.

[RazorRoss3]

I am in the same "see one, try one on" spot. I don't care much about floating because I simply don't and have accepted that but a good fit while I'm skiing is important.

I was going to order a vest this winter, so its perfect timing for me. How do the sizes run? Do you have a chart?

[MuskokaKy]

Id be interested. What eagle vest is that exactly? i can try and size one around here just to confirm. @Horton when do you think you will be rolling these out? In time for x-mas i hope!

[Horton]

Ok guys just looking to see interest. I think the vest could be any Eagle model you want. @Russell and I just need to wrap up a few things and we will see if we can make this happen.

Is it closed cell foam and size chart.

Coolio run an all black eagle right now. Lots mobility, not much float but that's ok.

@horton can a squeak of extra float be dumped in there without messing with mobility...I mean a squeak. That would be cool.

+2 on the extra floatyness

FYI - flotation of standard Eagle vests:

13mm flotation front and 20mm back (Eagle, Eagle 1, Platinum, & Team USA)

13mm flotation front and 13mm back (all other styles)

 

Are you guys looking for more than the 13mm / 20mm configuration? Eagle has done some custom vests with 20mm in the chest and back, with the torso areas still at 13mm.

(I have no idea what the USCG approved vest contains.)

Before this turns into more of a design conversion my part is just the logo.

Poo. I just got a new Eagle vest a month ago. I would have waited for one of these babies. Maybe I need two vests....

[Lieutenant Dan]

Looks like a nice Christmas present for myself. I'm interested.

@6balls I felt like the Eagle Platinum was a little bit smaller in the arm openings than the regular Eagle vest. I wanted to get the Platinum but the regular vest just felt better too me. I am pretty sure I am in a XXL at 6' 230lbs and I wear a 46" suit coat. When I drop to about 215 the XXL is a little big.

+1, light and thin are my criteria, oh and of course 'never pay retail'.

I skied in mine yesterday and it was pretty freaking awesome.

 

@DW no deals. Sorry.
