Default Hunter Safety System - Safety Harness Vest

Anyone else have any trouble with the "zippers" on their Hunter Safety System Safety Vests? I bought the mesh version, paid $140.00 for the vest and after only 3 years, both zippers either dont work or came apart.

Default Like they say about mechanical things

Some break; some don't break. And some do it before their time.

And if you think you're absolutely safe with any mechanical device, you're kidding yourself. Flaws are part of mechanics.

Smile REf: HSS Vest

For whatever it's worth, you might look into a Summit Seat-o-the-Pants safety harness - they are significantly lighter and less complex than the HSS, not to mention cheaper. No zippers, just a buckle system that works real well. Check out the reviews.
