Default RE: Favorite upland vest

[8D]being out here in Ca. where its usually warm, I went to a strap style vest over twenty years ago. first one was a more fabric type, think it was made by Black Sheep?
Black something or other?
I then got a Filson, plain jane no orange. But, I left it outside my room one dove opener after cleaning my birds, when I remembered, it was gone.
My good friend wanted another type of Filson, and gave me his Filson strap with the orange, for $20, been using it since, I throw in a boda bag for water(2litre) for the dog mainly, all my empties, and of course birds in the game bag.
I carry my calls, knife, choke tubes, cleaning rod(collapsible), hemostats in the right pocket and ammo in the left.
The first one I probably used for close to ten years, this one, now about seven. They're as rugged as all get out!
The filson burner must have had a customer service hangup, because their products, basically can't be beat, for durability at least!
If I were to purchase a new strap vest, I'd seriously consider the Quillomene!!!
