Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the "Rip-stop" fabric better than standard mesh? +

Can this vest fit a tablet or large clipboard? +
The Viking 6165BK features a signature "Action Back" pocket. This is a large, full-width pouch on the rear of the vest specifically designed to store maps, blueprints, tablets, or large clipboards.
Does this vest have a D-ring access slot for a harness? +
Yes. It includes a reinforced opening in the upper back, allowing a fall protection harness D-ring to pass through while keeping the vest properly fitted.
