Why Our Night Reflector Bands Are Detachable — and Built to Last

When safety meets quality, details matter. One of those details on our weight vests is the night reflector bands — and unlike cheap imitations, ours are fully detachable.

The Problem with Sewn-On Reflectors

Many low-cost weight vests have their reflective strips permanently sewn into the fabric. While that might seem convenient, it comes with a big downside: over time, those sewn-on reflectors crack, peel, or disintegrate from exposure to sweat, UV light, washing and weight vest handling, storing, rubbing on car seat, truck bed, etc. Once that happens, you’re left with a dull, non-reflective vest — or worse, one that compromises your nighttime visibility.

Why Detachable Is Better

Our detachable reflector bands are removable, replaceable, and built in the USA for longevity. That means:

  • If they ever wear out, you can easily swap them for a fresh pair.

  • You can wash your vest without damaging the reflective surface.

  • You can choose to wear them only when needed — for early morning runs, evening rucks, or nighttime training.

This modular design isn’t just about convenience; it’s about safety that lasts. Instead of throwing away a whole vest when reflectors fade, you simply replace the bands. It’s smarter, more sustainable, and keeps you visible for years of use.

Designed for Real Athletes

Our weight vests are used by serious athletes, military, and first responders — people who rely on their gear every day. The detachable reflector system is one more reason our vests outperform the cheap knockoffs. When your safety, comfort, and investment matter, details like this make all the difference.
