Ferdinand:

I've tried them all and the Banana Republic is my favorite - expecially
since there is an outlet place near here (Oops!) where you can sometimes
find them for $19.95!  The last time they had them I bought four.  The
arrangement of pockets is more convenient.  The inside pockets give you a
place for passport and money.  I don't understand anybody making a
photojournalist vest without snap epaulettes on the shoulders.  The
expensive Nikon vest doesn't have them.  Tina
