It's the best light working coat I've ever had. The no slip shoulder patches are great. And despite wearing it frequently, it shows almost no wear. The closest thing to it might be an Army M-65 field jacket. They have a similar style but the Domke is more refined. I will eventualy replace mine with a M-65. Ferdinand, In about 12 years or so, I have worn out several Domke vests. I "live in one" everyday at the university and think they are the finest of the working photo vests. I have been using them since about 1987. They seem to be a little lighter and cooler to work in than my friends Banana Republic vest. Mark
