"It's The Best Photography Vest
Available For Sale, Anywhere!"
Me and my new Vested Interest Photo Vest - McGuire AFB - May 2007
Although I've always thought photo vests looked
cool, when I first got into photography back in the late 1970s, I decided
against buying one.
For one thing, most commercially made vests only come in standard sizes of S-M-L or perhaps XL, and most pre-made vests come with standard sized pockets that don't expand very well to fit real world photo equipment. As a result, most photography vests make the wearer look "Artsy", but they don't provide much in the way of real usefulness.
The Vest that I finally bought, is different.
Many years ago, I happened to be thumbing through the back pages of Popular
Photography magazine when one of the ads caught my eye. The ad was from a
small Texas company called "THE VESTED INTEREST". What appealed to me
most about "VI", was that they offered photography vests in custom made sizes and designs.
As a dimensionally challenged individual, buying off the rack garments most times doesn't work for me. So, having a custom sized vest sounded like a good idea. But along with that, what I really needed was a Photo Vest that securely carried my expensive photo gear. And, Oh By The Way... Yes, I still wanted to look cool too!

Well, to make a long story very short, somewhere around 1990, I ended up buying
a custom made Photo Vest from The Vested Interest and I've been happily using it for
nearly 20 years.
New Technology
With the advent of digital photography however, all of my photo equipment changed over night and the photo vest that I've come to rely on for all these years, needed some updating too.
Bigger, longer lenses meant that some of the old vest's pockets were a little small and needed to be resized and shaped. Naturally, I went back to the Vested Interest Company for help.
Happily, the folks at The Vested Interest, were just as helpful as they were years before and they still offered the best custom made product around.
Quality
The Vested Interest is actually a division of a company called Storrie Parachute Works. So, naturally as a parachute manufacturer, their quality and attention to detail are top notch. Every photo vest is individually made to your size and design specifications. All vests are made of the highest quality Parachute Grade materials, and it goes without saying that the workmanship is outstanding. As a long time VI customer, I can attest that they don't abandon you after the sale either. If something isn't quite right with your vest even years later, they will fix it without any problems.

I
receive no money from in the Vested Interest Company. But when I find
a product that works, and when I find a company that offers superior service, I want to make sure everyone knows about it. So, if
you're thinking about buying a photo vest, why not treat yourself to the Best
Photo Vest Available For Sale, Anywhere.
If you call the company chances are the owner, John Storrie will answer the phone himself. You don't have to tell John that you saw this testimonial in order for you to get good service. Everyone gets the same care and attention that I have received. The quality is built into every product they sell.
