Performance Benefits
The MiR Pro Weighted Vest is ideal for taking bodyweight workouts and conditioning to the next level. Because the weights can be added in small 3LB increments, athletes can seamlessly progress from lighter loads to extreme resistance. It provides exceptional stability with its mid-chest belt and adjustable straps, meaning it will stay securely against your torso during dynamic movements like box jumps, step-ups, bear crawls, sit-ups, and short runs.
Important Note: The MiR Pro Weighted Vest is intended strictly as a fitness accessory and should NEVER be used as body armor.
Maintenance and Care
To ensure the longevity of your MiR Pro Weighted Vest, remove all solid iron weights before cleaning. Hand wash or spot clean the 1200D nylon vest using a mild detergent and water, then let it air dry completely. Do not machine wash or tumble dry, as the heavy-duty materials and velcro closures can be damaged. Keep the velcro pockets free of lint and debris so they maintain their secure hold on the iron weights. Store the vest in a cool, dry place when not in use.
