Title: FS: Xtra-Hand Khumbu Vest from Vested Interest *SOLD*
Post by: Josh-H on June 21, 2012, 01:25:17 am

As new and used once. I cost me $425 (sell for $200) and Includes the following:

There are some standard options available when ordering any of the Vested Interest models and I chose to include some of them; the first of which was the Padded Hip Belt. The padded hip belt is simply an additional waist belt that is designed to help get some of the weight off the shoulders. It is both adjustable and removable.  I also included the optional shoulder pads.

I cannot take credit for the following modification to the vest that was first devised and implemented by Art Morris who runs the website Birds as Art. Art also has an extensive article on is website that is well worth a read. Although Art chose to use the Magnum as the base for his vest (I used the Khumbu) the alterations applied are the same. This modification is the inclusion of a bright orange handle so that I know where to safely grab the vest to lift it up and put it on when its full of camera gear. The handle is stitched into the actual frame of the vest to hold the full weight and is the safest place to pick up a fully loaded vest.

I purchased the vest with the idea I would use it on hikes. But have found I just don't use it and need to clear out some space in my cupboard.
