Speed Vest

SPEED-VEST (short)
The top of the line athletic weighted vest, trusted at the highest levels of sport.

The SPEED VEST™ (short) is LaceUp's premier weighted vest, purpose-built for running, jumping, and intense training. It's the training tool of choice across track and field, basketball, soccer, football, baseball, and volleyball and it's been used for years in the NFL Combine prep and NHL/NFL off-season training programs.

The thinnest, most secure fit available
A proprietary oversized stretch strapping system holds the vest securely to almost any torso, from young athletes to adults, while a double-lock belt system keeps it completely stable through the most explosive movement. The design still expands to accommodate full breathing under load, so intensity never means restriction.

Built to disappear on your body
With a single layer of soft FLX Weights, the SPEED-VEST is just ½ inch thick combined with thin, flexible padded shoulder straps, it won't inhibit your movement in any direction. Every weight pocket holds one weight securely in place, eliminating shifting during rigorous exercise, while a precise front-to-back weight balance keeps your center of gravity stable no matter how hard you're working.

Cool enough to push through anything
A high-visibility neon green, porous polyester shell lets air flow freely through the vest, helping you stay cooler so you can train harder for longer.

Goes wherever your training does
Built from fast-dry polyester mesh, the SPEED-VEST can be worn in the water as it's currently used by competitive swimmers and water polo players in training. It's also easy to maintain: hose it off, hand wash, or machine wash with the weights removed.

Adjustable to your training level
Supplied at 10 lbs. of FLX Weights, the SPEED-VEST adjusts from 1 to 10 lbs. by adding or removing ½ lb. inserts. You can scale the load to match exactly where you are in your training.
