Hand warmers, cargo pockets, and shell loops are just a few of the favorite features.

Orvis hunting vests range from the Plantation Vest, our premier warm-weather traditional vest, to the Dove Hunters Strap Vest, our most versatile vest for all seasons. The Plantation mens Vest keeps you cool in tight cover. Its Elephant Bush Poplin fabric is constructed of pure, 100 % cotton yarns woven just tightly enough to fend off the toughest bird cover, yet the material remains highly breathable. The special rear mesh panel ventilates air through the upper openings to keep you cooler than other vests with solid backs.

Our Strap Vests are simply the most versatile bird hunting vests available.

Breathable mesh bodies keep you cool on warm-weather hunts, while the minimalist design of our Strap hunting vests permits them to be worn comfortably over layers of cold-weather clothing. Patented Easy-Entry® pockets mean effortless, one-finger access to loose shells for quick reloads in the field. Check out the Open Prairie Strap Vest, Waxed Cotton Cloth Strap Vest, or Dove Hunter's Strap Vest to find the versatile vest that's right for you.

Looking for the highest quality, heaviest thorn-proof wool tweed hunting vests?

Look no further! The Alnwick Shooting Vest, woven for us in Scotland, allows great movement due to its 5-inch vented sides; it also offers scalloped pockets for easy access to shells for quick reloads, and a blood-proof game pouch that zips from both sides.

Traditional hunting vests

If you're looking for the ultimate in tradition, the aptly named Ultimate Upland Vest is constructed of Sahara cloth, our 9-oz., 100% cotton poplin fabric that's substantially heavier than the Covey Vest for thick cover. This vest is treated with an imperceptible dry-wax finish to repel water and help keep you dry on wet hunts. The blood-proof rear game bag is both front- and rear-loading for easy storage of birds, and zips open for simple cleaning.

Supple Egyptian lambskin is the material of choice for the Orvis International Clays Vest, the finest clays vest in the world. Deep, double-shell pockets are trimmed and bound in leather and riveted at stress points for lifetime wear and durability. Fully lined in soft sateen, these hunting vests glide over any shirt or sweater. There is a handy accessory pocket on the outside chest, a convenient valuables pocket inside, and a full-length shooting patch for fast, snag-free gun mounting.

Orvis is committed to offering sportsmen the best selection of hunting vests, shirts, pants, and outerwear available. Our shotguns and accessories are also just a click away.
