noxgear Tracer2 - Multicolor Illuminated, Reflective Vest for Running or Cycling (Rechargeable, Waterproof)

Ive only done a half dozen runs in this so far but I love the peace of mind of being more visible during early or late runs without wearing a headlamp or keeping my phone in my hand, risking killing the battery while out. I am giving it three stars for durability because at this point, its an uknown for me. Im hoping it stands up to my sweat. As for weight & comfort: its definitely lightweight and I barely know its there; and where I dont its not constricting or uncomfortable in anyway. Its easy to slip on, has several light modes I just know Im being seen during those neighborhood runs, where Id rather be on the asphalt than the concrete sidewalk. As of this writing mid-January 2022, I would definitely recommend this. I know there are other options for less money but I like the light-up function of this versus those that just reflect. Im not an avid runner at this point, so if I keep up with the running that might impact how I view this product.

Love it. Love the colors and brightness of it. Many people complement my light. I feel safe because I’m visible. I still need a small clip on light to show me the ground. Overall I like it a lot!

I’ve been considering purchasing one for a while but didn’t know if it was worth the cost…IT IS! The vest was easy to adjust to my size and doesn’t bounce or move when running. It’s bright and has many color options. I’ve noticed drivers seeing me from further away than using a regular reflective vest. Definitely recommend for runners

When I put on my back it was very light.

I am gushing about, and showing off, the Tracer360 to my riding buddies, friends and co-workers. This product is absolutely amazing. Their customer service is equally amazing. Cycling is my passion and something I greatly enjoy doing. Days are getting shorter and I dont get out of work early enough to finish my rides before nightfall. This product is the final piece to my night safety gear. I went on a group ride with it recently and one of the guys I ride with has already said that he is getting one. Everyone else who has seen it thinks that it is fantastic. Ive had cars slow down as they pass me while Im out riding to get a better look and one car passenger yelled out her window, I LOVE your lights! I am recommending it to every person I know who either cycles or jogs past sundown. This is the best product Ive ever purchased for my cycling safety (and Ive purchased a lot). I have absolutely NO regrets about my purchase (sometimes eyebrows go up when I mention the price, but it is definitely worth every penny). It is exactly what Ive been looking for to enhance my visibility when I ride after sundown. I hope Noxgear is in business a good long time because when this one breaks, if the warranty has expired, Im going to need to purchase another. I would make one suggestion (and I did when I contacted them). I require their product so that I can stay active as the days get shorter, so I dont mind having to buy batteries when it requires, but some people have mentioned that they dont like the idea of the added cost. I recommend that they consider making it rechargeable either via USB or provide an AC charger. (And that was my two cents.) On top of the incredible piece of safety equipment theyve manufactured and the fact that theyve made safety cool, their customer service is truly customer-centric. I originally ordered a Large/Medium, but it turned out to be too large and the light tubes hung too low and too loose. I contacted Noxgear from the Contact the seller button, explained my predicament and requested to exchange my Large/Medium for a Small. The answer was yes, no questions asked. Now THAT is Customer Service. All the best to Noxgear.

I ordered this as I often walk in the dark--super early in the morning or later at night. I have dark coats and a black dog--we are not easily noticed. I always felt a bit nervous that cars wouldnt see us when I was walking in my neighborhood, so for the safety of myself and the drivers, I came across this and thought it would be a good safety feature. I love it! It works exactly as expected. I ordered the large, but could have sized down. I wanted something that would work well with my large winter coats, but even with that the vest would fall off my shoulders. Ive just added a cord wrap to it to hold it together at the chest, and that solves the problem perfectly. I dont mind it being bigger right now either as my husband will use it as well and it fits him without the cord wrap. However, if I were to run with it, I may order the smaller version. Highly recommend. Looking into getting the dog harness as well for when we are at our cabin in the woods--our dog loves to adventure but this would help us see where shes at in the dark!

Perfect easy solution for night rides, runs or walks.

I feel much safer walking and running in the evenings with the Tracer 360. I am 5 feet, 118 lbs, and wear a size 4 shirt, and the small fits me okay with a modification. I like to wear the belt snug on my chest., tucked right under The Girls. Initially, the tube on the lower right side kind of stuck out and grazed my right elbows, but I modified it by tying a rubber band in the back, about 3-4 inches below the on-off switch, to fasten the two tubes together. This holds the tubes closer to my body so they dont keep whacking my arms. Ive only had it a few weeks, but it feels like the construction is sturdy. It certainly is bright! I have noticed that cars slow down and steer well clear of me on out suburban streets! Other walkers and runners have asked where they can get one. I do find the flashing patterns a little distracting, so I use the solid colors, which do not bother me. When I run, the weight of the unit on the back initially bothers me, but I stop noticing it after awhile, and I think a little discomfort is well worth the safety trade off. However, I have not yet worn it on a run longer than 4 miles since I am currently recovering from an injury. I am curious to see how I will feel after 10 miles. If it bothers me on longer runs, I will update my review to reflect that. But again, I think the safety it provides is well worth a little discomfort. I know there are cheaper versions out there. Is it worth it to have all the different colors and flashing patterns? For me, I think so. In well-lit, low traffic residential areas, I use a solid, milder color, like blue or green. In areas that are darker but have fast-moving traffic, I will use the flashiest of the flash patterns, which I find too distracting to use all the time. I also like to use the flash patterns or more unusual colors (like pink) when there are competing lights from buildings, signs, cars, etc. So I like having the options for different environments. But if you run in the same kind of conditions all the time, then you may be able to get away with a cheaper competitive brand. Final note: my Asian-American mother -- who *ALWAYS* thinks I have paid too much for anything I purchase unless it is on 80% off clearance and *then* haggled to get another 5% off -- thinks that the Tracer360 is money well spent, and now wants me to buy one for her. And thats pretty much the highest praise I can give any product.

Perfect product, except the light should hang lower on the body. I say this because it is covered by my running pack so I cant wear both together which defeats the purpose when running long distances at night. Otherwise, the light stays in place and it is well-made.

Would recommend to anyone.
