i think its just to different color schemes. one with black straps and one with white (with jsut a little difference in the actual picture).

I like the zipper placement on that vest better than the Non-CGA SWAT vest, I was gonna get one, but, found the side zip a major pain in the ass when trying it on at the shop and didn't feel like wrestling with it all season. So I opted for one without a zip at all.

notice that one has a logo/tag or something inside. maybe one of them is a limited release version?

Holy 70's!

I hate the pull overs, If you wear a wetsuit etc, the pullovers are much harder to deal with.

Anyone else find a side-zip vest a pain in the arse to deal with? Im wondering cause I was bummed about having to choose another vest. Was it just me or what?Is it something that gets easier when it breaks in? To me it felt like the side-zip would have been easier to deal with if it was angled or something.

I the guys at helim an e-mail with the pic from their website...

This is what I recieved back

that pic is of the prototype - all stock except a few salesman samples is in the NEW colorway, more purple than carolina blue. The way I can tell is the logo at bottom front on the prototypes was plastic, the production is rubber.

Sorry for any confusion.

Im not clear on that, but ok....
