Our story begins back in 2000, when Laura and Scott Jordan - our future Pocket entrepreneurs - realized the world of fashion was light years behind the ever-changing world of technology. Laura was tired of carrying all of Scott’s gadgets in her bags and Scott’s traditional pockets couldn’t carry everything he needed...and a man purse was out of the question. Scott had a brilliant idea: he would create a modified fisherman’s vest but with extra pockets, enough to hold all of his essentials but still stylish enough to wear out around town.
Those were the humble beginnings of SCOTTeVEST. The company has now evolved into an international business, with a full line of men’s and women’s vests, jackets, pullovers, hoodies, shirts, dresses, underwear, pajamas and pants; all designed to strategically hold and organize your personal belongings so whatever you need is always on hand.

I like the functionality of the hoodie, but it is a little large for me. Unfortunately, I received it just before a month long trip so I had to go with the size I purchased. It would be great if I could return it used for a partial credit or discount towards a smaller hoodie.

A little expensive , but I really like using this hoodie to carry my travel and touring tech, like my action camera and pocket camera and tablets. I can put the action camera on a selfie stick down in the inside tablet pocket with the handle sticking out and it is hidden but quickly accessible.

My husband loves this shirt! It looks great, washes great--my only problem is getting him to wear something else!

My boys appreciated having this ActiviTee--they all are runners or play pickelball and this shirt has worked well for them.
Alisha B.02/27/2023 , Texas
Easy web site to navigate. Product was as described. I ordered next size up to accommodate filling pockets. Product came in SEMI timely manner.
My complaint is with UPS. UPS lied when it said the package was "delivered". The driver even falsely recorded to whom he "allegedly" left the package with. That person's name has not been a UPS employee at that facility in over a year. The package showed up at the shipping address 3 days later after the initial "delivered" was sent to my e-mail! I learned the drivers lie so they get credit for "delivering" their packages.
My hope is this company will at least offer its customers a CHOICE about who we want to use.

I plan on traveling internationally soon. So, I started doing research into best clothing. I really like it, but I gave 4 stars instead of five because I am hoping that Scott e vest might be willing to make a vest out of 100% cotton. I really like wearing natural fibers instead of synthetic. I cannot wear it near a campfire because the material would melt.

Received and prep for my Europe trip, purchase at the Anniversary Sale 30% off, such a great ordeal for me! Just recently found this line, and falling in love with this company.

Karen S.02/21/2023 , California
I really like the 101-vest. My only suggestion is to watch sizing. My vest fit perfect, but since I was on the high end of a "small", there isn't a lot of room to fill all pickets and zip it up. Will order a medium to have the extra room. Otherwise, it is a nice vest. Light and not bulky which is exactly what I wanted.
Why SCOTTeVEST?
Looking for a handy travel vest. Did a google search and found what I was looking for.

I really like fit/cut of the vest for women. Hand pockets are nice and deep.
02/21/2023
I really love this product. It fit perfectly and it will definitely serve my purpose. I only paid for standard shipping but was pleasantly surprised that my package arrived in one week. THANK YOU! My only suggestion is this: My size was on the top end of women's small. It is a bit snug with full pockets. I would suggest ordering up a size, if you really want to use your pockets to the fullest and still zip it up. I would definitely order from this company again.

I'm getting stuck trying to process this order with the discount.
I gave the 'chat rep" my measurements, height (5'4") and weight (115 pounds) and was told I should order a medium. I was leaning towards a small, but didn't know how the sizes ran. The medium was way too big. Am waiting for the exchange.

I bought this vest because of the pockets. When we travel overseas I like to have my passport and VISA close to me; away from pickpockets. I was unsure of the size I should order. I'm always a small, but you never know how the sizes run. I am 5'4" and weigh 115 pounds. The representative told me I should order a medium and it was way too big. Now I am waiting for the exchange, which I hope comes soon.

8-pockets? After receiving the pair of slacks, we loved the fit and the cut; however we began looking at all the pockets and could only locate 6. The so-called "coin pockets" are nothing more than slits which if you did happen to put any coins there, they will not stay there for long as they are only a slit and you'd lose them for sure.
Daniel R.02/18/2023 , New Jersey
Customer for years. Never had an issue so I cant speak on that. Considering how well the web site works, and how personal Scott takes his product, I can't fathom an issue existing.
Why SCOTTeVEST?
Years ago, I saw a hoodie on ThinkGeek but wanted it in cotton. I found that right on the SCOTTeVest website. I wanted all the pockets and I got them.
Improvement
By changing the designs every few years to reflect the current tech - which you already do.
Satisfied
Besides the ability to put an entire laptop in an inside pocket of a hoodie? Comfort and durability. Particularly the durability - I’ve worn my hoodie to several different states, a couple different countries, and almost everyday 5-6 months out of the year, and it’s still kicking!
New Products
This is very specific - in the old hoodie design, there were magnetic closures for the front pockets and a stretch band on the right side pocket. I miss those.
02/18/2023
I bought the first version of this hoodie back in 04. After all these years, I finally got the new version - even though the older one is still fine. Quality has always been top notch - you can beat these things up and they will last. Whatever you need to carry with you, this hoodie can handle. The new iPad pockets are massive. The hood is spacious, soft, and doesn’t make you look like a garden gnome. The thumb holes are amazing - it’s like having fingerless gloves on you all the time. I can not recommend this hoodie enough. It’s my favorite hoodie and I will always have one.
James R.02/18/2023 , Florida
Any of the products are actually better than described. This is my fourth item, only needed because this trip is to warmer weather.
The best reason to buy any of these products is that they hold so much, and organize it. I can breeze through TSA by just taking off my coat, and still have every device and chargers, cash, ID, snacks and food AND MORE at hand at all times. This saves a carry on bag. Brilliant and valuable idea.

This is the fourth item I have purchased from Scottevest. All are better than expected/advertised. True to size and WELL manufactured. I purchased my first piece in order to avoid baggage problems at airports. I can put so many things in Scottevest coats that I can reduce my carry ons, carry more, and breeze through TSA -- but the best is that everything is organized and at hand. When I bought my first coat, friends scoffed. But after a few international trips, they ask if I can carry things for them because their expensive designer pieces fall short. I needed Tropiformer for warmer climes.

I rarely pay $99 for a pair of shorts, these are worth it. Uniquely designed for safely carrying all the items I need while sight seeing on my vacation. Very well made, excellent materials, and fit is perfect. I called to find out rise ( I hate low rise pants), a bit over 11” front rise: great, not too high. After my first pair, I now have three pair.
Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
