Title: New vest wanted, good seat
Post by: Meleagris gallopavo on April 24, 2024, 01:44:19 PM
Looking for a new vest that has a good seat.  Can be minimalist.

Get you a Glenda Green Seat cushion with the inter-tube.  You'll ditch any other seat from that point on.  You can attach it to any vesy or just a belt loop

Was thinking about that.  How easy is it to attach?  Anyone had trouble keeping them inflated?

Attaching Glenda's innertube to a belt is super easy. Clip a carbineer to the seat's handle and then clip it to a belt loop. Attaching to a vest is a bit trickier, but if you or someone you know is halfway decent with a needle and thread you can easily sew on some attachment straps and clips or magnets to it.

Regarding durability, I've been using one of Glenda's seats for 3 years and only had to inflate it when I bought it three years ago. Be sure to "follow the research" and only inflate the tube about half way. It's much more comfortable that way compared to fully inflated. The cover she makes is very durable and puncture resistant. I've been tempted to put some Slime in the innertube for extra insurance, but I've been lazy and haven't done that yet.

Glenda Green seat and if you talk with her, she can add whatever you want so you can attach it to a belt or vest... She can add a carry shoulder strap or whatever...

Love my Grounded Brand vest, best part about it is the seat and seat magnet. Little on the heavier side though if that deters you (it is lighter than the alps vest I have but heavier than the ol tom gunslinger vest).

I've always been pretty happy with the seat cushion on my Alps Grandslam vest. It's not a minimalist vest though. I also have a Glenda Green seat and it is nice.
