I received the Nomad Killing Time vest yesterday & here are my opinions on it. I unboxed it, done some adjusting to my fit & loaded it up with all my stuff. The vest is pretty dark & I may let it sit in the sun some before next turkey season with hopes to lighten up the dark camo some. It does have plenty storage room for anything most hunters would ever need. I really like the ability to use the stadium style seat to sit anywhere without the need for a tree. That comes in handy really well sometimes. That's one of the reasons why I bought it. I also like that it has a pocket for a thermocell, a must have down here in the south. Also the back seat seems pretty comfortable & to me is more comfortable than the Cabela's Tactical Tat'r 2. But it is the heaviest vest I have ever owned even heavier than the Cabela's Kickstand vest. But when I put it on it didn't feel as heavy as I expected it to especially considering how much it weighs. It seems to distribute the weight really well. Could be due to the wide shoulder straps. Overall I really like it & it looks to be a good quality vest that has had a lot of thought put into it. I won't be able to know for sure how well I will like it until next season. Hope this helps others in making the decision if this vest is one they would like. Here are some weight comparisons of some vests I own or have owned in the past according to my digital fish scales.
