I have been wearing my orange vest that I have to wear for work. Unfortunately it is too small for me especially with layers. It also has a lot of velcro that is noisy and often times, the pockets open up and my gear falls out while bending over and while hiking. Can anyone recommend an orange vest for someone who is 6’5” 250lbs. I usually wear XL-Tall clothing. Also, the orange hat I bought for a few dollars at walmart is loose and really flimsy. If I had a dollar for every time the dumb thing gets left hanging on a limb. Thanks!

Become a Tennessee Vols fan, we all have lots of orange. In all seriousness I bought a nice vest off Ebay that had tie strings instead of Velcro
 
I’ve been using a cabelas vest for years now. I generally don’t like cabela’s stuff.
 
Ya I checked cabelas but they do t have any big a tall vests

I like GameHide or Predator camo-blaze. They’re really good breakup patterns, and high quality clothing usually. I’m not picky about orange anyway, as it’s my favorite color and I’m more than happy to wear it under penalty of law lol. I generally hunt anything below 40 degrees in my camo-blaze parka from GameHide, and have not been disappointed with its breakup capability OR human visibility.

I have a lightweight poly vest in 2xl and a midweight fleece vest in 2xl that I layer over my outerwear. Oth are cabelas and both holding up well. I think I got them for less than $20/ea. From the bargain cave.
