Y'all remember that lace safety vest that a cyclist was wearing a while back? Everyone sent it to me because #Lace .

I had no idea where it came from, but I loved it. Recently a vendor of them popped into my feed. I decided to try one to see if it was legit.

It's very nice. I'm not selling them, I'm not pushing them, I'm just saying if you like to lace in safety now you can....

I'm kind of impressed with the quality.

Me in the vest in front of a brick wall. It's slightly less fluorescent in the daylight but it's still a bright yellow. 

I'm a white middle aged women with brown hair and glasses. I'm stocky--as they say--and the XL fits me nicely zipped up.

The fluorescent yellow "lace safety" vest. It is a pretty decent machine lace with netting in bright yellow. It has a yellow sturdy zipper in the front. It has reflective gray tape over the shoulders and in 2 bands along the midriff.

It looks super yellow inside my house laying flat on my ottoman.

omg I love that!

Looking at it made me wish there were a much larger set of style options for high-viz vests

Update: it is no longer mine.

The site is https://lacesafetyvest.com/, should you be interested. I am not associated with them. Just pleased with it.

Might wear it to Sunday Lace for a laugh.

An impish calico cat has parked herself on my new lace safety vest and refuses to move. They are on the seat of a chair where I temporarily parked my lace.
