The San Carlos Hunting Vest is a scaled down version of the Quilomene Hunting Vest, but loaded with features, and designed for shorter hunts. Except for an optional two quart water system, and seven instead of nine cargo pockets, it has all of the same design features as its predecessor. Shell pockets are the same, gamebag is cut to the same size and the waist-belt shoulder strap system works the same. Differences - The San Carlos carries the water lower, mostly below the waist belt. The Quilomene Hunting Vest's hydration system sits atop the waist belt. Many of out Eastern hunters prefer this hunting vest as they do not require the larger water system or the cargo capacity of the Quilomene Hunting Vest. Shoulder Strap-Waist Belt Design Features: The shoulder strap - waist belt system is designed to adjust to provide a custom fit to hunters of all shapes and sizes. The unique waist belt and shoulder strap system allows a hunter to comfortably carry ample water and gear in seven cargo pockets, to accommodate even the most demanding hunts. The system is designed to carry the bulk of the hunting vest weight on the waist where it is more easily and comfortably carried. When fitting, the shoulder straps have two adjustments and the waist belt three that allow a hunter to get a truly custom and comfortable fit. When layering up in colder weather these adjustments allow a custom fit over heaver clothing making it the ideal all-season hunting vest. The waist belt has three adjustments: Front - An over center cam buckle and about 12 inches of belt allows room for added clothing later in the season. Thread the strap through the buckle, pull tight and throw the cam over to lock in place. Easy and effective. Side - There is an additional adjustment on the sides between the shell pockets and the gamebag. There is a length of belt webbing that comes off the rear edge of the shell pocket which goes through a D-ring on the edge of the gamebag and comes back to velcro to the back of the shell pocket. There is about 5" of adjustment on either side. This adjustment allows for different waist sizes and to prevent the shell pockets from creeping rearward when expanding over heavier clothing. Without these adjustments the pocket would tend to migrate to the back. The shoulder straps are adjustable front and back: Rear Strap - The rear strap is adjustable up and down to accommodate different back lengths. Raise the "Y" behind your neck to be as high as possible without cutting into your neck. Adjusted like this, the straps literally can not fall off your shoulders which is a problem for so many strap hunting vests. Front Straps - Adjust with an unobtrusive slide that is turned to the inside to stay away from gun stocks. Two Front Strap Anchors - The front straps velcro to the slides. There are two D-rings on the top edge of the shell pockets and the straps can be anchored to either. Just undo the velcro an unthread the strap and rethread on the other anchor to change positions. Capacites: Water Capacity - Crucial for both dog and hunter, especially in dry weather and long hunts. Keeping your dog well hydrated pays big dividends and prevents the danger of loosing a dog to dehydration. Important for the hunter as well! The San Carlos Vest has an optional 60 oz. water system (almost half a gallon) - fill it to whatever level you need for your hunt. Cargo Capacity: San Carlos Vest has 7 pockets - Two shell pockets, two wallet pockets, one hydration pocket, one cargo pocket on the back and, of course, the ample gamebag. The gamebag on this vest is cut to the same size as the Quilomene hunting vest. It is an easy load rear entry and is not an arm breaker like so many hunting vests. This one you can load your own birds with no problem.
