I like the pocket arrangement of the Domke better. I've worn out several
of them over the years. The payment for the soft cloth that's so
comfortable on the Domke is less durability. The Safari looks like it
would have the same problem. Domke have more open mesh than the Safari
as well so I think they are cooler in hot weather.
I'd love to get a look at Portabrace's offering, but have never seen one
except on some pro rushing by. So have never had a chance to really look
it over. It looks to be heavier built than these others. Might take
longer to wear out. Since it's built for ENG and video, it would be a
little closer to the needs of sound recording I think.
I should really design and build a custom one just like I'd like. That's
probably the only way to get the perfect vest.
