    Sizing and shape between the brands differs greatly. At 6'1" and 100kg I find Beretta vests to be too tall and thin - by the time i've found one with enough space around the shoulders, the rest is heading towards the knees. I've got a Browning Claybuster from GC that fits nicely and is marked a large (I'd normally be XL in most NZ gear.)
    If you are left eye dominant or shoot left shoulder you'll have more challenges as you'll need an ambi or l/h vest. I'm not sure what's up Auckland way, but Brocos in Tauranga has a reasonable range.
    Failing that there is someone sell ridgeline vests on TM, which could be a cheap way to get started. https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/marketpl...ing/3676012579
    I've also bought vest's from NICA shooting in the states which is a good option if you're confident about your sizing.
