Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Side Hustle WhatVest and the Full Send WhatVest?

There are a few differences between the two WhatVest models. The Side Hustle is a slimmer volume design with nine pockets total and approx. 15L of storage depending on size. The Full Send WhatVest has eleven pockets total with more volume in the rear pockets for approx. 20L of storage capacity depending on size. The backpack compartment of the Full Send has two pockets located higher up— a fleece lined goggle pocket and an interior mesh pocket that allow you to distribute your gear more evenly. Both vests are hydration pack compatible, carry skis/snowboard, have radio clip webbing on the shoulders and have helmet carry loops.

Check out our detailed sizing chart to figure out what size you should order.

How does the hydration system work?

You can thread a hydration hose through the shoulders of any WhatVest.  OR, you can carry a collapsible water bottle in any of the pockets.

Can I wash my WhatVest?

Yes, we recommend a cold wash only when needed and hang dry. The more you wash it the more you will lose the water repellant features of the fabric. We recommend using this ReviveX Durable Water Repellant Spray to hold up the water resistant coating on the outer layer of your WhatVest.

Can I iron on patches to my vest?

NO, it won't work and you risk burning and melting the fabric. Your WhatVest will look like shit and you might cry. Best bet for adding a patch--You could use 6000 Epoxy to glue or try to sew it on.

Side Hustle Custom WhatVest Order Form
Grom (Kids) Custom WhatVest Order Form 

Additional custom requests beyond what is included in the custom options will be quoted and invoiced.  Custom orders typically take 2-4 weeks to complete depending on time of year.

Does the WhatVest have an airbag system?

No. 

Is the WhatVest waterproof?

All WhatVest products are water resistant with varying levels of DWR water repellant coating on the fabric. This is not the same as being fully waterproof but our garments work pretty damn good in most winter zones.

Do you offer Expedited Shipping?

Nope. We ain't Amazon folks. We'll get your package shipped out as soon as possible but some things are out of our control (like what happens behind the curtain at UPS and USPS) and we absolutely don't guarantee you'll get your package two days after you order it.

Can you ship via UPS?

Yes, but only if you special request this.  Some addresses do not get packages delivered via USPS so we understand. When checking out, leave us a message requesting UPS shipment.
