The Astral 4.0 is comfortable, light weight and perfect for women. The herfit is amazing

This is by far the best version of the Astral vest. The fit is amazing, it’s comfortable, and has storage for everything. The shoulder pocket is perfect for my Garmin inReach (a huge bonus for me!) and I can pack my food and gear where they are easily accessible. The perfect vest for the badass chick in your life!!

I have been using the Astral 3.0 for several years. I like everything except the curve over the bust. Being someone who is big busted the herfit curves just sit on the side of my breasts and aren’t comfortable. I like the angled bottom pockets so I haven’t tried the men’s Astral yet. I was hoping the 4.0 version would just have a straight lines on the front instead of the curved.

FINALLY found an adjustable vest for large boobs and ultra distances

I love the capacity, both in terms of the bladder and the overall storage. The only caveat is the middle, small mesh stow pockets on the front… I cannot for the life of me figure out what these were meant for, but nothing I put in them stays. Nutrition, masks, etc… eventually stuff just gets jostled out, sometimes right away. The rest of the pockets are great but I wish I could find a way to make these ones functional.
