cheap construction mesh vest, orange hat. I don't want to get shot, animals don't seem to pay it any attention.

It doesn't take much to get to 400 inches, that is only a 20"x20" piece of material.

As for your Underoos, you can have them any color that you like
Be aware if your orange Underoo’s have Brown on them they’ll be considered “camo orange” and will not qualify in Colorado!

Anybody got a blaze orange vest that they really like? I've been using an uninsulated/unconstructed UA blaze vest with a couple of pockets in the front and kinda feel like its time for an upgrade. My mom could probably put in a new zipper for me but I'd like something a bit more substantial. I've seen Sitka and KUIU offerings and not terribly impressed with either, I suppose I could get used to it. I'm thinking oversized for layering, maybe a smidge of insulation but not much, but something that feels like it fits instead of hangs on me would be appreciated. A pocket for a phone and reading glasses and safety vests, a shell loop or two would be nice but not necessary, and a couple of hand pockets would be pretty handy I think. Anybody got such a thing?
Check out the Orvis Ultralight Blaze Vest or the MeatEater Beacon Vest. Both are light, have useful pockets, and fit well over layers without hanging loose.
