How do I choose the right size running vest for a bounce-free fit?

{"type":"root","children":[{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":"Start by measuring the circumference of your chest while wearing the clothes you usually run in. Your running vest should fit snugly, so if you’re in between sizes, size down, as running vest materials can stretch slightly when damp from sweat."}]}]}

Can I use a trail running vest for both road running and ultramarathon events?

{"type":"root","children":[{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":"Yes, trail running vests are designed to feel comfortable and lightweight while having the capacity to carry everything you need for an ultramarathon.
