I've used them and don't like them.... but that's me. When you try to fit through a door you can smack your gear into the walls- it took ALOT more training and I never got the hang of knowing where my gear was in proximity to my surroundings.

With a vest your gear is spread out and is logically placed- with the belt- unless you have suspenders- it's going to sag... plus if you ever do find yourself able to sit you aren't going to like the idea of your 70-200 2.8L smacking into the floor because it's on your left hip

BUT- get one and try it out What worked for me works for me- what works for you may / is something totally different.
