I'm leaning (very so slightly) to getting this Amphipod Xinglet, Amphipod Xinglet? - independently top-rated for visibility and overall usability.

It won't be hot in the summer and it can fit over bulky winter clothes as well so it looks pretty versatile.
Hey, I own one of those. I use it more for running pre-dawn. The pictures are deceiving, it fits up on the chest, not full body -- but perhaps that's becuase I am 6', 46" chest. Actually, that good, it doesn't interfer with bottles or pockets. I have no issues with mine, although the plastic attachment gizmos seem pretty cheesy. Very lightweight, I am a Amphipod fan-boy.
