I received a Wing Works upland vest as a gift. Super build quality but kind of heavy. I think it will last two or three bird hunting lifetimes.
I have an Orvis strap vest that is much lighter that I really like and have used for the last 14 years. Much lighter weight and pretty good build quality. The Orvis vest is cheaper but not nearly as well made as the Wing Works.
Couple of things I like about the Orvis over the Wing Works. Orvis is lighter so cooler. Mesh carry bag in back so birds cool off. Lighter and softer material allow me to keep the vest on if I jump in the truck to move to a new area without having to take the vest off.
Double pockets up front allow me to seperate shells and gear a little easier.
Good luck with whatever you buy.
