Denim, shirting and quilt batting
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend
I made the pocket much bigger and used webbing, instead of contrast fabric, for the chest strap. I also sewed the batting into the waist and shoulder straps, rather than stuffing them. This was way easier.

As drafted, the waist band is quite long. The ends almost meet, even without the webbing, on my 5yo. If you're making this for a young child, who can't manage buckles yet, I would lengthen the waistband piece a bit more and use velcro as a fastener. I would also use velcro for the chest strap. Then the child will be able to get it on and off themselves, which will give you more uninterrupted time to sew!
