How to Measure
Chest Measurement
Measure around the fullest part of your chest, under your arms and over your shoulder blades. Keep the tape measure level and snug but not tight.
Waist Measurement
Measure around your natural waistline, which is typically the narrowest part of your torso, above your hip bones.
Weight Consideration
Use weight as a general reference along with your measurements. Body composition varies, so measurements are more accurate.
Fit Tips
Perfect Fit Guidelines
- • Vest should fit snugly but allow for full range of motion
- • Consider thickness of clothing worn underneath
- • All vests feature adjustable straps for fine-tuning
- • When in doubt, size up for comfort during extended wear
- • Ensure proper coverage of vital areas
Professional Tip: If you're between sizes, consider your primary use case. Choose the larger size for comfort during long shifts, or the smaller size for a more secure tactical fit.
