use a Weaver, side-angled stance), or if you are getting

More
coverage, more protection.
As
we say in How
to Select Body Armor, a lot of people are worried
about whether their vest will stop the exotic, uncommon
pistol threats – but what's usually more important
is to cover MORE of your body against the COMMON pistol
threats.
By
all means get a Level
III-A for the uncommon threats, but the more important
factor is how well the vest covers YOUR body (and that
it is comfortable and concealable enough that you actually
wear it).
|
Perimeter Stitching
of Aramid Ballistic Panels
Besides
extra coverage, our Aramid vests are stitched
around the perimeter. This gives you superior
durability of the vest to prevent fraying with
use, and to better stop shots close to the edge
of the vest.
One
of our perimeter stitched Level III-A ballistic
panels stopped
a 9mm sub-machine-gun round in combat in the
Balkans, just 1" (3 cm). from the edge of the
vest (one of three bullets stopped by that panel!).

Durability and Protection

fit for your body. |
Comfort
is critical to wear Body Armor consistently (and if you don't
wear it, it's not doing any good). |

Level III-A Aramid - Standard vs. Premium Ballistic Option
The
Standard and Premium Aramid options both have the exact same
generous cut and construction, but the Standard is a slightly
thicker ballistic fiber. Both are NIJ-Certified Level III-A
with our exclusive perimeter stitching.
|
When
comparing weights...
Please
be aware that we quote ACTUAL weights for a normal size Medium
vest, ready to wear.
We do NOT play the artificial "weight loss" games
you may encounter elsewhere, such as quoting the weight of an
Small, Short, WITHOUT an outershell carrier.
We
recommend buying a vest based on weight AND coverage area, not
just weight.
All that
extra coverage does weigh slightly more. If you buy a vest based
just on weight you are likely losing coverage, or buying a vest
that just barely passes NIJ standards, instead of passing with
a significant over-performance.

Sweat-Wicking Undershirts
The special moisture wicking fabric wicks sweat away three
times faster than cotton. So sweat evaporates faster, and you stay a little
cooler -and a lot drier - under your vest. Plus, you don't have to wash
your vest as often...
