Love my vest

I got this vest a few weeks ago and have adjusted the straps so it fits me perfectly. I am so happy with the weight of the vest and the durability is a bonus.

Such a nice looking vest

I got this vest and aesthetically the vest looked great. I opened it and immediately knew I'd made the right choice of vest to buy. I then put it on to wear and it was the perfect fit. I was so pleased because I've had a lot of problems with other vests in the past. Safeguard really helped me solve my problems.

Perfect for a policeman

I work with the police and decided to go out and buy my own vest rather than use a vest supplied from work and It's been great. I struggled with the old vests as they didn't fit my torso very nicely and gave me skin rashes, so I bought this vest from Safeguard and I was so happy with the outcome.

Really comfy and very flexible

This vest is great. The way in which it provides me with flexibility is just what I need. I have been in situations where I have needed high levels of flexibility and this vest provides me with that. Would recommend to anyone
