I’ll let you know when I use it

Excellent quality and price

I purchased this body armor for my boyfriend due to safety concerns about his new job.
He absolutely loves it! He says that it’s extremely comfortable, fits perfectly, and feels much safer at his work.
The graph/measurement table was very accurate in regards to proper fit. No return or resizing needed. We live in a southern state with high humidity, the vest does very well to not overheat him on outdoor patrols too!
Thank you!

Fantastic Vest

This vest is just what I needed. I went for this as I came across Safeguard thanks to a friend at work and everything he said was right. The vest I had previous to this really restricted my movement which was a big problem to me. This vest is very flexible and a lot more suitable for me which helps in so many ways when coming into contact with dangerous situations day to day.

My husband had been complaining about his vest for a long time so I decided to by him a new one, I rang Safeguard and the customer service team was very helpful, they helped me choose this vest. My husband was over the moon, he hasn't complained once about his new vest and loves how lightweight the vest is and the breath ability it offers.
