BodyShield V4 External Vest Carrier

How do I know which size to order???  Order the size you would typically order in a men's shirt.  The length of Regular, Tall, etc... is dependent on the length of your vest panels.  To be sure you ordered the right size on-line, e-mail your vest panel measurements to us at: sales@balcouniform.com   Use the Vest Panel Measurement form found on our website: VEST PANEL MEASUREMENT SHEET, and we will verify that your size is correct.  We recommend submitting the order and emailing the measurement form within a few minutes of each other.  After review, we may adjust your size on the order to make sure the carrier fits correctly.

The updated BodyShield External Vest Carrier V4 allows you to wear a ballistic vest over your uniform for maximum comfort and accessibility while remaining virtually invisible to the untrained eye. The enhanced side closure system of the V4 allows for more comfortable wear and easy on and off.  

The durable battle-tested fabric features UVF 50 protection and anti-microbial technology in the lining. Adding customizable pouches and molles to your vest redistributes weight from your duty belt.
