VestGuard body armour may not conform to standard clothing sizes and we recommend reviewing the below sizing guide before purchasing. We also strongly recommend completing the Size Submission Form at the bottom of this page or the forms on this page either before or after your purchase and our team will suggest the most suitable size for your needs.
Body Armour - Please consider the clothing that will be worn during typical duties under or over your body armour. Body armour is ergonomically designed to sit around your belly button +/- 1 inch. This is the ideal position to allow the wearer to sit or crouch whilst wearing body armour. Most of our body armour is adjustable around the waist and shoulders and will typically size up and down a size to meet your individual requirements.
Helmets - Take measurement from the forehead and extend the tape all the way around your head

Frequently Asked Sizing Questions
Q. How do I know what size I am?
A. You will need a tape measure and our sizing table. Measure around the largest circumference of your Chest and Waist/Stomach. Using these two measurements identify the sizes of both on the sizing table and then select the highest of the two. This will be the most suitable size to fit your body shape. We suggest completing the Size Submission Form to ensure the best size is recommended to match your measurements.
Q. What height does the vest fit?
A. People are all different shapes and sizes and body armour works differently between overt and covert styles. If you are between 5'8" and 6'1" our standard armour should be suitable to fit your body. If you have a shorter or longer upper body than usual please contact us to discuss which size is most suitable for you.
Q. Do you supply female sizes?
A. All of our NIJ level II(2), NIJ level IIIA(3A) and Home Office HO1 KR1 SP1 armour are made from very flexible and thin layers which contour and fit the body shape of both our male and female customers.

A. We will always do our very best to supply the perfect size first time. If you feel you do not have the right size please contact us to discuss how we can assist you.
