Description

*Note* Some of the Large (106-116cm) flak jackets have a different collar with hook & loop adjustment + the front pouch also has no blood type window. + hook & loop side adjustment (instead of clips) with an internal cumber-band. See the last 2 images for an example. Some size Large vests are formatted the same as the Medium. 

This genuine issue jacket is the desert variant of our French CE camo flak vest. The ballistic padding has been removed from this vest, lowering the vests shrapnel resistant properties, but making it noticeably lighter (from 2.8kg to 0.9kg). For paintball and airsoft games, the quality material still negates pain from enemy projectiles and allows for more maneuverability.

This flak vest has a pocket on the back and front for ceramic plates to be inserted (not included) for added protection. A pouch sits at the front for general utility items, and a window is sewn to that, to display your blood type with a paper card (not included).

Features:

  • Blood type display window
  • Front facing utility pocket
  • Front and back pockets for ceramic plates
  • Over-sized collar for neck protection
  • Zip collar for adding protective pads
  • DCE (Desert Central European) Camo


Sizing: The sizes for these are the maximum adjustment measured around the chest, just under your armpits. The sides adjust down roughly by 9cm  
Pattern:
 DCE Camo (Desert Central European)

Amazing quality

Vest came in pristine condition with all blood type cards and its manual. The vest itself looks a bit weird and floppy without the inserts but overall still a nice piece.

Amazing Quality, Alright Vest

My vest came basically brand new, featuring both the blood type cards and the handbook that came with the vest (stored in a small velcro pocket in the inner back). The camouflage is both great to look at and very effective, but I would only suggest the vest if you are purchasing for a collector piece. If you want to use this vest for skirmish sports, I can only suggest it for an impression kit. Without padding the vest offers minimal protection and looks pretty silly on you. It is also very difficult to intergrate/use load bearing gear with it, due to the very large size. For the price it is, not a bad choice for a Gulf War impression kit, Army and Outdoors does have plenty of both period and country correct gear if you want something to go with it.
