Protection level NIJ IIIA
The IIIA level according to NIJ-standard is pretty much the lowest used in military and LE applications these days, but also the highest level that can be achieved with soft materials. NIJ IIIA is commonly used in bullet-resistant vests worn underneath clothing as well as flak vests.
NIJ IIIA stops the following threats (list not exhaustive):
- .22LR (rimfire pistols and rifles)
- .44 Magnum SJHP
- 9x19mm FMJ (pistols and submachine guns)
- Fragmentation and ricochets.

Size info
The vest is designed to be worn over an undershirt below all other clothes. The fit is tight. Don't choose a too large size: it may be loose on you or restrict movement. Especially a shorter person should not pick a tall vest: the bottom edge of the panel may hit your thighs and the top can dig into your throat.
When reading the table, focus on being in the right range around the chest and ensure you're tall enough. If you're between two sizes, pick the one with the more suitable length.
