Using this Varanus tactical vest is straightforward. First, adjust the 4 - point adjustable vest cover to fit you comfortably. The mesh spacer lining inside will keep you cool. You can attach various items to the MOLLE webbing and pocket system on the front and back. If you need extra protection, insert Level III, III + or level IV ballistic plates into the front and back pockets. When it comes to maintenance, keep the vest clean and dry. Avoid exposing it to extreme heat or chemicals. Also, check the MOLLE webbing, drag strap and pockets regularly for any signs of wear. Remember, due to export regulations, this product can only be sold within North America. If you're from outside North America and interested in the ballistic plates, use the request a quote feature.
