OSOE's Patrol Vest is one of OSOE's oldest designs, dating back over 15 years and developed by John for use by US military personnel. It combines OSOE's trademark bombproof construction with the natural advantages of a vest; we see common orders for these even today, when chest rigs are the hottest ticket around. Convenient to don and doff with OSOE's front fastex closure, these are able to be worn over cold weather gear, up-sized armor, drysuits and wetsuits, or almost any other requirement, thanks to the 36" of expandability. Its abrasion-resistant mesh base keeps you cooler, without allowing for hotspots to form and create uncomfortable pockets of sweat, which cause chafing. The vest is in contact with more of your body, and its larger surface area provides a more stable, movement-free foundation -- just like a good grip on a pistol. Because of this, we see them purchased commonly by airborne troopers and similar positions, where stability during dynamic movement, especially jumps, is absolutely key and non-negotiable. The Patrol Vest has four rows and four columns of PALS on either side, behind four Patrol Magazine Pouches. Like all of OSOE's gear, the Patrol Vest is backed by our lifetime guarantee -- the one guarantee you'll never need to use! Loadout: Each of the 4 patrol pockets will hold 3 AR mags, 2 m14/g3/fal mags, 16 rounds of 12 gauge (on optional 12 Gauge Pull Out Tray), 6 M1 Garand clips (on optional M1 Garand Clip Pull Out Tray), or an HC/CS Smoke Grenade. Sizing: Fits all. Specifications: Genuine 1000 Denier Cordura nylon. |
