100% Tarka Body Armor Vest (Black) (L)
I purchased this specific vest and a couple others to compare for overall fit and protection. The Tarka was the least bulky, and probably tied for second place in actual protection. It was not the most comfortable however. I have a 42 chest, and a 34-35 waist. Zipping this thing up was an ordeal due to the zipper's location. Understandably we want body armor to fit well and not move around. Size L was very snug; pretty much a skin tight fit. Since there are very few English language reviews available concerning fitment of Tarka Vest, I ordered what 100% recommended. Found one review later that stated what I suspected, their sizing run's small, so I ordered an XL. It is still snug but not uncomfortable, and Performance Bike offers it at the best price.
