The ALPHA11 vest is an adaptation of the classic ALPHA1 vest so that it can be worn as an over cover vest with ceramic plates. Plate pockets can be top or side opening. Cordura, Nylon and heavy duty webbing straps are used to make the vest harder wearing. These vests can be Made-to-Measure. Shoulder pads are optional for added comfort.

Zebra Armour designs and manufactures exclusively in its own factories. Quality control and reproducibility proven and tested in our new test and research facility guarantees the user that our products consistently meet the standards against which they are designed.
