There are many standards but this one is the most common in Europe and widely used worldwide. Soft panels offer IIIA at most, from there it's hard plates.

Sizing and adjustments

The Tacticum Vest is available in many different sizes and it also offers a wide range of size adjustment. The sizing and fit are adjusted using hook-and-loop on the shoulders and shock cord and webbing loops on the back to adjust the circumference of the cummerbund. The shock cord enables the vest to breathe and move with the user, providing that little extra bit of comfort.

The measurements in the size menu are recommended user chest circumferences in centimeters, including the adjustment range. Various sizes weigh as follows:

  • Small: 3.8 kg / 8.4 lbs
  • Medium: 3.9 kg / 8.6 lbs
  • Large: 4.0 kg / 8.8 lbs

Made by Sioen Ballistics

The Tacticum series of body armour was originally developed and produced by Verseidag Ballistic Protection (one of Finlands leading producers of ballistic equipment and a huge supplier of the Finnish defence forces). In 2017, Belgium-based Sioen purchased Verseidag, the gear is still the same, only under a different name.

Quality product, well put together, and comfortable without plates (I have not installed plates yet). Fast shipping, even to the USA, which is appreciated. Plate location is lower than US doctrine has us put ours, so keep that in mind. I've put in an order for neck/shoulder protection and throat protection as I have not forgotten the wise words of the Wu Tang Clan.

Great work to the crew at Varusteleka. You've earned a repeat customer :)

I agree with the other review. I put some hesco plates in mine and it does sit a little lower than i would like. But still a nice set. I thought the soft pistol armor was removable but it is part of the vest.

Waiting to order the other parts for complete protection.

I checked with the ATF and usa customs and had no issues having this mailed to my address.
