Vest is comfortable, warm and wind resistant. I made all the difference shooting in the wind/rain/snow. I was much warmer during the stages. I have not used the hood yet. It is still a little long for me but I am very short from the waist up. I did end up with my regular American size. The next...

I was VERY disappointed in the size, which was way too small for me. That is on me. The vest was very well made and looked to be of exceptionally high quality. I had to pay to send the vest back and get credit. Whose fault is this, really? (Mine!) I just can't afford to order a new one right now...

It’s a good looking vest for sure. They run small… I’m normally a large shirt and went XXL (broad chest and shoulders). It still fits snug. Not a vest you’ll be wearing in the summer. Definitely for cooler weather. Double Alpha makes great stuff and their customer service is excellent if you have...

Great vest. Lots of room for those bad belly days and additional straps to taper the vest after the holiday weight is off. Very warm and doesn't interfere in the least with my mag pouches or open holster. Lots of pockets. Looks great, too.

DAA SHOTAC Shooting Vest

(29)
Manufacturers: Double-Alpha Academy

Description:

The DAA SHOTAC Shooting Vest is a garment custom designed from the ground up to provide a solution to a very real problem: How to stay warm enough in cold weather, in clothing that is not cumbersome and does not interfere with the draw, reloads and movement while shooting IPSC, USPSA, IDPA or other practical pistol disciplines. Anyone who trains or competes in cold weather will be well familiar with the challenge.

Leaning on 15 years experience gained by Competitive Edge Dynamics with their Shooting Vest, we worked to bring the product into the 21st century using modern materials, look and feel. The All new DAA SHOTAC Shooting Vest has a matt black texture and a soft-shell outer finish. It is water repellent, yet breathable and comfortable to wear for extended periods. Its cut and fit are designed and made specifically for the task at hand: IPSC style shooting, while outdoors in the extreme cold.

The DAA Shooting Vest’s features include:

  • Medium thickness thermal insulation provides warmth without creating bulkiness
  • Wide and deep arm cutouts assure wearing is comfortable when in the arm-extended double-grip shooting stance
  • Wide elastic side panels create a snug fit around the midsection, preventing interference while drawing the gun or reloading
  • 4 wide elastic Velcro straps allow you to connect the vest to your inner belt, to keep it from riding up
  • Cut short, to end just above your belt, thus avoiding interference with your shooting gear
  • 2 front cargo pocket, plus 2 zippered chest pockets, provide ample storage
  • 3 frontal horizontal webbings create connection points for hanging a timer, radio or other small gear
  • Rain hat folded into neck collar
  • Frontal chest transparent card/name holder, and Velcro patch attachment tabs
  • Rubberized SHOTAC and DAA logos on chest and back of neck.

Sizing Information:

This garment is designed to be a snug fit. It will fit shooters with average to slightly heavy builds, but may be too tight around the stomach for those with very large midsections. In an effort to provide you with helpful sizing information, we have had a dozen various people try them on, and recorded their chest circumference and their best fitting Shooting Vest size.

Our testing indicates that European customers should order their shooting vest in the same size they usually order their shirts/jackets in.

US customers though should order their shooting Vests one size larger than the size they usually buy their cloths in. (so if you usually buy size L clothing in the USA, order an XL vest).

Chest Circumference  -  Size to order

84-90cm (33 - 35")  -     SMALL
90-96cm (35 - 38")  -     MEDIUM
96-102cm (38 - 40") -     LARGE
102-108cm (40 - 42") -   X-LARGE
108-115cm (42 - 45") -    XX-LARGE
115-123cm (45 - 48.5") - XXX-LARGE

It is still a little long for me but I am very short from the waist up. I did end up with my regular American size. The next size up was too big. “Hot hands” in the pockets kept my hands warm while I waited for “make ready”.

I had to pay to send the vest back and get credit. Whose fault is this, really? (Mine!) I just can't afford to order a new one right now with a trip to Lake Charles and the Bianchi Cup coming up. This is a good vest and the fault is all mine.

The vest is very well constructed. Materials are top-notch. European cut (smaller size and zipper via left hand). It has elastic on the lower abdomen sides which gives the overall appearance of an "Athletic Fit". The material is firm, not flimsy cotton nor shiny synthetic. Gives the appearance of NIJ Level IIa (I am NOT suggesting it provides any protection other than climatic). It feels padded, substantive. Looks "Super Cool" on. Note: If you order one size up as the description recommends, AND you have "extra" mid section weight you may need to go an additional size up (call a cust rep). I am usually a "large USA". I purchased the X-Large Vest, fits like a glove.... I have full movement of arms and shoulders, abdomen is tight; but livable. It has internal Velcro straps that can pull the lower abs section even tighter, making a "larger size" a potential alternative. I'll keep my X-Large as is. It will certainly stop the temptation of grabbing that extra slice of pizza.....
