***These vests DO NOT ship overseas outside of the United States of America, to third-party shipping services, or to the U.S. States of Connecticut, New York, and California. These vests are NOT ITAR compliant.***

***The Kevlar/armor properties of these vests are not guaranteed to be as effective as they were when first manufactured. Kevlar has a life expectancy of 5 years before it EXPIRES, after this amount of time, the fibers can be expected to be significantly weaker and less effective at stopping projectiles and fragmentation. This particular vest was manufactured in 2004, meaning the Kevlar expired in 2009. All of the soft armor inserts are EXPIRED as well which means their protective capabilities are significantly reduced. These vests provide no protection against edged/bladed weapons; these vests ARE NOT stab-proof vests. These vests are intended for COLLECTION PURPOSES only and ARE NOT intended for any kind of use in dangerous scenarios.***
