    I use the SixSixOne pressure suit, it has saved me on one or too occassions and doesnt feel too bulky.

    I would agree with the above these new suites seem to be the way to go.

    Personally, I use the Rock Gard'n Flak jacket.

    It is easy to wear, not too hot thanks to the open mesh and has excellent protection. I have tried it out and I am completely happy with it. It covered me better than the Six Six One version. Your mileage may vary.

    I started using the Sixsixone last year and now both my wife and youngest are using them too.

    When it gets hot we all use the Sixsixone Core Cooler. It literally sucks the heat away from your body. Last year they were backordered for a long time - it seems the firefighters love 'em. ;)

    I use the EVS Ballistic Jacket. It's a little strange getting used to, but affords some serious protection.

    I use the EVS also. It does give great protection. My only gripe is that the kidney belt is so thick it does not fit inside the pants.....or, .......maybe I......um...just need to lose some weight? :? .......nah! the belt is just too thick. :roll:
    Could you repeat that? In English this time!
