SECOND CHANCE® MALE SIZING INSTRUCTIONS

PRIOR TO SIZING:If the officer already has a Second Chance® vest that has been sized properly and they like the fit, use that size. There is NO need to resize the officer.

Prior to going to the agency, make sure that all personnel being sized will be in their normal duty uniform inclusive of their uniform shirt, uniform pants, complete duty belt with equipment loaded in all holsters and holders, and of course the appropriate undergarments.

Have the officer REMOVE all notepads, pens, microphones, etc., from all their pockets prior to sizing.

To ensure the most comfortable fit, it is a good practice to discuss typical stances and/or positions the officer may find himself in most often while on duty, such as driving, kneeling, squatting and/or sitting.

Height and weight are also extremely important factors when it comes to sizing. These measurements provide a good way of verifying that correct measurements were taken while sizing.

TOOLS YOU NEED: Soft measuring tape

An armless chair

Appropriate sizing forms

WHILE SIZING:Speak with the officer to determine their main concerns (i.e. fit, comfort, coverage or side closure). Make sure these concerns are within the agency’s guidelines. Be sure to engage them in the process, making them feel comfortable to speak freely about their concerns. This will make for a much more satisfactory fit. Communication is key.

If you are sizing an officer for a replacement vest, ask the officer what they liked or disliked about that particular vest. If they have their old vest with them, ask the officer to put it on so that you can give your professional guidance to achieve a better fit with the sizing of the new vest.

Take this opportunity to discuss the vest they will be receiving and its features and benefits.

AFTER SIZING:Be sure to review the contents of the package that will come with their vest (i.e. Product Guide, Strap Kit, etc.).

Demonstrate how to assemble and put on their new vest. Ensure they understand the internal suspension system and how to insert their Soft Trauma Plate (if applicable).

Remind them to complete the warranty card and send it into the address as instructed.

EXAMPLE: GIRTH ____ + OVERLAP___= TOTAL GIRTH _____ins.

FULL CHEST MEASUREMENTUsing a soft measuring tape, measure the full chest to determine the front / back panel size. Make sure the officer’s chest is relaxed and measure around the back, directly under arm pits, meeting across center chest front.

EXAMPLE:______ ins.48”

Use the Total Girth Measurement obtained from above for selecting a Front/Back Panel Width below. Then fill out the corresponding box with this size at the bottom of the page.

IMPORTANT TIPS1. Front panel must be as wide or wider than back panel to allow for wrap-around coverage.

For example: a Total Girth of 39” would receive a 20 front panel size and a 20 back panel size.

MEASURING BY SOFT TAPEWhen using a cloth or soft measuring tape, DO NOT pull the tape too tight. A tape that is pulled too tight can significantly alter measurements.

Take ALL measurements to the nearest full inch. If rounding is necessary, round UP on Girth and round DOWN on length. All rounding needs to be done based on the officer’s individual needs.

FRONT SIDE LENGTH MEASUREMENT Using a soft measuring tape, place the tape at the bottom edge of the officer’s clavicle bone and measure straight down to the top edge of the duty belt. Subtract 1” from this measurement.

Front/Back panel lengths should not be more than 2” difference

IMPORTANT TIPS1. When measuring the front length of an officer with a protruding stomach line, measure down only as far as the point at

which the stomach line crests and breaks back towards the duty belt. DO NOT over measure as this will cause the vest to be too long.

IMPORTANT TIPS1. Front Side Length and Front Center Length measurements should be a difference of 2 inches or less. If the measurements

are MORE than 2 inches difference, please go back and re-measure both measurements to ensure accuracy.

IMPORTANT TIPS1. It is highly important to make this calculation in the presence of the officer. Since you have to

round this measurement to the nearest whole number, you will need to consult the officer to make the decision if they’d prefer their vest to be 0.5” longer or shorter. Again, it is recommended that you round down on length.

2. Normally, there should be no more than a 2 inch difference in length between the front and back panels. For example, if the back panel is a 17 inch length, normally the front will be no less than a 15 inch length. If they are, recheck your measurements and ensure you multiplied the back measurement by .80 and subtracted one inch from the front measurement.
