The product is well made and will suit my needs. However, I contacted your support asking for suggestions on getting a bit longer side panels (I'm not a skinny guy). They offered ballistic panels bu... See more

The vest fits and wears well. Like the fact that it is both bullet resistant and slash and stab resistant. This is very important as sometime knives are encountered and not guns. The updates about... See more

Love this Belt

To be honest, I thought the belt was going to not be what they showed, so far, I have only been wearing it for 4 weeks and it is incredible. When I first received the belt it was tough to get it adjusted to my size but after a few shifts and a few micro adjustments which I will explain the belt is perfect. The adjustments are so easy to make and only take a second to do, so if you want the belt looser or tighter its super quick and simple.

The wrong color belt was sent to me

The wrong color belt was sent to me. I contacted customer service and they were very helpful and arranged for me to return it so the correct color belt could be sent to me. I am unhappy that I had to wait for my return to be processed and received by Safe Life before my correct color was sent to me. I feel that as soon as it was confirmed that the wrong color belt had been sent to me, Safe Life should have sent out my correct color belt to me. This would have cut down my wait time by a couple of days at least. It was Safe Life's mistake that caused a delay in me receiving my product, yet they were unwilling to correct the mistake until they received the return. Also, no offer of a discount or a credit for the mistake and inconvenience was disappointing.

Order was delivered on time

Order was delivered on time. Been wearing body armor for over thirty years, and I was definitely not used to how thin the panels are. I purchased because of your videos so I'm going to trust you with my life. Was not sure about the sizing, as all my vests have been custom fit, but it seems to fit well, if different. Should be a pocket in the carrier for an extra kevlar panel if one wants to add it. My life in your hands fellas...

I like the products

I like the products. I lost a lot of weight and my previous safe life vest was to big. This time I made an upgrade. I’m very happy with my new vest. Easy ordering and fast shipping.

I had the worst experience with…

I had the worst experience with customer service and the company. I tried to contact by phone with an issue and got nothing. I finally got an email response after a period of time and the communication was very lacking. They disregarded my problem, did not pay attention to my needs or what I was explaining, I won’t ever purchase again.

Great customer service.

I bought to rifle plates. Upon arrival, one of the plates was missing. I contacted Safe Life and they initiated an investigation. Within two weeks, Safe Life sent me the missing plate. Very satisfied with their customer service.

I never received the item I ordered!

It's been a month or so and I have yet to receive the carrier. It was marked as delivered but never made it. contacted customer service to be told it was marked as delivered. so I'm out 200 bucks and there's no way to refute the delivery or prove I didn't get it. and Im not willing to spend another 200 just to gamble on whether or not that one makes it. Oh well we live and learn. I just won't order again...
