Patrol Vests: FAQs
US police officers generally wear Level III/ Level IV patrol vests. Anything heavier is not usually necessary. Police patrol vests can protect against blades and smaller caliber ballistic threats. They are also lightweight and spread the weight over your body. This makes them ideal for long patrols.
