A study from the University of Wisconsin Eau-Claire has shown that police officers that wear load bearing vest carriers experience significantly less hip and lower back pain than those that wear only a duty belt. Our load bearing vest carriers (also known as external carriers) are proudly made in the USA and keep you safe while you protect others. Our load bearing vests are made to exactly fit each officer's bulletproof vest and perfectly match the officer's uniform. With just a few simple steps, we ensure that you'll receive a product that helps to reduce your hip and back pain. We are an industry leader in load bearing vest carriers and custom vests.

We take pride in our American Made products fully stand behind our products. If there's something you'd like that you don't see, please contact us.

Be safe out there.

Note: We can not accept returns on custom items.

First you will need the following:

Measuring tape
Paper
Front and back ballistic vest panels
Pen or pencil
Email address you use
Camera (you can use your phone to take a photo)

Chest measurement

Using the tape measure, measure your chest as shown in diagram 1.A. Write down the measurement.

Next, take your front and back panels out of your carrier vest. Using the tape measure, find and write down the following measurements:

A. Measure the length of your back Ballistic panel as shown in Diagram 4.A
B. Measure the height of your Ballistic back panel as shown in Diagram 4.B
C. Measure the height of one side wing of your Ballistic back panel as shown in Diagram 4.C
D. Measure the length of your Ballistic front panel as shown in Diagram 4.D
E. Measure the height of your Ballistic front panel as shown in Diagram 4.E

When you have finished these steps, please fill in your color preference and measurements in the fields above. Round your measurements up to the next inch.

Once you submit your order online, we will send you a follow-up email requesting the following photos:

We will need two pictures of the Officer in uniform wearing his or her body armor: one picture of the officer facing forward towards the camera and one of the officer turned to the side wearing his or her body armor. Please be sure the entire body armor vest is visible while being worn on the officer.
We will need photos of both of the Officer's ballistic panels: one photo of the front panel and another photo of the back panel.
A photo of the items you want pockets made for, laid out on front vest panel in the position you would like the additional pockets. For example: if you want a radio on the right side of your vest carrier and a flashlight on the left side, place them accordingly.

Your order will not be completed until you send the photos listed.

What Sets Our Custom Vest Carriers Apart from the Competition?

1. Our Vest Carriers are custom made from start to finish. We make each of our vest carriers from scratch, using each officer's individual measurements and their body armor measurements to perfectly construct their custom vest. We also create custom pockets that exactly fit your items like: handcuffs, magazines, radios, OC, tasers, tourniquets, and custom pockets. These pockets can be positioned and sewn anywhere on the vest you'd like. Our open top kydex magazine pouch is extremely popular and second to none in the industry.

2. Each vest is made to your department's exact specifications. Does your department need a velcro patch sewn onto your vest for your name tag? No problem. Need a second mic tab sewn onto the vest? Consider it done. If you have a request please ask us and we will find a solution for you.

3. Our Custom Load Bearing Vests blend in with the Officer's uniform shirt, which keeps a clean and uniform look. This design keeps from looking tactical and instead closely matches the load bearing vest to the officer's uniform. Also, our custom load bearing vest carriers are made out of heavy duty denier cordura, which stands up to everyday use exceptionally well.

4. We warranty the stitching and craftsmanship of our custom load bearing vests for 1 year - the longest warranty in the business. We understand that some damage may happen to your load bearing vest while on duty; if this happens, we are capable of repairing your vest. Please note: normal wear and tear from everyday use and/ or your duty belt rubbing against your load bearing vest is not part of the warranty. This is considered normal wear and tear.

5. Ordering one of our Custom Vest Carriers is Easy! You can either follow our simple online ordering process or request a measurement kit be sent to your department free of charge.

6. Customer Service is extremely important at BlueStone Safety, and we will work with you to ensure that your custom load bearing vest is made exactly how you'd like. If you need any assistance please call us at 630-855-6032 or email us at sales@bluestonesafety.com

7. Our Custom Load Bearing Vests are made to accommodate any brand of body armor. While we do offer our own high quality NIJ 0101.06 Level 3A ballistic panels, we will create our custom load bearing vests to fit any brand of body armor that your department has. Also, since we measure your existing body armor panels and house them in our external carrier, we will warranty our product.
