The Women’s Field Armor Stryker vest features all the same construction as the men’s version but has been retailored for a woman’s fit. The back plate has been made slightly shorter by changing to a five or six plate arrangement. Additionally, the midriff and velcro adjustment straps have been rescaled for proper fit. Of course the main function of the vest’s back protector still remains intact as the women's version meets applicable certification standards for back protecting.
