IDZ Vests

The IDZ vest is a new vest currently worn by German troops. It is part of the IDZ program. The vest comes in a version with armor and one without. They are simmilar to Molle except the webbing is a bit thinner. Now why did I make this thread? I am looking for a replica of these vests. The problem is I cannot find any of them anywhere. I cannot justify spending over 400 on a vest without the pouches. If anyone can help me out finding a replica or something similar, I would really appreciate it.

Then the problem here is you. In this hobby you need to be willing to dump out some major cash if you want the coolest thing. I can't think of any vests that come with pouches that aren't already permanently attached. You can probably find pouches in the same pattern for a decent price.

I think spending is my smallest problem

I have a Guarder CIRAS (Came with all pouches) retails for around 320
KSK Smock and Pants 320 for the set
Propper MultiCam
I mean if I could buy a replica vest and buy the real pouches that would work for me as well.

Sorry, I couldn't find it.

There is the old Body Armor pretty cheap, and comparable chest rigs or vests, in flecktarn, for a quarter of the price.

IIRC, some Chinese company made a really cheap knockoff of it, however that was a long while ago, but it wasn't the best and it only had some resemblance to this. I've been keeping a lookout for a while, and I really love that vest and I've wanted it for quite a while.

you wont find a replica. stuff like this is real deal or nothing.

one of the best sources for good german gear is http://www.flecktarn.co.uk/german.php, but you probably already know about it.

this is me wearing my version.

Like you i searched for about 6 monthes looking for a cheaper way to aquire an IDZ vest.

Ill tell you this. There is none.
theres one, called the ksk tactical vest.
but thats also like 2-300 bucks.

I went with a flecktarn molle cira's
(Look on weaponblender.com its pretty cheap.)

Heres a pic of me wearing it, over the flack vest. I think it looks just as good as the idz over it. its not a great pic, Only one i got with me wearing all of it. To hot for it, untill next winter lol

Im second from the left, with the Box magged g3
