When ordering outside of United States of America, the recipient is responsible for assuring the product can be legally imported to the destination country.

The recipient is the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the destination country. The recipient of an international shipment may be subject to import taxes, customs duties and fees, which are imposed once a shipment reaches the recipient's country. Additional charges for customs clearance must be fulfilled by the recipient. 221B Tactical has no control over these charges, nor can predict what they may be.

When customs clearance procedures are required, it can cause delays beyond our original delivery estimates.

To avoid a delay in receiving your order from customs, we strongly suggest:

  • Providing a phone number where you can be reached by customs when your product arrives. This phone number will be listed on the commercial invoice so customs can reach you to clear your order.

We do not refund original shipping charges for goods that are refused for delivery at customs.

(1) Maxx-Dri Vest 5.0 Black

(1) Maxx-Dri Silver Elite T-shirt Black

Newly introduced Maxx-Dri Vest 5.0 is our most effective and adjustable body armor ventilation vest yet. Made of a patented ultra-lightweight 3D material, it creates a layer of space between your base-layer shirt and your body armor. By letting perspiration escape and fresh air to come in, your body can now breathe.

Based on 10 years of customer feedback, MDV 5.0 offers optimal adjustability: Both side straps can be removed and non-slip grip material has been added to both front and back for better stability. 

"It Really Works. The vest itself is quite lightweight, but very well made....I tried it outdoors a few times in the Florida heat with a plate carrier and plates and the stand off it provided really does make the difference in keeping you a bit cooler. Definitely worth the money if you live in a warm environment." —Guy McCardle Jr. (May 3, 2024)

You also need a great base-layer shirt! That's why our Silver Elite Anti-itch/rash Base-Layer Shirt is the second product we invented, as the perfect complement to Maxx-Dri Vest. 

The material of Silver Elite Shirt (both tee and long sleeve) is infused with silver, the actual metal (AG+), which fights bacteria. Silver has been used as an antimicrobial since the times of the ancient Greeks and Romans, who used it to disinfect their water (they put it in wells) and food supplies. 

"Product does as it says. I was skeptical, however all the reviews where positive. Tried it out and was pleasantly surprised. Air was circulating under my plate carrier and kept me cool. Also, the Silver Elite Shirt also helped with keeping me cool so as a system they work hand and hand. Highly recommend!" —Dave (June 14, 2023)

Silver Elite is comfortable to wear. It has flat-sewn seams and tagless labeling, and is long enough to stay tucked into your pants. While a perfect base-layer complement to MDV, it's also super comfortable and functional as a standalone shirt for work or play in hot weather. 

Together, Maxx-Dri Vest (MDV) and Silver Elite make wearing body armor more bearable. Together, they’ll keep you cooler, drier, less stinky and free of rashes caused by bacteria. 

 

 

"Stopped skin infections for my husband! My husband works armed security and this summer has been brutal. Rashes, then a skin infection, led us to the dermatologist for treatment and biopsies. I began to search for an alternative to his long-preferred compression shirts and found 221b. What a game changer! Within days of making the change in shirts the rashes were calmed down, and the infections have stayed gone. He says he is far more comfortable, stays drier, and is very happy with the change. Thank you for making such a terrific product!" —Melissa G. (Sept. 5, 2023)

Istant difference

Upon putting on the anti itch slash rash 221b shirt and max dri vest 5.0, i noticed an instant difference in comfort and design in comparison to my Militaur vest. I haven't worn it on a shift yet but my doubts are next to none. Very happy with my purchase.
