It is important when choosing a vest, that you don't over estimate the levels of protection you need, especially if you are wearing the vest for extended periods of time, higher level vests will be heavier than lower level vests, often slightly stiffer also.
Another issue is length of a vest, it should ideally reach your naval (belly button) area. Some people have an idea that it should reach your waist, this would not be ideal. If the vest goes past your naval, it is now protecting non ***** organs, at the cost of movement, and weight. If the vest comes past your naval it might obstruct movement when sitting down or bending over, which wouldn't be ideal.
