Guy fortress vest

The Guy Fortress Vest is named in memory of Guy Simchi, a soldier in the Paratroopers Reconnaissance Unit who fell at Kibbutz Re’im on October 7, 2023. Guy demonstrated extraordinary courage by shielding his friends from terrorists with his own body, saving the lives of 14 of his comrades.

The Guy Fortress Combat Vest is based on the proven structure of our Naval Assault Vest platform, configured specifically for combat operations, rapid response teams, and security units. It is a semi-modular vest featuring dedicated armor compartments, an integrated magazine-carrying front panel, and a comfortable load-bearing design that supports prolonged wear with armor and mission equipment.

The interior combines breathable mesh and dedicated comfort padding to enhance airflow and reduce fatigue during extended use. The upper front section includes a hook-and-loop identification panel, while detachable retention loops allow secure routing of hydration tubes or communication cables. A dedicated rear hydration compartment can also serve as a general-purpose storage pocket.
