Team Biathlon Vest purchase
Our team vests are custom made in the USA by Podiumwear. These are Podiumwear’s “silver” model with unisex adult sizing. Size charts can be found here. If you’re between sizes, we recommend sizing up.
Vests are a particularly useful layer for biathletes. A vest adds warm through a thin layer that doesn’t interfere with the fit of a biathlete’s arm cuff or their ability to take on and off their rifle smoothly. If you watch elite biathletes train, you’ll notice they prefer to train in a vest + race suit instead of a jacket unless it is really cold.
Here’s what Podiumwear says about the silver vests:
The Indispensable Layer.
This is an often overlooked layering piece for nordic skiers - perfect for warmer temperatures when you need a bit of breathable insulation, or for colder temperatures when you need an extra layer. The primary softshell fabric has a DWR finish and 4-way stretch for dynamic movement. It is breathable and water resistant with a light hand-feel. The back mesh panel makes it ultra breathable where you need it to be. Zippered hip pockets make for great storage. Your team will love this vest. You'll also be surprised how often your team wears it just because it looks cool.
