Women's Defender Short Sleeve Shirt

Description

First Tactical’s Defender Series Shirts are the best of both worlds: performance built to handle any mission while maintaining the professional look needed when on normal patrol. In the performance department specialized pockets boast ample space for oversized gear, a specialize yoke eliminates unwanted bulk, and oversized sleeve pockets accept patches or embroidery. Creating the perfect warm weather shirt was at the forefront of design as articulated elbows, running gussets, and vented mesh locations provide advanced movement and breathability.

Determining Your Size

Using a measuring tape, measure your body (over your undergarments) & refer to body charts to determine the best size. Measurements refer to body size, not garment dimensions, unless otherwise noted. If you fall between sizes, we recommend ordering the larger size.

How to Measure:

Chest: Measure under arms and around the fullest part of your chest with measuring tape parallel to the floor.
Natural Waist: Measure around the smallest part of your waist (where it bends).
Hip: Stand with your feet together and measure around the fullest part of your hip with the measuring tape parallel to the floor.
Arm Length: Slightly bend elbow and measure from the center back of the neck, over top of the shoulder, and down to the wrist.
