Our jackets are equipped with a pocket for the back protector. Access to this pocket can be found on the inside via the zip on the lower back (inscription: “Held Inner Security”), open the zip and then the velcro fastener of the pocket. On many models, the position or fit of the protector can be adjusted via small velcro adjustments.
Why is it not possible to connect my Held jacket with my Held trousers? (connection zip)
If jacket and trouser sizes differ (e.g. jacket size XXL and trousers size 3XL), an adapter (connecting zip) is required. Connecting zips are available in lengths of 64 cm (up to size 58 or XXL) and 94 cm (from size 60 or 3XL). If required, you can order the connecting zip here.
Which jacket fits which trousers, or can all articles be connected?

Where and how can I subscribe to the eVest?
You can subscribe to the In&Box in the app or on the website of our partner In&Motion.
Will the eVest fit under my jacket/leather suit?
Basically, the “rule of thumb” applies here; if the raised fist fits between the leather suit/jacket and the body, the eVest should be able to unfold without any problems.
What do long and short sizes mean for gloves?
Here the length of the fingers is approximately 4 mm longer or shorter.
