Essential Flexback Vest Skirt Apron

Name: Essential Flexback Vest Skirt Apron
SKU: AP-VFBQ / AP-SKIRT
Availability: InStock

The Essential Vest Skirt Flexback shifts 70% of the weight directly to the hips with added support of an adjustable, elastic back relief belt. The Essential apron configuration features extended front panels to achieve a 3/4 overlap (where protection is doubled) which allows for a lighter weight apron without compromising protection. The skirt comes standard with an anti-slip fabric in the back (interior) to keep your skirt in place. Essential aprons are only available in standard sizes.
