Body armor (10) to be worn on the torso of a person includes a front section (22) having ballistic paneling therein and a back section (32) having ballistic paneling therein. The body armor (10) further includes at least one side closure mechanism (50a, 50b) including a rearward section (60a, 60b) adapted to be grasped and pulled in a forward direction around the side of the torso to close the closure mechanism (50a, 50b) . The rearward section (60a, 60b) is in operative connection with a forward section (70a, 70b) of the side closure mechanism so that a portion (24,26) of the ballistic paneling of the front section moves in a rearward direction around the side of the torso of the person when the rearward (60a, 60b) section is pulled in a forward direction and overlaps a portion (34,36) of the ballistic paneling in the back section when the closure mechanism (50a, 50b) is in a closed position.

L'invention concerne une tenue de protection qu'une personne peut porter sur le torse, qui comporte une section avant renfermant des panneaux balistiques et une section arrière renfermant des panneaux balistiques. Ladite tenue de protection comporte en outre au moins un mécanisme de fermeture latérale comprenant une section arrière destinée à être saisie et tirée vers l'avant autour du côté du torse pour fermer ledit mécanisme. La section arrière est reliée fonctionnelle à la section avant du mécanisme de fermeture latérale, ainsi, une partie des panneaux balistiques de la section avant se déplace dans la direction arrière autour du côté du torse de la personne lorsque la section arrière est tirée vers l'avant et recouvre une partie des panneaux balistiques dans la section arrière lorsque le mécanisme de fermeture est en position fermée.
