All New Zealand police officers will receive new stab- and bullet-proof vests in a $20 million roll-out over the next three-and-a-half years.
The current vests - which were introduced in 2006 - are stab-proof, but special vests are worn by any officers involved in firearms call-outs.
They have passed their warranty, but remain "safe and fit for purpose", says Police Commissioner Mike Bush.
What do you think about the new armour? Are police officers safe using the current vests? Are you surprised the existing vests aren't stab- and bullet-proof?

Better still, they’re a snap to make, especially if you have ready-grated tasty and parmesan cheese from Mainland in the fridge.
For the more adventurous eaters, finish each muffin with a little wedge of Brie, Noble or Blue cheese. You might not be able to resist sneaking a couple for your own lunch!

In some cases, I felt let down by the expectation from some, that I had to work for less than minimum wage and ignore all my financial obligations, as a business, to do that.
I now understand why a lot of small businesses struggle to survive. I can't afford to advertise for another month and go through another month like this.
Thank for those who enjoyed real old school service. I will be around still, but will use other ways of finding work, other that neighbourly.
