We live in a world where public security seems within reach, yet violent crimes are lurking in the hidden alleys of society. Traditional body armor has always been bulky, costly, and obtrusive. Even the latest gear used by law enforcement still comes with a hefty price tag and outdated designs like those of their predecessors.

We had to rethink the problem from the ground up and design a completely new kind of personal protection solution. One that would make the art of flex armor accessible to everyone without compromising on comfort or style.

Introducing the ARMOR-TEX Jacket.

Imagine combining the comfort of your favorite travel attire with cutting-edge, lightweight anti-stabbing technology. The ARMOR-TEX jacket is not just another safety gear. It’s the world’s first lightweight, multi-purpose anti-stabbing jacket designed specifically for modern explorers and urban nomads, setting a new standard in personal protective equipment. 

Designed with the modern explorer in mind, this jacket offers remarkable protection without compromising on style or comfort. Whether you’re navigating the crowded streets of a bustling city or exploring an off-the-beaten-path destination, ARMOR-TEX ensures that you’re always one step ahead of potential threats.

Experience peace of mind with our jacket’s complete torso protection against stab, spike, and cut threats in any direction. Engineered to meet KR1+SP1 protection standards with 0mm penetration, the 3.9mm thick carbon fiber armor panel ensures you remain shielded in the most dangerous encounters. Wrap yourself in unbeatable safety with defense upon the chest and back, with all vital organs fully shielded from injuries.

Weatherproof, breathable, lightweight. The ARMOR-TEX jacket is designed with a state-of-the-art three-layer fabric and delivers exceptional performance in all weather conditions. Offering a 4+ waterproof rating and rigorously tested to 10,000+ mmH2O for waterproof breathability, this jacket ensures you stay dry and comfortable, whether caught in a sudden downpour or moving through a humid climate. Its breathable material guarantees comfort even during extended wear, making it a reliable companion for long adventures.

Create the optimal outfit for every situation. The modular wear system consists of several layers – outer garments, a covert liner, and three zippers – that can be mix-matched in a variety of ways. You can easily zip them together in less than a minute. Every item can be worn perfectly on its own as well – adding additional choices for maximum concealability. With this flexible solution, you can build the jacket that perfectly fits your needs and preferences.

Gear up in a flash. Imagine the flexibility to reconfigure your jacket in less than a minute, adjusting it for maximum concealability or enhanced protection depending on your surroundings. Each piece in the ARMOR-TEX system can be zipped together or worn separately, providing an array of choices to suit any occasion. Within a minute, you are ready to dock or undock with the Armor liner through merely three zippers – that simple.

Meet the low-profile, ‘Darth Vader’ look. The ARMOR-TEX jacket boasts a low-key all-black look that exudes a ‘Darth Vader’ allure, blending perfectly into any background with intimidating elegance. This sleek look isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about making a statement while maintaining ultimate protection and discretion.


Silence the Noise. Move through your day with stealthy precision thanks to our jacket’s silent, low-friction fabric and quiet zippers. Whether on a covert mission or navigating daily errands, the jacket ensures you’re heard only when you choose to be. Effortlessly glide through surroundings and crowds without causing unwanted attention.

Comfort and protection goes hand in hand. Thanks to the rollable and bendable carbon fiber armor panel, you won’t feel confined or uncomfortable, even during dashing or wall runs. Say goodbye to the stiffness associated with traditional body armor and embrace a new level of guarded velocity that doesn’t compromise safety.

Weighing less than 4 lbs, the ARMOR-TEX jacket challenges the status quo of bulky gear. When combined, the armored jacket is lighter than a regular winter parka, and you can still detach the covert vest for further weight reduction. It’s designed for the modern individual who values freedom of movement and peace of mind.

Feel free to roll or fold for easy portability. The ARMOR-TEX jacket is easily packable and can be stored in your carry-on luggage or backpack. This space-efficient design makes it an ideal choice for those who need reliable protection on the go. Don’t let bulky, cumbersome armor slow you down—opt for a solution that complements your active lifestyle.

Threats come in different shapes and sizes. The ARMOR-TEX jacket is designed to provide covert security for a wide range of life scenarios. From daily city commutes to cross-cultural visits, this jacket has you covered in detrimental situations while remaining low-key.

Perfect for:
Urban safety. Whether you are navigating the hustle and bustle of a city commute or on a solo urbex, the ARMOR-TEX jacket offers undetectable protection just like a common rain jacket.

Global exploration. As an indispensable companion for global travelers exploring the world, it fits effortlessly into your itinerary and provides an extra layer of protection wherever your adventures take you.

Professional protection. For those in high-risk professions or emergency responders, ARMOR-TEX offers reliable protection undercover. Its flexibility allows for necessary performance during projects in rural areas, security tasks, and other high-stakes environments.

Nature-inspired design. Enlightened by Armadillo armor’s adaptive and resilient structure, our carbon fiber panel takes the bionic approach, adding a layer of biological efficiency and significantly enhancing the armor’s flexibility and strength. The overlapping scale design offers a remarkable solution to a common vulnerability in traditional body armor: the gaps that can be pierced by stabbing attacks.

Redundancy through overlapping scale. The patented overlapping scale design contributes to an extra layer of protection redundancy. Each layer adds to the overall strength, ensuring that even if one scale is compromised, the armor remains effective. This unique feature is beneficial in high-risk scenarios where maximum protection is imperative.

Tested to perfection. At the core of each ARMOR-TEX jacket is the professional carbon fiber panel. Engineered to surpass NIJ and VPAM test standards, this liner has gone above and beyond to create a solution that stands up to the harshest conditions and exceeds standard safety requirements for law enforcement.

To ensure the utmost reliability, the ARMOR-TEX Shield Jacket has been rigorously tested against various levels of stab energy and penetration parameters.
