Have had this jacket for just shy of one year. Fits nice and snug in places you want it be and loose in the areas you want it to be. I wear for both work and personal use. Plates are all smooth and flat no real noticeable impressions. Stiff for the first month or so depending on usage, after that it's pretty flexible and pliable. After extensive day trips in 80° to 90° heat it can get hot. I have also worn it in temeratures as low as 26° windchill and in those times, it worked well to keep the wind out with a slight tug from the elastic waistband and adjusting the wrist cuffs. it's comfortable. Works well for public situations as people are none the wiser. Have not had any problems with any metal detectors or securities at any venues or court houses. All around a good solid product, Although it Will sun fade. Still Recommend. - BPE Response This actually wasn't something we had heard before and it is greatly appreciated. We have added more UV stabilizer to our second quarter 2025 fabrics and this should no longer be a problem.

I had the original from like 5 years ago. It had expired finally and they called me to upgrade. THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER. The quality is amazing and the system is just way better. The old one was pretty bulky. This is what I originally imagined. They gave me a really good discount for buying again. I highly recommend it.

Feels really good and its well done a bit heavy but it don't bother me and now its the best time to use it since my Wife saw how much I payed for it.

Jacket material is excellent feels great. Bulletproof vest is fairly light for the protection but is bulkier than it appears in the pictures. I imagine it will become more pliable with more wear but overall very happy with the product and customer service

Size Lg fits a Med-Lg person perfectly. An armor jacket that doesn’t look like one. Discreet wear at it’s best..

Very warm as it doesn’t breathe very well. I definitely like it. Have worn it to my work several times and no one has noticed what it is. One suggestion, maybe make something in FR rating. As an electrician, many times we have to wear Fire Rated clothing when working, and it’s just a good habit to have in my trade. If I am going to wear this while working, it would be awesome to have something in an FR rating. Even while not working, it’s never a bad idea to have that added level of protection that many people do not think of. It definitely doesn’t have to be this style, but some kind of long sleeve product in an FR rating, and I would be very interested. Just a thought.

I took my vest overseas and didn't had any problems with airport or security. It was smooth transition. Thank you so much. I felt safe with it. As it was winter time, it helped me stay warm.

5'8" 190 medium build large jacket fits as i wanted it to . Just a bit loose so it looks like my Northface jacket. In downtown Baltimore and I wear it to and from work. removed the panels and rolled them up and just worked them as per website to loosen them up. Definitely helps. Comfortable to wear while driving my truck. Still a bit stiff in the front went bending over or getting into a car. The jacket will also keep you warm. 30 degrees outside and its like wearing an insulated coat. I would definitely buy another coat in the future.

I wear this most of the time while doing under cover security , even my clients comment on how its looks like just another jacket.
