STREETWISE STAB PROTECTION HOODIE

Our stab vest use the Worlds Most Flexible Stab Protection Material, unlike some manufacturers in the market today that use a non flexible plate design that affords  very little flexibility for bending, or side flexion of the trunk, which becomes very uncomfortable in particular where task may involve twisting, bending or activities requiring side torsion flexibility, as well as affording little to no breathability. You can also sit down wearing our vest, but try sitting down with the non flexible options offered by other manufacturers! Some of our competitors vest are made for U.K. conditions and our Australian climate has not been taken into consideration. Our material is lightweight, flexible and has a patented design that allows air to enter and heat to escape from the material easier. This is a patented design not offered by any other stab protection company in the world!

Our customers feedback on the non flexible options offered by other manufacturers speaks for itself by way of changing to our products. Ours offer flexibility, and breathability which is what you want when you are  wearing a vest for a full shift!

*Note: Level 1 & 2 does offer some blunt force trauma protection but its main function is for stab protection. We recommend level 3 if you want maximum Stab & blunt force trauma protection.

NOTE: We do not recommend level 3 for covert vest if you are wearing for more than 2 hours, or need full flexibility. Level 3 is good for cell extractions, mental health facility response teams, short term assignments. For general security related work level 1 is suffice to stop knives, scissors, needlestick, glass, spikes, shivs, slashing, up to 24 joules of force.

With our innovative stab-proof pullover hoodie you are well equipped especially in the cold season. It looks like a normal hoodie, so that you are able to blend into almost any environment. But inside the vest you will find our proven stab-proof material, which protects you all around. The very large safety area covers almost the entire upper body. In addition to the upper body protection, flexible protective elements are also available as an option and are located in the arms so that you can defend against knife attacks unharmed. (f you require sleeve protection please contact us first) for a price on this option.

As with our vests range, the stab-proof hoodie is characterised by a very high wearing comfort. We achieve this by the low weight of approx.1.8kg (level 1) in combination with a protected area of over 0.32 to 0.38 m². Furthermore, the wearing comfort is significantly increased by the high flexibility of the stab-proof material. This means that the hoodie can be worn permanently without any restrictions – regardless of whether you are seated or highly active.

DESCRIPTION

Our stab-proof hoodie is ideal for enjoying inconspicuous all-round protection in the cold season. Thanks to the patent pending process, we have succeeded in covering all areas of the upper body. The stomach and back area are protected down to the waist - a protection that even high-quality vests cannot offer. Even the zipper is extra protected. 

Although the hoodie has a large protection area, it only weighs 1.8 to 3kg depending on your size and protection level chosen and is therefore always comfortable to wear. 

The protection panels can be removed so that it can be cleaned easily.

The technology used to manufacture our stab protection vests and other stab-proof clothing is innovative and unique in the world. After years of intensive research, we have succeeded in producing a textile composite that is safe, light and flexible at the same time. Our stab-proof hoodie, for example, only weighs around 1.7 kg. (level 1) The protective layer consists of a high-strength aramid fabric on which a special plastic is inseparably applied. 

Thanks to the high-strength fibers and the energy-absorbing plastic, the specific properties of this composite are even higher than those of stainless steel plates. The weight is around 4.5 times less than that of a comparably thick stainless steel plate. To ensure flexibility and breath ability, we have taken the armadillo as a model. As with this armoured mammal, we use an overlapping scale structure. Unlike other providers, however, our sheets are arranged in such a way that it is not possible to push them apart. This enables us to achieve a high level of security in combination with the highest degree of flexibility.

Our stab proof clothing is not ballistic rated and is stab proof only. We do not sell bullet proof vest.

Note: We don't recommend level 3 for sleeves for general security levels, as may be a little restrictive to arm movement
