Stab Proof Vests

Stab Proof Vests — NIJ-Certified Body Armour for UK Security, Work & Everyday Protection

"Lightweight, vital organ protection engineered for seamless layering and rapid mobility..." - Looking for a stab proof vest that's UK-legal, genuinely NIJ-certified, and light enough for all-day wear? Every vest in this collection meets NIJ 0115.0 Level 1 standards — independently tested to stop 24 joules of knife force and 36 joules of spike force. That's the same level trusted by security professionals and police forces across the UK. Choose from covert stab vests that disappear under a t-shirt or work shirt, overt tactical vests with MOLLE webbing for door supervision and security roles, and everyday knife-proof vests built on our SoftGuard super-dense HPPE-silk knit fabric. Which protection line is right for you? FlexGuard uses carbon-fibre composite scales arranged in an articulated interlocking pattern — engineered through 19 years of biomimetic research — for maximum stab protection in high-risk roles. It's NIJ 0115.0 Level 1 certified and weighs as little as 1.2 kg. SoftGuard uses a super-dense knit of HPPE and mulberry silk that delivers 450N puncture resistance — triple the EN388 Level 4 requirement — with zero rigidity. Think of it as a knife-proof t-shirt: flexible, breathable, invisible under clothing. All vests ship free in the UK with 30-day returns. Not sure which level you need?

TACTICAL BRIEFING (FAQ)

Our ArmorLite wear uses advanced materials and innovative design to provide stab-resistant protection while remaining flexible and comfortable. Please read this article to learn more.
Our designs aim to strike a balance between protection and mobility. Coverage is focused on the most vulnerable areas while allowing for flexibility and comfort.
Wearing ArmorLite stab-proof vests and jackets is just as easy as wearing your conventional apparel. Simply put on the vest or jacket as you would any other piece of clothing. However, it’s important to pay attention to the correct positioning of the armor. Ensure that the impact side of the body armor—the side designed to absorb and deflect attacks—is facing outward. This ensures that the armor will provide effective protection. Additionally, when removing and reattaching the armor panels for washing and cleaning, make sure to reattach them properly to maintain the integrity of the protection. Kindly refer to the instructions and videos on this page.
At ArmorLite, we prioritise your safety by ensuring our stab-proof body armour complies with the most stringent safety standards in the world. Our products meet NIJ Level 1 standards for protection against knives, syringes, and other sharp objects. Additionally, our armour adheres to the rigorous VPAM standards for both stabbing and blunt force protection. ArmorLite is also certified by the China National Accreditation Service (CNAS) and follows ISO standards to guarantee the highest levels of quality and safety. These industry-leading certifications ensure our armour delivers top-tier protection you can trust.
Stab-proof body armour is specialised protective wear designed to prevent or reduce injury from stabbing or puncture wounds. ArmorLite has spent years since 2006 developing cutting-edge stab-proof material, combining high-performance carbon fibre and strong aramid fibres using patented fabrication technologies. This innovative combination of materials is specifically designed to absorb and disperse impact energies, and will withstand a wide range of sharp and blunt object attacks, including knives, syringes, and even bricks. The result is a lightweight, flexible body armour that provides unmatched protection without compromising comfort.
