FAQ

What is Stab Proof Vest?

Stab-proof vest is a specialized 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 fiber and strong aramid fibers using patented fabrication technologies. This innovative combination of materials is specifically designed to absorb and disperse impact energies, and will withstand attacks from a wide range of sharp and blunt objects, including knives, syringes, and even bricks. The result is a lightweight, flexible body armor that provides unmatched protection without compromising comfort.

Is it legal to wear stab proof vest?

The short answer is yes. There are currently no legal restrictions on the purchase, ownership, or use of body armour by civilians. Body armour is considered personal protective equipment (PPE) and is legal to buy, own, and wear. However, regulations differ between different countries and regions, we ask that you kindly check with your local regulations before making your purchase.

Does the vest come with side protections as standard?

Our FlexGuard Vests come with front and back protection as standard. Front and back protection is an industry-wide standard. This is to strike a balance between protection coverage and weight, the sides of the torso are less at risk than the front and back, and additional protection pads would make the vest more bulkier and heavy, compromising on comfort and hence shorten effective protection time. The side and arm protection is an added option available in our wholesale program. The ArmorLite SoftGuard series, offers 360 protection around the upper torso, with emphasis on lightweight and softness, is a much more discreet yet effective option against moderate threats.

What are the differences between your FlexGuard Series and SoftGuard Series?

The ​FlexGuard Series prioritizes heavy-duty protection while providing a certain degree of mobility with its flexible protective panels built into the garment. It’s engineered for scenarios requiring agility and resilience, such as active combat or tactical operations. This series is ideal for law enforcement, security personnel, or anyone needing to stay nimble while facing high-impact risks. Its design ensures unrestricted movement without sacrificing safety.

In contrast, the ​SoftGuard Series emphasizes comfort and subtlety. It offers a moderate knife-resistant solution effective against everyday or lighter threats, such as concealed carry risks, while being super soft and air-breathable. Perfect for daily protection in uncertain streets, corporate security, or prolonged wear in environments where blending in is essential, SoftGuard provides reliable defense while maintaining all-day comfort.

In summary: FlexGuard excels in high-intensity situations demanding agility and robust protection, while SoftGuard is tailored for comfort and inconspicuous wear under lower-risk scenarios.
