Looking for low-profile bullet resistant protection that won’t break the bank? Our Express Multi-Threat Concealable T-Shirt armor system may be just the thing for you. Similar in concept to our VIP T-Shirt wrap around armor system, the Express armor package offers greater concealability and comfort at a slight trade-off with only front and back protection. The Express carrier is made of the same 2-way stretch material as our VIP, ensuring a comfortable, lightweight fit. Add the two included Level IIIA+ soft-armor inserts and you have an ultra-discreet armor setup to protect your vitals.
Installing and wearing your Express Concealable T-Shirt Armor is as easy as counting to 5:
- Locate the opening of the armor pouch at the top inside of the t-shirt
- Fold an armor panel in half, with the fold running from top to bottom
- Insert the soft armor panels in the pouch then unfold it, making sure the label faces TOWARD the inside of the body. Do the same thing for the other pocket.
- Put the t-shirt on like you would a regular t-shirt
- Throw on a cover garment like a polo, dress shirt, sweatshirt or jacket and you’re ready to go
System includes:
1 Quantity - Express T-shirt carrier in either black or white
1 Quantity - Set of front/back NIJ-certified soft armor, Level IIIA+ panels (see sizing chart below)
What’s the difference between the three armor types? Weight and cost.
- Light is most popular among citizens looking for Level IIIA+ protection that is relatively lightweight yet affordable
- Lighter falls between these two, costing less than the Lightest, but weighing more than the Light.
- Lightest is popular among LE, security, and other professionals looking for the lightest, thinnest, most concealable, and most flexible IIIA+ protection we offer, but it costs more

Fits great to size and super lightweight!
The lightest multi-threat Express T-shirt with the soft armor is much lighter than I expected and is very flexible and comfortable to wear.
Purchased for “just in case” and got a very good two for one deal! Excellent turn around time from order to receiving. The “shirt” is lightweight and not uncomfortable. Will order more!
I like the lightweight comforter and feel of this product. I'm sure this vest will give me the protection I need.
This is the most comfortable and lite T-shirt with armor insert you will find. Its very flexible and easy to forget you're wearing it. Much better than others I own, again the weight or lack of is a huge selling point for me and after extensive searching National Body Armor came out on top, you wont be disappointed.
