Bulletproof Hoodies are the Smart Choice for Everyday Protection

Wearing protective gear everywhere you go may seem paranoid. But the reality is that mass shootings and tragic accidents happen every day in our country -- and no place is totally safe. Fortunately, recent manufacturing advancements have made protective gear more wearable and affordable than ever before. For example, bulletproof hoodies blend casual wear with body armor to create stylish, potentially life-saving apparel.

Appropriate for both youths and adults, these hoodies feature detachable, overlapping Kevlar panels to protect your torso. You can also put the hood up for discreet head protection as well. Few products shield all the most vulnerable areas of the body like this. Furthermore, bulletproof hoodies are surprisingly light; they usually range between 6 to 9 pounds, which feels negligible when spread over your entire torso. Despite their light weight, they offer NIJ Level IIIA protection.

With an adult-sized hoodie, you can feel safer anywhere you go, whether it’s a crowded event or a quiet neighborhood. Likewise, pairing a youth-sized hoodie with a bulletproof backpack offers both parent and child greater peace of mind. Explore your options today to learn how you can better protect yourself and your loved ones. It may be the most important clothing purchase you ever make.

One World Outdoor Gear’s Safety-Focused School Program

In a world where school shootings are a semi-regular news topic, it can feel frustrating to try and protect young learners when policies, procedures, facilities, and other important aspects of safety seem out of your control. Even so, education is an invaluable resource, and students shouldn’t have to live in fear because they lack the ability to react effectively in the event of a crisis. That’s why One World Outdoor Gear offers schools and districts in the New York metropolitan area access to our bulletproof backpack inserts.

These products offer a high level of protection -- comparable with the equipment used by police. Made in four sizes, they fit almost any backpack and can be customized as part of our partnership with schools that value safety. 

When paired with effective measures from the administration and preparation from concerned parents, these supplemental self-defense devices provide actionable steps that kids can take in an emergency. Unlike many other methods of protection, they also don’t increase risk or disrupt education by being present in schools. If you’re looking for ways to help yourself and your students feel safer, these make ideal investments that add a personal layer of defense when it’s needed most.

Stay Safe in Style with a Bulletproof Sports Coat

From active shooters to everyday accidents, it’s impossible to predict when one wrong bullet might make its way into your life. That doesn’t mean you can’t prepare. The best protection often comes from gear that doubles as regular apparel. Luckily, advancements in technology make shooting safety more stylish and accessible than ever. One option that many hunters, hobby shooters, and general self-defense enthusiasts rely on is the bulletproof sports coat.

Visually indistinguishable from many popular coats and durable enough to provide protection anywhere you might go; this specialized product can come packed with safety features, such as:

• ID Labels
• Reflective Logos
• Warm Lining
• Waterproof Materials

Most importantly, though, they can save lives when it matters most. Whether a fellow outdoorsman accidentally fires from a distance or a malicious individual decides to take out his frustrations on a crowd, few things offer the same kind of safety as wearable bulletproof garments.

What makes sports coats with this protection built in so valuable is the fact that you can wear them at any time. Kevlar vests aren’t exactly appropriate attire for the average day out, and the unpredictability of gun-based violence often leaves little time to change or retrieve protective wear. With a fashionable coat, you stay ready for potential threats.
