This is what Civilian makes. Our gear uses UHMWPE (ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene) panels. Translation: it’ll stop 9mm, .40, .45, .357 SIG, .44 Magnum, and other common handgun rounds. It’s flexible. It’s light. You can wear it all day and not look like you’re smuggling a waffle iron under your hoodie.

Built to protect. Designed to rotate. Easy to wash.

This is the question everyone asks. Doesn’t matter if they whisper it or shout it—it’s the first thing out of their mouth:“Okay... but what will it stop?”
