When it comes to law enforcement supplies, body armor is the one of the most important life saving tools an officer can employ after proper police training and situation based decision making. Besides the ability to save a life in the line of fire, body armor can give an officer increased confidence when serving in the field. There are many body armor manufacturers but only a few offer a great product with all the latest and greatest features and technology. One such body armor manufacturer is Armor Express based out of Michigan. All products are offered ala carte, meaning you can mix and match all necessary items which include ballistic inserts, carriers, and soft or hard trauma plates. The company makes both concealable,tactical and military models including also IED products, k9 armor, ballistic shields, helmets and ballistic blankets. Out of all the body armor manufacturers which include the biggest such as Point Blank and American Body Armor, without question the most comfortable would have to be Armor Express, period. The top of the line carriers and inserts are so comfortable and flexible, that it felt like we were wearing a sweatshirt instead of what most would consider a normal ballistic resistant vest. For reference this would be their Seraph inserts coupled with their Revolution carrier. The carrier is breathable, moisture wicking and anti-microbial with options to carry several sizes of trauma plates. Although not the least expensive option at over $1000 for a Level 3A, considering comfort and features, this was well worth the price in comparison to any other top line models of concealable armor available. The company also has several outer carrier options which include both tactical and regular duty outer carriers such as the police shirt vest and quilted outer cover. Lastly the office favorite was the Lo-Pro carrier which is essentially a knit t-shirt carrier that is breathable and moisture wicking for less than $100. When it comes to practical everyday wear, the Revolution carrier coupled with the Halo ballistic inserts seemed to be the most popular with prices ranging from approximately $700 to $900 and offering a mix of the latest technology, comfort offered at a lower price than the top of the line. The company also has an excellent line of stab resistant armor that is specifically targeted to the corrections and prison industries. Armor Express has a national dealer network with many offering measurement services and or try-ons. Some dealers are also ready to even travel far and wide to obtain measurements for larger groups or departments who include Police Equipment Depot out of Nashville and INTAPOL Industries out of Jersey City. Both companies have a very knowledgeable staff that stand ready to serve for the law enforcement community's needs for a full line of law enforcement supplies.
