Why 360 Over the Standard Shirt?
The most requested upgrade to our compression carrier has always been side protection. The 360 delivers, adding snug-fitting side panels for full wraparound coverage. Critical when you're seated in a vehicle, standing in a pew, or moving through crowds where flank shots are a real risk.

Protect your cardiac box
The Everyday Armor T-Shirt was intentionally designed to protect the Cardiac Box, which is considered one of the most lethal trauma areas on the human body. Blunt trauma or penetrating injuries to this area are often lethal, with research showing that over 90% of individuals with these injuries expire before arriving at the hospital.


Round | Velocity (ft/s) |
---|---|
9mm FMJ RN | ~1,400 ft/s |
.357 SIG FMJ FN | ~1,400 ft/s |
.44-mag SJHP | ~1,400 ft/s |
In addition to stopping penetration, the helmet must limit backface deformation to reduce blunt force trauma.

*Note: In the penetration column, "P" stands for partial penetration, meaning the bullet was captured by the armor and did not fully pass through. This is a successful result. A failure would be marked as "C" or "CP" for complete penetration, indicating the bullet fully passed through the armor.

FAQs

Not at all. They’re designed to lay flat and stay discreet under polos, button-ups, or duty wear.
Absolutely! Especially for those who appendix carry, the Everyday Armor T-Shirt is a great option to wear concealable armor without getting in the way of your CCW.
The outer t-shirt is machine washable. Simply remove the ballistic panels, then we recommend washing the t-shirt on gentle. Hang the t-shirt to dry.
