Proven Tactical Body Armor Protection

Our proven Panther™ Series tactical body armor is designed to be worn by law enforcement personnel who require maximum mobility. The EnGarde Panther™enjoys a great deal of popularity among NGOs and journalists as well due to its discreet appearance.

The basic configuration of the Panther™ offers NIJ Level IIIA protection, which can be raised to NIJ Level III or even Level IV if solid armor plates are added. This vest comes with a removable groin and neck/shoulder protection.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to government regulations we are not allowed to sell and ship NIJ Level IV ICW hard armor panels together with ballistic vests. These products need to be ordered separately (two payments) at our website and will always be shipped separately.

Available ballistic packages

The MT-PRO-GEN7™ is the advanced evolution of our MT-PRO™ panel, designed to outperform in every category: thinness, weight, flexibility, and protection. At just 6 mm thick, the MT-PRO-GEN7™ is 25% thinner than its predecessor and weighs only 4.8 kg/m², making it 10% lighter.

Despite its slimmer profile, it delivers reliable NIJ .06 Level IIIA protection, rigorously tested against the NIJ 0101.06 standard. A total of 56 samples underwent comprehensive testing at an NIJ-accredited laboratory to ensure performance.

Beyond standard threats, the MT-PRO-GEN7™ is proven to stop specialized rounds, including 9 mm Ranger SXT, 7.62×25 mm Tokarev, and 5.7×28 mm SS197. Special Threat testing also covers a contact shot from a 9 mm RUAG ACTION NP CN310 at approximately 460 m/s, in compliance with VPAM BSW 2006 standards.

Additionally, the MT-PRO-GEN7™ offers exceptional knife resistance, successfully stopping the P1 knife (15 Joules, <20 mm penetration) and the S1 knife (15 Joules, <1 mm penetration) in accordance with NIJ Standard 0115.00.

FLEX-PRO-IIIA panel

The FLEX-PRO™ is the lightest and most advanced ballistic package in the EnGarde® line of soft armor panels. It’s an ideal choice for customers looking for an extremely concealable solution with the highest level of protection. For this flexible panel we incorporated Dyneema® Force Multiplier Technology. The result is a soft armor panel that is one of the world’s lightest NIJ Level IIIA solutions.

The FLEX-PRO™ exceeds the latest NIJ standards for strength and durability while minimizing weight and maximizing flexibility and comfort. Uncompromising quality and advanced engineering is why the FLEX-PRO™ is our flagship product.
