MDM – Additional Photos of ArmorWorks Protective Combat Shirt Mod2

On Tuesday we showed you the new Protective Combat Shirt Mod2 from ArmorWorks but I wasn’t satisfied with the photos. I want you to see the various features of this innovative design. In particular, check out the shawl collar, ventilated torso and short sleeves. Many in the SOF community cut off their sleeves in the heat and ArmorWorks has acknowledged this by pairing it with an FR long sleeved undershirt.

This diamond shaped section is a jacquard mesh for ventilation.

The OD sections of the garment are a proprietary two-layer, double-sided Kevlar knit/jersey construction first used in the Protective Under Garment (PUG).

    Looks like something a Jedi Marine would wear.

    And will probably cost as much as a lightsaber.

    So, they cut off the sleeves to make it “cooler” (in all the senses of the word), but add a “shawl” collar?

      No zippers (to break or rust) or buttons under you body armor. Collar can be worn down or up to provide frag, FR & UV protection of your neck. It’s not the same old collar, but only time will tell whether it’s adopted.
