I had heard heard of Turtleskin slash protective armor in the past but didn’t know that it was a product of New Hampshire-based Warwick Mills. Turns out, they make all kinds of cool textiles like the dyed 100% Twaron fabric used in this ballistic combat shirt. That’s right, this combat shirt offers ballistic protection to the tune of 2gr @ 700 fps and 17 gr @ 1700 fps. The fabric also offers FR as well as cut protection.
They are also integrating this fabric into civilian clothing styles such as sport coats.

2gr @ 700 fps and 17 gr @ 1700 fps? Is that disordered? Seems counterintuitive.
