Last week we had a post about a shirt that would be great for knife fights. Now, we have the perfect outer layer for that outfit. The bulletproof hoodie.
Developed by a company named Bladerunner, “The Defender Hoodie” has a special removable, bullet-proof insert that you can roll with when you want to put your hood on and get crazy. Here’s the description from the product page:
This Hoodie is rugged and tough just like a normal Hoodie but this one has a removable Inner Shell that gives you Balistic Security at Level NIJ STD 0101.04
The hoodie carries an expensive price tag as well, in the $600 range. Also, because the bullet proof portion of the hoodie is just an insert, that means there’s plenty that’s not protected (like your head, fool!).
Hoodies have always come with the connotation of being thuggish, gangster or trouble. Inserting a bullet proof vest into one is probably not a bad idea. While I’m saving up the $600, I’ll stick to my cost-saving bullet proof vest, i.e. duck-taping newspapers around my chest. Works every time!
