Description
Overview
The protection of a vest is now available in a lightweight, concealable t-shirt! The Everyday Armor T-Shirt is designed to fit close to the body. When choosing a size, we recommend sizing down. The EAT is designed to be worn as a compressed undershirt, which helps to conceal the armor.
- Bundle Includes:
- One (1) Gen 2 Everyday Armor T-Shirt (size down)
- Two (2) PBA Level IIIA Armor Inserts (Coming in at only .8 lb per panel the whole package only weighs about 2lbs)
The new Everyday Armor T-Shirt 2.0 keeps all the breathability and convenience of the 1st generation model but increases in concealability and comfort.
Like its predecessor, the 2.0 is designed around custom, USA sourced and made level IIIA ballistic inserts. The 7.75" x 12.75" size of the ballistics was determined to be the optimal size to cover the Cardiac Box while maximizing concealability. This is the vital area of coverage as it is not only a common target area, but is also likely lethal if there is penetrating trauma here. Injuries outside this region are more easily treated with bleed control technologies.
You get two of these ballistic inserts in the bundle and they carry a 5-year warranty. Ballistics from the Gen 1 Everyday Armor T-Shirt are also compatible with this new shirt.
The 2.0 shirt carries over the moisture-wicking, antimicrobial polyester which helps remove heat and moisture from the surface of the skin. They both also have an integrated weight-bearing support system that is strong, yet soft and flexible.
Now what’s new?
The armor pocket has been moved from top-opening to the bottom-opening. This simple change now allows the shirt to be more easily put on with the ballistics inserted. The second and most important improvement is the addition of our new Concealment Channels. This addition to the support system pulls the armor closer to the body, and increases concealability up to 50% more!

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.

Sizing
The Everyday Armor T-shirt is designed to be worn as a compressed undershirt, necessary to best conceal the armor. When choosing a size, we recommend sizing down from your normal T-shirt size for the best concealability. If you typically wear a size Large T-shirt, please order a Medium Everyday Armor T-shirt.
