Gone are the days of bulky ballistic body armor that restricts movement and overheats in the field. RTS Tactical compression shirts are purpose-built to absorb impact while allowing freedom of movement. The ultra-thin design disappears under uniforms or streetwear, offering a discreet option for professionals and civilians alike.
Each shirt is constructed from high-performance SpeedCoreX fabric, featuring four-way stretch, moisture-wicking material that resists odor, and retains shape even during extended wear. Reinforced mesh pockets hold front, back, and optional side armor panels securely in place, ensuring maximum coverage and comfort throughout your mission.
CERTIFIED BALLISTIC PERFORMANCE
These shirts are available with soft body armor panels rated at either:
- Level II (HG1): Designed to stop common handgun threats such as 9mm FMJ and .357 Magnum
- Level IIIA (HG2): Rated for higher-velocity rounds, including .44 Magnum and .357 SIG
All RTS Tactical ballistic panels are rigorously tested under the NIJ 0101.07 standard, ensuring compliance and performance in real-world ballistic threat environments. For maximum coverage and discreet wear, NIJ IIIA protection gives you a superior edge in high-threat environments without added bulk.
DESIGNED FOR ALL-DAY, ALL-MISSION WEAR
Every body armor shirt is crafted with tactical utility and everyday wearability in mind:
- Ultra-concealable armor compression fit eliminates printing and stays hidden beneath clothing
- Extended torso length (long cut) stays tucked beneath duty belts and tactical pants
- Sleeveless and short-sleeve options support layering, uniform integration, and seasonal flexibility
- Minimal weight compared to traditional ballistic vests or hard armor
Whether you’re suiting up for undercover operations, traveling light on executive detail, or seeking low-profile protection as a civilian, these lightweight bulletproof clothing options deliver. Departments can trial select gear through the Department Testing Program to validate performance before purchase.
