Very comfortable and concealable. I had been looking for body armor that I could wear with my every day clothes and that was less bulky than normal body armor. I found it in this T-Shirt. I purchased both the black and white carriers. Excellent in my opinion.

Taking into account the purchase of the Everyday Armor T-Shirt was supposed to be for a trip up north for an exceedingly large event I was asked to assist with, the amount of movement and areas I was going to need to \"blend in\" required something a little more discreet than the average slick plate carrier. In came the EA-T... and it worked a lot better than expected! I was comfortable throughout the entire assignment, covering mileage and flexibility while wearing the armored T-Shirt, and experiencing very little discomfort that I'd have received if I were wearing full on armor and carrier. Yeah, I definitely still felt my body temp to up a few times from all the running around, but it was not something detrimental to the performance. No chafing, no pinching, not even a loss of flexibility would stop me from elating the overall endurance test the armor and shirts went through. I stood next to several of the municipalities throughout the event, and quite a few asked why I wasn't wearing armor... the EA-T-Shirt and accompanying plates were, as a complete package, a success! I was able to educate a few of the individuals on what exactly I had on and guided them to the PBA website where they too could purchase their own. The event was in an area of questionable activities and being able to blend in discreetly definitely had its perks!
