From fleece bullet proof vests to your most elaborate vision

A single-material fleece bullet proof vest with no branding is straightforward factory work. A fully developed custom construction featuring embroidery - stitched thread logos layered across panels and pockets - is the kind of build our production team handles every week. For most brands, the elaborate end is the standard brief, not the exception.
