Plate Carrier Setup: Velocity Scarab Soft armor is easier to conceal under everyday clothing. These vests are made to closely fit the body and do not have the pockets and customization potential of a plate carrier that is worn over clothing. Those who want extra protection while commuting during times of unrest or who work in occupations that can be targets for extremist actions might consider soft armor. Although rifle rounds will penetrate soft armor, the typical handgun rounds that are used in the average robbery or shooting will be stopped. Here is an example of a soft armor vest that is specifically designed for someone who has to dress for the office.
Hard armor consists of steel or ceramic plates that are often coated to prevent splintering on impact. Steel plates are heavier but cost less and can handle multiple shots in the same area better than ceramic composite plates. Hard armor has different “cuts” to accommodate specific needs. For example, you can get a swimmer’s cut that makes movement easier.
