Bulletproof Backpacks By Leatherback Gear

When it comes to your safety and the safety of your loved ones, there's no room for compromise.

The FBI in 2021 designated 61 shootings as active shooter incidents in the US, which included public and private places such as malls, public transit, grocery stores, warehouses, and festivals. And, sadly, on the list were also schools; elementary, high school, and college.

This has left many feeling vulnerable and unsure of what steps they can take to protect their self and loved ones. Knowing what to do and having the right gear available to protect yourself can make all the difference.

Knowing what to do:

There are resources online to help people learn how to handle active shooter incidents and here are a few of those helpful resources;

 

Having the right gear:

One option for having the right gear can be as easy as buying a backpack!  Backpacks historically have had one purpose; to carry and protect items that you need for work, travel, school, etc. Leatherback Gear has designed a backpack that stores and protects your valuable items and protects your body. But, more importantly, it gives you an increased sense of security wherever you go.


HOW DOES A BACKBACK PROTECT?

Here are a just a few protective features:

  • The "backpack to bulletproof" design, is made so you can simply pull on the red zipper to separate the backpack into two parts creating an armored vest within seconds.
  • Front & Back Protection - When worn as a vest, you'll have one bulletproof panel protecting your front, and one bulletproof panel protecting your back.
  • Leatherback's bulletproof panels have *NIJ rated level IIA protection, which is the same level of protection trusted by law enforcement in the USA and most of the world.
  • Two Bulletproof Panel Inserts - Two bulletproof panels are hidden inside of the backpack, so you can move around protected without anyone noticing.
  • Designed to Protect You Against - Handgun rounds up to .44 magnum, 9mm submachine gun rounds, or 12 gauge shotgun slugs.

We have a really unique product in our showroom and on our website called the Minuteman Gun Safes by Hayman Safe.

How to Prepare for a Long-term Power Outage

It’s nothing short of a miracle that we’ve progressed as far as we have since the industrial era. We’ve built machines. We’ve conquered space. We’ve made life easier (so it seems). But the fact remains⸺ nothing lasts forever, even good times.

The Safe by Mykel Hawke (Survival Expert)

Valuables can be something as simple as old family photos or important administrative documents. No matter what they are, or how they’re defined, we all have something we care for and want to protect.
