Bulletproof "Defender" sweater launches

Hoodie offers protection from, er, hoodies?

Bulletproof

2 April 2008 16:05 GMT / By Amy-Mae Elliott

This innocuous looking item of clothing offers 2mm of Type IIA bulletproofing, apparently enough to stop a 9mm full metal jacket round at a velocity of 1090 feet-per-second.

Priced at around the £300 mark, it'll be on sale from Bladerunner in the next month or so.
