Fits Better, Feels Better!
Besides being stylish and loaded with features, the ZERO-G’s unique shape is the result of extensive research into applied biometrics. Biometrics turned out to be the key to designing a vest with maximum comfort and wearability. Biometric data were collected from hundreds of male and female armor wearers and then carefully analyzed. The result is a vest with over 400 unique panel shapes designed to fit virtually any body type. Whether you have an athletic build, or you’re just a little larger around the middle, the ZERO-G’s SmartFit sizing system assures a perfect fit every time. Armor that fits better, feels better!
Futuristic Styling
The ZERO-G’s revolutionary new design not only looks futuristic, it takes you there 20 ways! ZERO-G ARMORWEAR delivers range of motion, comfort and performance like no other vest in history. Period!
Pro Sports Fabrics
The ZERO-G’s styling and looks actually stem from its many design features and the wide range of specialized materials used in its construction. Many of the unusual fabrics were selected because of their proven performance in action sports apparel. The demands of today’s pro sports on fabrics and fasteners have resulted in many new and innovative materials being developed over the past few years.
That "Downhill Racer" Look
We’ve all seen the Winter Olympics and those space-aged looking downhill skiers with their colorful lightweight clothing. No armor company has ever before tapped the potential of these many new performance material technologies, other than in the ballistic package itself. The ZERO-G’s abrasion resistant, snag resistant, breathable and self-wicking fabrics all combine to deliver the ultimate in comfort and wearability. Even the required NIJ safety labels have been converted into stylish graphics printed directly on the fabrics, just like the ski brand imprints you see on TV.
100 MPH in The Mirror!
The end result is a vest that makes you look like you’re going a hundred miles per hour the moment you put it on. Besides feeling ultra-comfortable, its unique angular shape even makes you feel a little slimmer and trimmer. Most people that try one on break into a smile the moment they look into a mirror. Once you’ve experienced ZERO-G, there’s absolutely no comparison.
