Suit Of Armour: Man Creates Bulletproof Outfit
A bespoke tailoring house in Toronto today unveiled a hand-tailored three-piece 'bulletproof' suit.
The outfit has been made with several sheets of carbon nano-tubes - a state-of-the-art puncture-proof
and bullet-resistant material sourced through a company that provides anti-ballistic gear for the U.S. Army Special Forces.
The patented material is thinner, more flexible and 50 per cent stronger than Kevlar, the traditional material used for bulletproof gear.
In an added bonus, the suit also protects against stabbing, with the carbon nano-tubes created to harden on impact, preventing a knife from penetrating through.
While Garrison Bespoke announced that all the suits in their new line, called Town & Country, can be made bulletproof by request, it doesn't come cheap.
Prices start at $20,000 or 1.75 million Kenya shillings.
