I couldn't be happier with my experience purchasing the OmniProtect OPX-ULTRA body armor.
Before I placed my order, Amir actually took the time to call me personally to make sure I was ordering the correct configuration for my needs. That level of customer service is incredibly rare these days and immediately gave me confidence that OmniProtect genuinely cares about its customers—not just making a sale.
The armor arrived quickly, was packaged exceptionally well, and the craftsmanship is immediately apparent. Every component feels like it was manufactured with precision and attention to detail. The carrier is comfortable, fits extremely well, and provides excellent mobility while still feeling secure.
Thankfully, I haven't had to put the armor to the ultimate test, and I sincerely hope I never do. But after seeing the quality of the materials, construction, and engineering firsthand, I have complete confidence in my purchase. It's reassuring to know that if I ever need it, I'll be wearing equipment built to such a high standard.
If you're looking for premium body armor backed by outstanding customer support, I highly recommend OmniProtect. Amir and the entire team have earned a customer for life.
I bought the body armor at a prior Miami Gun Show and it is fantastic. Highly recommended.
Great for concealment, and the representatives at the Nations Gun Show will make sure you get what you need. Top quality material and customer support.
I was very impressed with this company both when I first met them and saw their product and now that I have the product I really think it’s gonna be wonderful
I was impressed likewise with the service they provided, calling me directly from their cell phones to make sure that I was making it order correctly and then once your order was made to confirm that they had received it and shipped out and I had it within three days
That is some of the best customer service I have received from any company in a number of years

OPX-ULTRA Concealable Body Armor HG2+ | NIJ .07, Knife Stab Level 1
The rep who helped us at the show was very knowledgeable and proficient. She spent a significant time with us to answer questions and fit test us.
I had a wonderful experience with Amir and he took care of me and I couldn't have you know expected anything better
I recently purchased this vest and I am really happy I did. It fits amazingly. And is thin and pretty damn concealable for everyday wear. I don't get overheated and it feels very comfortable.
Saw this product at the Nation's Gun Show in Dulles, VA. I was promptly fitted and told the proper size (XS), which ended up being perfect. While they had sold all their XS stock with them, the helpful duo (Amir & Amelie) placed the order and promised to ship the item right away once they had returned to Atlanta. Not only did they ship out ASAP, the item arrived quickly as well.
Upon arrival I promptly unpacked it and wore it around my property, doing yard work and other activities to see how it would fit and move with me. It was comfortable and did not hinder movement at all.
Its low profile fits nicely under flannels and light jackets. A coworker of mine was very impressed with it, so much so that I gifted her mine. Now it's time to pick up another!
It fits amazing. It is lightweight and comfortable. Concealment and a great value. We work at gun shows and have every type of armor out there. This is the best product.
The best thing is the assistance and knowledge of the sales staff. They really know their stuff and care to make the best options for the customer. I bought one for me and one for my wife.
I first saw these at the gun show but waited to save up the purchase price until the next show. They weren't at the next show so I waited until I saw them again. I am very glad I did.
The OPX-ULTRA is incredibly light weight. There is no weight on your shoulders at all. The wrap around adjustable side straps keep the vest nice and snug… it’s like wearing a hug all day. The plate carrier is machine washable…. I just remove the “ plates” throw the vest in the machine and hang it to dry.
The rating for safety on this body armor is exceptional.
I wear it over a tee-shirt and then my shirt goes on over the vest…. No one would even know it’s there. If you have any questions before, during or after you order, I can tell you the customer service is 5-star👍
I highly recommend for men, women, and kids. Best to be safe at large events, work, or the range. Nowadays you just never know when the sh** will hit the fan.
Thanks to the guys at OmniPROTEX for making an exceptional product.
Fits great
The vest is very comfortable, movement is not hindered at all , can be worn under normal clothes
Omniprotex has an amazing product that is unmatched in the field of body armor. Emily and Amir were extremely knowledgeable and kind when describing their product and answering questions. Easily concealable underneath looses fitting clothing and almost undetectable outside of clothing due to the design of the product. Ot coukd easily be mistaken for a exercise vest, versus traditional body armor. Great price point for the performance and a must have in this current state of society.
OPX Elite Concealable Body Armor IIIA+ | NIJ .06 Certified

Awesome fit and comfort with this awesome protective gear! A+ rating!
Amir and Amelie were very thorough and professional. Product is very comfortable. I hope I never have to find out if it really works! Purchased at NRA great America outdoor show 2024.
OPX Elite Concealable Body Armor IIIA/HG2 | NIJ .06 Certified, Spacer Mesh
Thankfully, I haven't had to evaluate the function of the armor, but if it's half as good as the customer service, I'm certain it will be outstanding. I ordered a size up from what would actually fit me. I called and the company was extremely accommodating, simply asking me to return the product for a replacement in the proper size. I had the new vest within a week of calling. Be advised, the sizes run bit bigger than what you'd wear in a shirt. Once I received the proper sized armor, I was extremely impressed with the fit and comfort of the vest. Donning/doffing is also easy with both the front velcro and side zippers as options. Having worn military flak jackets for 20 years, the lighter weight and ease of movement with this vest is a welcome change and will undoubtedly be another plus if ever used in a SHTF situation. All in all, extremely impressed with the product and even more with the company that stands behind it.
I've worn vests for more than half my life. The feel of this vest is perfect and perfect from day 1. I've had dept. issued vest and I've purchased personally and it took months of daily use to break them in. Omni felt perfect on the first wear and now 15days in and it's even better. I can't attest to the bullet resistance as I pray never to test but the quality feel and documented test I am confident it won't fail me
The OPX Elite is an excellent product that is well worth the price. The level of protection for the price is second to none. It is lightweight and very comfortable to wear. The investment in this level of protection is one I would recommend to anyone.
Over the past years I have purchased other body armor before discovering OPX Elite Concealable Body Armor IIIA+. This one is now at the top of my list and all that I need to feel safe and secure. That's why I purchased a second one about 3 months after purchasing my first one!!
Comfortable great fit. Right level of protection. I bought early at a great price. I know they have gone up and will likely again. Worth the “now”price.
Best Point: Light Weight and does not trap the hit until temperature goes over 95 degrees. Stopped a knife stab with no problem. Thank God I can not speak about bullet stoppage at this time.
Fast, comfortable, high coverage , with just a duty rig . Level I
Wears well without chafing , under tac vest . Level II
Wears well and pads well under plate armor vest . Level III
Never leave home without it .
Super comfortable
Still waiting to get shot to give the full review… but so far so good..
