All SAVVY ballistic panels are covered with a waterproof, breathable Gore-Tex® fabric panel covering. This fabric prevents water and contaminates, such as body oils and salts from penetrating into the panels, improving hygiene and reducing unpleasant odor. The fabric incorporates a Gore-Tex membrane that allows moisture vapor from perspiration to escape, which also enhances comfort. With a thin, light Gore-Tex fabric panel covering their body armor, officers can focus on more important things like protecting life.
Although waterproof and breathable are two of the most important characteristics in a fabric panel covering, Gore-Tex fabric offers so much more. The durable fabric is long lasting and maintains its ability to perform in a wide variety of environmental conditions. Not only is Gore-Tex fabric laboratory tested, but it’s also field tested to ensure suitability for the intended use. Even more, Gore-Tex fabric is easy to clean – just wipe with a wet, soapy cloth and rinse with a clean wet cloth.
