BorisGreat Jacket!
Very happy with my purchase. Jacket is light and easy to put on once you get the hang of it. Also gotta play around with the front side body armor at first to make sure it’s centered properly. Highly recommend using an OWB good holster along with the jacket for quick draw. Once you wear the jacket you can have a concealed gripped on your weapon through the fake pockets and ready for draw. I’d also just leave the buttons unbuttoned if in Cooper’s condition yellow/orange for an even quicker draw. Overall very happy with it.
C.D. BartlettCouldn't have been better!
Dear Bodyguard Team, I have ordered several Body guard products and my experiences couldn't have been better! My orders have been taken quickly and accurately; information has been provided for tracking; delivery has been accomplished without problem. The products themselves have performed as advertised. Thank you!!

ChrisMore than I expected.
Very good product , more than I expected.
JoeExcellent Customer Service!
Initially when I received my BodyGuard Switchblade backpack, the seams on one of the deployment straps very quickly broke off after just a few test runs. I think I was unfortunate in receiving one with a manufacturing defect but luckily it didn't remain an issue because after contacting the Bodyguard team, Damian contacted me in literally 10 minutes to resolve the issue. I'm very impressed with Bodyguard's customer service as there was no hesitation to stand by their product and fix the issue. They sent me a replacement piece, which was very easy to install in the backpack, and the backpack has been great ever since replacing that one piece. Sometimes manufacturing defects happen, but because Bodyguard was so great about replacing the defect I can't fault them at all for it. Overall, I've been very satisfied with this backpack and I would certainly recommend Bodyguard to anyone who is looking for this kind of product!
Dan DellingerBuilt Tough
This is a well built pack that I can depend on when the going gets tough. It's tough exterior, heavy zippers and clips, and excellent use of heavy Velcro provide me with a level of confidence that I wouldn't have with other packs built for a similar purpose. Great job, Bodyguard Team!
ToddGreat Quality
I love this backpack. The quality and fit are great. easy to pack and use. The front body armor is a bit tight in the beginning, but you get used to it and can break it in pretty readily. I would recommend this product for sure!!
AdamWorks Great!!
Was worried about volume with the level 3 plates...but my Switchblade Backpack has great storage volume. Only downside would be needing much more colors. It definitely doesn't look like it’s bulletproof ...or that I’m conceal carrying.
Steven McCutcheonWhy not?
I haven’t really used it, but you never know when you might need it. Plenty of room and I will definitely be taking it out when I am at sporting events for my kids because things are getting crazy!
Raymond SchulteBest stealth body armor!
I love my elite backpack! This looks like any normal backpack but with the pull of 2 straps becomes instant body armor! I love how I can utilize different armor plates depending upon the threat environment by simply swapping them out. This backpack is a winner!
T SuggsWill Try Out New Jacket In Oakland CA
Just received my jacket last week. Will be back at work in the Bay Area this week wearing it. Ordered XL, the fit is good. I did not want a tight fit that prints the ballistic panels. Obviously I don’t want to actually have to test it out under real live fire conditions. My only complaint is I wish they came in different colors.
C. D. BartlettGreat Product
Body Guard is a great product - very innovative. The bullet shields fit easily into the fabric pockets. Great product, although I'm glad I haven't had it tested yet !!
SamuelLove My Bodyguards!!!
My wife and I love our bags for multiple reasons... -makes you feel safer; especially seeing how crazy the world is lately. -comfortable -adjustable to your fit -I would recommend it for parents with kids in school ( obviously tell your kids not to tell anyone about it) -it is a good all-around bag it stores quite a bit of stuff. Customer Service is AMAZING!!!! answered all my questions bags got shipped and delivered ridiculously fast ( less than a week) the biggest thing for me was it is all sourced and constructed in the USA!!! My wife and I take our bags everywhere and it gives us an extra layer of safety. 17 lbs might sound like a lot of weight for a backpack but it's a great way to get a little exercise (obviously depends on what you put in it) but its better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it. They also have soft armor (7 lbs total)
GeorgeExcellent Product
My Peacemaker is extremely well made, and well fitting as well as being comfortable.
MelA little Peace of Mind
What can I do to help law enforcement stop all the shooting. 1. Do not be a shooting victim. 2. Mitigate the danger of shootings. to law enforcement and the public with prejudice.. The use of Bodyguard Armored Backpacks and Jackets is my first step in saving lives from mass shootings including my own. Live well Love much & Laugh often for good health!

C. D. BartlettEasy to Use. Really Well Made
I received my Bodyguard Backpack in good condition and assembled the plates and vest easily. I have put on the vest and gone through the deployment routine a several times without trouble - it's very intuitive.
D.S.RamaThis Backpack is Boss!!
Awesome design and functionality on my Switchblade. This puppy comes out smooth from the pack with a plate and is snug when deployed. Serious protection.
MarkBetter than Expected
When I order things online I automatically temper my expectation. The pack I received is robust and as advertised. I work at an automotive factory and the belt seems as secure as a seat belt. . Thank You.
DaveProfessional Level Pack
The pack is well designed for its purpose, a covert active shooter bag. The pack has great feel, fit and functionality. I am in LE and like to have some stuff at the ready and this makes it easy to have some go to items on hand without telegraphing you have a tactical vest on you, but you do! If you are looking for a pack like this you won't go wrong with this one. Well designed and executed with quality components and attention to detail. A kel-tec sub gun fits in there nicely by the way.
Dharma S RamaAmazing Design and Build
Very well-designed, comfortable, and sturdy. Very easy to deploy and use.
AndrewAwesome
It’s simple and easy to deploy armor. At the same time it’s versatile and kicks ass
KoriGreat product and received quickly
I love my body guard back pack. I have it in my car as a get home bag if needed. It is good quality and it came quickly without any trouble. Thank you!
DrewAwesome
Simple awesome, deploying the armor is quick
SeanFeels like CONFIDENCE!!!
WOW! Backpack arrived today and I am amazed by the prompt turnaround time! Loading the plates and fitting the straps is very intuitive, and the first time I “let her rip” the system worked like a charm! Very smooth. Can’t thank you enough for your time and commitment to this work, Damian - I know that when I’m carrying this pack at work, serving clients in various environments, I will remember the gravity and security of this product, which will ease my mind and enable me to give 100% to my client.
Darron OlsonQuality product. Well designed.
The backpack fits comfortably. I enjoy wearing it over my bpv. Deployment is fast.
Thomas MohrThe Elite Backpack is essential!
Love the Elite backpack. Keeps a low profile so nobody knows what it can really do. I was actually able to fit two 11x14 level IV armor plates. The Elite is really well made and conceals everything perfectly. I only bring this bag with me when I'm working in the office, as we've had two active shooters in our building just in the past year. With this bag now, I have some peace of mind knowing that I have a fighting chance against an AR-15/AK-47.
Joseph P.High Quality and Armored
I've been lugging around backpacks for 40+ years and I can personally confirm this is a high quality backpack. I've never seen anything quite like this and have enjoyed carrying it to work and during play for the past week, with no issues. It took a few tries to get the armor properly packed and learn how to pull and attach the front section, but now I can do it with ease. Impresses every friend I show it too. I'll get my wife the smaller version for christmas.
Todd SantosGreat concealed armor
One of the best purchases I’ve made when it comes to being ready for defense. Easy to carry and deploy love this concept and the armor. Would highly recommend this product to off duty law enforcement or just your average concealed carry citizen. Great product for a mass shooter scenario god forbidden but prepare for the worst and hope for the best.
LennyNice
Nice jacket. Fits well. I like jacket much Thank you!
AndrewVery Happy
I purchased two backpacks, one for myself and one for my middle school aged daughter. I am very pleased with how quickly she can deploy the system. Biggest feedback I get from her is the weight of the backpack, which is something people have to accept. But overall, excellent product and I feel very secure now having the ability to deploy anywhere.
LaMont WashingtonTaking My Switchblade on the Road...
There is a lot of room and space available. If traveling out of town I plan on using it. I think its a great option for carrying needed items and providing safety.
Gilbert MamauagTwo words…
Very nice!
NguyenGood backpack
Love the backpack, same as the picture, my friend love the purpose of it and he would like to buy one.
EdgarNice
Love it nice and easy and convenient l don’t leave home without it now that I got it Thank you planning to buy another one soon for my daughter and Son
PierreGreat Bag Use it Every Day!!
I bought the first responder and am using it daily! I have used body armor before in a hot environment I ended up using it only at night, but this bag I can hang it to the back of front passenger seat protecting the passenger and put it on dismounting daily no one is the wiser. I cannot be happier it is perfect. As an addition you can add rifle plates on top of the llla soft panels as needed. The front chest plate has molly which converts to a range rig and range bag for a large pistol or pdw. Very happy with it a great tool for protection anywhere. God Bless - Pierre
Jack HamiltonGreat Bag Great Company
I really like the design and peace of mind. Thank you for quick turnaround and your good communication during the exchange. I will highly recommend your business to anyone.Thank You, Jack Hamilton
D McKeeverSmall Price to Pay for Safety...
My boys feel safer and have no issues with their new protective backpacks. The weight is more than they expected, but since they dont have to carry books anymore in lieu of a laptop, it all balanced out. A small price to pay for safety.
Ed ChavezDifferent Times
The concept is outstanding and really like that you can use different sizes of soft armor. The pack is comfortable, spacious, and sturdy enough for the job. There are other packs out there; but this pack is the most innovative. Recommended.
Dennis KurianGood Pack
Bought this for my daughter for High School. I was surprised at the weight of the plates. They are very light. Setup was fairly easy. So far my daughter has no complaints but she has only been carrying it for 3 school days.
Marc H. Tacoma, Washington USASmall small price for peace of mind
I'm a grandpa just trying to cover base here for the kids; product is great - I especially like the durability of the construction. Discrete and to the point. One less worry in a time full of worries.
Ann M. Phoenix, AZ USAA Practical gift for unpractical times.
This is a Christmas gift, so he won't see it til then, but being young in this crazy world, another layer of security gives us both piece of mind, Its not that heavy to fit into his current backpack.
Ken, A. Cocoa Beach, Florida USASimply awesome!
First Responder is such a practical , well developed product with attention to detail such as the magnetic closures. Ample room for storage and comfortable when fully deployed. Great job!
Marlena C. Miami, Florida USAGreat customer service!
I live in a condo and somehow when filling out the address info on my order the unit number did not autofill as it usually does so my order was sent back. I reached out to customer service and Greg was super helpful in getting the address updated and sent me the package again without charging me for the additional shipping. Thanks again Greg!
Frank B. Aurora, CO, USANext Level Bug Out Bag
This took my bug out bag to the next level. Rifle plates, extra ammo and a few other essentials for when the SHTF. Plus it's tough as nails.
Keith C. Los Angeles, CAThe Real Deal
This backpack is the real deal. I was impressed with the quality, very solid construction and tons of space for gym clothes, laptop. I have been wearing it all the time.
Steve J. Greenbrook, N.Y USAI Love This Thing!
I have to tell you - I love showing this thing off. The guys at the range love it...I should have bought 10 more! It took a little while to get, but was definitely worth the wait.
David S. Autsin, TX. USATaking it to College
I got one for school and I love it. I can carry my computer and much more. I'm really glad I have it because you never know.
Nick B. New York, N.Y. USAPerfect Travel Bag
I travel a lot for work and it's like having insurance, I'd rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it.
