Premier Body Armor BPP9023 Kevlar Backpack Panel 9.5x9.5 Cordura

The Premier Body Armor BPP9023 transforms any compatible backpack into discreet ballistic protection with its lightweight Kevlar core construction. This low-profile panel slides seamlessly into laptop compartments, providing Level IIIA protection without compromising mobility or drawing attention.

What Makes This Different

Unlike bulky tactical vests, this panel measures just 0.22 inches thick while maintaining full NIJ Level IIIA certification. The 500D Cordura shell resists tears and abrasion better than standard nylon alternatives. Most competing panels sacrifice durability for thinness, but Premier's multi-layer design delivers both protection and longevity in a package that weighs under 1.5 pounds.
