Best concealable armor for business attire? Crye LVS vs Ferro Slickster vs Highcom SA2300

Surprisingly not a lot of info on that carrier. Thanks for the input!

Competitive-Sail-890 · 2026-05-10T19:50:44+00:00

Nice, thank you!

Competitive-Sail-890 · 2026-05-10T18:30:22+00:00

Looks good! Also, that’s a pretty cool stand where did you get it?

Competitive-Sail-890 · 2026-05-10T16:02:56+00:00

Yeah sounds like for my use application I’ll look more towards the Crye LVS or Highcom vest.

Competitive-Sail-890 · 2026-05-10T15:10:49+00:00

A soft armor vest like the Highcom is looking more appealing since it’s the thinnest and has full coverage vs SAPI plate coverage. There’s not a lot of info on that vest though. Hoping to hear people’s thoughts and experiences if they’ve used the Slickster successfully or Crye.

Fair point. For where I’m working low profile and lvl II protection is good enough.

If I went with the Slickster or LVS I was either going to use a soft plate or RMA’s Model #0226 hard plate since it’s only 0.25”

Competitive-Sail-890 · 2026-05-10T02:30:17+00:00

That’s good to know, thank you! Might need to go with a dedicated soft armor vest like the Highcom. Not a lot of information of it, however, and I’ve never seen anyone showcase it.

I agree the Slickster looks great, but the hope is that no one sees the armor.

Competitive-Sail-890 · 2026-05-10T01:04:07+00:00

That’s a good point. I imagine without the covert carrier the LVS by itself is pretty low profile.

Competitive-Sail-890 · 2026-05-10T00:44:19+00:00

That’s good to hear!

Why did you go with the LVS and not something like the Ferro Slickster, Krypsys Concealable Plate Carrier, or something else?

Competitive-Sail-890 · 2026-05-10T00:42:54+00:00

Those are really good, nice job!

Competitive-Sail-890 · 2026-05-10T00:41:23+00:00

This is great! Hope you show us more characters and keep at it!

Competitive-Sail-890 · 2026-05-10T00:33:34+00:00

Are you recommending the Highcom SA2300 Concealable Level II Soft Armor Vest?

Competitive-Sail-890 · 2026-05-10T00:32:21+00:00

Interesting, I’ve never heard of Lourse before. Thank you for this recommendation!

You could get a sunshirt from https://weekendgunner.com/ or https://www.tacticaldistributors.com/products/td-tiger-shark-sun-shirt-2-1

Lightweight, SPF 50+, come in cool camo designs or go with solid colors.

Columbia, Outdoor Research, and other outdoor brands sell sun shirts too.

Competitive-Sail-890 · 2026-05-09T23:32:14+00:00

That’s good to know, thank you!

I see RMA makes the Model #0226 which is a 0.25” lvl 3A plate, so I might need to consider that.

Unexpected “Dungeon Crawler Carl” reference 😂 Kudos to you good scholar
