HERE IS A QUOTE FROM CUSTOM COLLARS OWN WEB PAGE, THOUGHT IT WOULD WORTH THE READ. I TRUST 100% IN THERE VEST BUT TO EACH HIS OWN
Want to know why we choose ballistic nylon over Kevlar? When hunting hogs it is a given that the dog is either going to sweat or get into water. Kevlar loses its effectiveness when it gets wet. We have some competitors that say this isn't true and that it is more effective than the ballistic nylon. Please do yourself a favor and click on the link and see what the U.S. Department of Justice says.
We will not try to decide for you, just inform you. We are located only 35 miles from one of the plants that make the bullet proof vests and they told us that Kevlar is ONLY effective in multiple layers, but is not effective if exposed to UV light and water. You can also visit Dupont's website and see the technical data on stab resistant vests and they have to be 18-22 layers.
HERE IS A LINK WHERE YOU CAN SEE THERE INFO AND LINK OUT TO SUPPORT THERE CLAIMS, the dept. of justice info is under Body Armour, the topics A-Z catagorey
