Full Discretion: Inside Premier Body Armor and Eberlestock’s FADE Collection Collaboration

GASTONIA, N.C. – November 4, 2024 – Premier Body Armor is proud to announce a custom collaboration with Eberlestock, bringing to market a tailored line of level IIIA ballistic armor inserts crafted precisely for Eberlestock’s new FADE collection. This partnership merges Eberlestock’s expertise in robust, modular bags with Premier Body Armor’s advanced ballistic protection, delivering an everyday carry solution that’s as covert as it is fully equipped. Designed for executive protection professionals, private security, and civilians alike, the FADE collection offers exceptional durability, functionality, and low-profile protection.
The new FADE collection ballistic inserts are meticulously designed to integrate seamlessly within Eberlestock’s bags, ensuring discretion and ease of use. Weighing approximately 1 lb. and only .22 inches thin, these TSA-approved inserts provide portable, effective protection against handgun and shotgun ballistic threats, while maintaining a streamlined profile. Additionally, these ballistic inserts offer custom cutouts for communication wires or hydration systems, allowing users to stay fully connected, protected, and prepared.

“Partnering with Eberlestock on the FADE collection showcases how performance, protection, and purpose work in tandem,” said Alex Stewart, President of Premier Body Armor. “Together, we’ve crafted a solution that lets people carry essential defense with confidence, whether in the professional field or navigating daily life, ultimately aligning with our commitment to equipping and safeguarding individuals in all their endeavors.”
Each ballistic insert of the FADE collection is made in the USA and crafted from the same premium material found in Premier Body Armor’s soft body armor vests, trusted by law enforcement nationwide. Rigorously tested to meet National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Level IIIA standards, these inserts withstand threats up to .44 magnum and 12 gauge shotgun, while retaining the flexibility needed for practical, everyday use.
