"To Protect Those Who  Dare"

THE IMPACT 2001 SAFE-T ARMOR SAGA. CITRUS HEIGHTS, CALIFORNIA - USA

Impact 2001 Sport Armor Designs was established in 1993 to address the need for  an effective and versatile torso and limb protection system that would be manufactured in the United States and worn by the recreational or professional athelete. 

THE QUEST

In early 1993,  Sport Armor Designs undertook the ultimate in design projects;  To create a NEW,superior protection concept that would also incorporate features not offered by ANY current design. A daunting task, but achievable.

The decision was made that Impact's new design features would include;

  1. Components that could be removed , replaced or upgraded.
  2. Elements that could be interchanged or substituted to alter performance.
  3. Adjustable ergonomics.
  4. And the most revolutionary feature of all...The Expanding Protective Pouch!

What ultimately emerged from Impact's design staff was the most effective and destintive protection design the market place has ever seen.

Appropriately named Impact Safe-T Armor , prototype specimens were submitted to Cambridge University's prestigious clothing testing facility in Great Britain for impact dissipating worthiness testing.  This farsighted action was taken not only to assess the effectivness of Impact's innovative protection concept, but also to insure wearer safety during the subsequent six year competition phase of  Impact's rigorous wearability development program.  Impact Safe-T Armor is designed to exceed current European CE standards for sport body armor.
