"After receiving requests from high-profile clients who travel to dangerous places for work, we set out to develop a lightweight, fashion-forward bulletproof suit as a more discreet and stylish alternative to wearing a bulky vest underneath," said Michael Nguyen, co-owner and bespoke tailor of Garrison Bespoke.

The Garrison Bespoke bulletproof suit is made with carbon nanotubes created using nanotechnology and originally developed to protect the US 19th Special Forces in Iraq. The patented material is thinner, more flexible and fifty per cent lighter than Kevlar, which is traditionally used for bulletproof gear. The Garrison Bespoke bulletproof suit also protects against stabbing - the carbon nanotubes harden on impact preventing a knife from penetrating.

The cost of a Garrison Bespoke bulletproof suit starts at $20,000.

The live ammo field-testing event tomorrow will demonstrate the suit's capabilities and offer a first look at Garrison Bespoke's new collection, Town & Country, inspired by the great outdoors. Each piece in the new collection can be made bulletproof by request.

Garrison Bespoke [http://garrisonbespoke.com] is a luxury menswear boutique in Toronto's Financial District that creates custom garments to help clients make their mark. Designed with modern style and classic foundations, Garrison Bespoke pieces are conservative enough to create credibility but unique enough to stand out. A sharp pinstripe suit with crushed jade woven into the cloth for good luck is one client's signature look. Secret suit pockets are the norm.

If you would like to attend the field testing event tomorrow, please contact Jennifer Love at Duet PR by email jennifer@duetpublicrelations.com or phone (416-271-5477).
