The world's toughest fabric on cuts, tears and punctures. Made by Warwick Mills, Inc. who patented this lightweight, waterproof, comfortable fabric (patent 5565264 & 5837623 and patent pending).
Professionals at the Kentucky Reptile Zoo have tested them with their collection.
Warwick also tested simulated snake strikes using 0.05" diameter needles at 2.63 joules successfully with no penetration, and a 0.042 needle at 2.37 pounds, which had a penetration limit of .03". So, though it is
not penetration proof, it gives very good protection with comfortable wearable fabric less than three sheets of paper thick.
Full coverage chaps repels punctures in the legs from the knee to the ankle, with partial protection from knee to hip. This is great for hikers, hunters, herpers, cowboys and other horse riders out there. Available in three fabric colors, Khaki, Camo, and Sage.
A note about TurtleSkin SnakeArmor®. It is not completely snakebite proof, so care and diligence should still be taken when using this or any animal handling equipment.
