REVIEW: SKYLL Tactical Notebook Bag / protective vest

A small, black bag, very unobtrusive, but looks can be deceiving. We'll show you why you shouldn't underestimate this special bag from BEST PROTECTION.

The man of the world always carries a laptop bag with him. There's nothing more inconspicuous. Even better with a small Velcro area.

The front offers a small zippered pocket for documents, nothing groundbreaking new, one might think.

The back looks smooth, but as we all know, it's what's on the inside that counts, let's see.

Unusual for a laptop bag is the all-round zipper, let's open it.

Here is the bag fully opened and unfolded. So this is not a normal bag.

The all-round zipper now makes sense, because it is a cleverly disguised plate carrier.

Problems with the environment? The handbag is always there. You immediately feel safer and more confident. In case of emergency, the bag turns into a full-fledged plate carrier. Let's put it on.

This is what the finished product looks like on a man. At first glance, there is no big difference to various slick plate carriers. Only the zipper at the edge looks a bit out of place.

The good piece is closed with an elastic cummerbund and Velcro. A solid solution, in our opinion.

The back of the SKYLL Tactical Notebook Bag / Protection Vest also functions as a plate carrier like normal.

You can access the plate compartment through the bottom of the panels. It can fit both soft and hard ballistic panels, or a combination of both. There is webbing inside to secure the protective plate.

In our case, we only have a soft ballistic insert Class NIJ Lvl IIIa from BEST PROTECTION in it. So we are protected from most handgun calibers.

CONCLUSION: If you need a quick protective cover against long or short firearms, the SKYLL Tactical Notebook Bag/Protection Vest with corresponding protective inserts is a good choice. The advantage of the SKYLL is that you can carry it very discreetly. The wearing comfort is relatively good, but not necessarily for daily, hours-long use. This carrier focuses on fast, covert protection. Ready packed in the car, take it to appointments. We don't want to know what kind of customers you have... 

You can get the SKYLL Tactical Notebook Bag/Protection Vest at BEST PROTECTION for 69.95 Euro in olive and black. The ballistic protection must be purchased separately. The NIJ Level 3A Ballistic Insert for Plate Carrier 33x27cm is available at BEST PROTECTION starting at 104.95 Euro (1 piece)
