Fashion for the Targeted
07/29/2008

Attention wealthy industrialists, unpopular dictators, wiseguys and gangsta rappers: If you're worried about getting shot or stabbed, forget the embarrassment and restrictiveness of big, bulky bulletproof vests. Now you can protect yourself from your enemies and look good doing it.

Miguel Caballero, a Columbian-born designer, has been making high-end bulletproof fashion for over 16 years - ever since he went to design school in Bogota, a place where protective vests were as common in the classroom as number 2 pencils and spiral notebooks. His collection includes blazers, raincoats and leather and suede jackets. And for Kanye West, in case he's worried about someone from 50's posse getting a little fed up with his mouth, there's a $7,500 polo shirt that'll stop a slug from a 9-mm. He can drop an extra $1,300 for a heavier-duty polo that can protect him from automatic weapons, like a mini-Uzi. (Note to Kanye: spend the extra dough.)

The clothes are discreet, and don't flash the fact that you're whack-proof. His latest leather jacket, for example, weighs in at a trim 2.6 lb. They are, however, dry-clean only. You don't want to go shrinking a $10k bulletproof shirt in the wash.
