A stab-proof vest is typically made from layers of high-performance materials such as Kevlar, Dyneema, or other aramid fibers that provide resistance to knife attacks.

The layers are often combined with additional protective elements, such as metal or composite plates, to enhance resistance against sharp objects. Finally, the vest is sewn into a durable fabric shell, which offers comfort and concealment for the wearer.
