Most state will consider a felon wearing a bulletproof vest as a felony--almost as bad as if the felon had been caught with a firearm.
If you are a felon, you can not possess a bullet proof vest.
Yes they can. But may they? It is illegal for a felon to purchase or possess a bullet-proof vest in the U.S. under federal law.
Changed: No, not legally. Even more: In the United States, it is illegal for a felon to possess a bullet-proof vest, and it is illegal for ANYONE to possess one during the commission of a crime.

In Texas, i researched it as much as i could, and yes you can UNLESS your a FELON.

Not using it to commit a crime no problem. You look kinda funny and please remember, they are not bullet proof. They are bullet resistant and only up to a certain level defined by its classification. Most police wear a level IIa

In the U.S. having a bullet proof vest isn't illegal unless you are a felon (in some states) or are committing a crime while wearing it.
No
