JanSport Bulletproof Backpack FAQs

The bulletproof plate in the JanSport Bulletproof Backpack does not have a specific expiration date. However, it is recommended to replace the plate every five years to ensure optimal protection.
Is the JanSport Bulletproof backpack for teens waterproof?
While the JanSport Bulletproof Backpack is water-resistant, it is not entirely waterproof. It can withstand light rain, but it is not designed for heavy rain or submersion in water.
Can the JanSport Bulletproof Backpack be taken on an airplane?
Yes, the JanSport Bulletproof Backpack is TSA approved and can be taken on an airplane. However, it is always recommended to check the specific airline's regulations before travel.
What age group is the JanSport Bulletproof Backpack suitable for?
The JanSport Bulletproof Backpack is designed for teenagers and adults due to its size and weight. However, the adjustable straps make it possible for younger kids to use it comfortably.
Can I wash the JanSport Bulletproof Backpack in a washing machine?
The JanSport Bulletproof Backpack should not be washed in a washing machine. The bulletproof plate should be removed before washing the backpack by hand.
Is there a warranty for the JanSport Bulletproof Backpack?
Yes, the JanSport Bulletproof Backpack comes with a limited lifetime warranty. The warranty covers any manufacturing defects but does not cover normal wear and tear or any damage caused by misuse.
How Much Does Each Bulletproof Level Weigh?
- Level 4 (IV): 7 to 9 pounds, about the weight of a laptop or a gallon of milk.
- Level 3+ (III+): Approximately 5-7 pounds, about the weight of a jacket or a small laptop.
- Level 3+ (III+ Lightweight): Approximately 4-6 pounds, about the weight of a jacket or a small laptop.
- Level 3A (IIIA): Approximately 1-2 pounds, about the weight of a plastic water bottle or a 70-page notebook.
Is the Bulletproof Insert Removable or Sewn into the Bag?
- The insert is removable, allowing for separate washing of the backpack and the insert without compromising the plate's integrity.
- The backpack allows for easy changing of armor inserts, depending on the situation or the child's age.
- Monitoring the insert's condition is possible to ensure it remains undamaged and maintains high-performance standards.
- Easy transferability of the bulletproof insert to another backpack or bag when the current one becomes outdated or goes out of style.
- Rigorous testing of backpacks to ensure comfortable fit and weight distribution with the plates.
- Flexibility to position the plate in the desired location within the backpack.
- Note that all backpacks available on the market with sewn-in armor usually only go up to IIIA, which stops pistol-caliber bullets. Our bulletproof backpacks can accommodate plates that offer protection against high-powered rifle rounds with Level III or IV bulletproof ratings because they are detachable.

This backpack protects against various types of firearms, including:
- NIJ IIIA: Handguns up to .44 mag and .357.

To some this may be extreme But this is the world that we’re living in. My worst nightmares became a reality This past school year with The, shooting at FSU. My daughter will be a junior there this year. This backpack is the best protection. I can offer her without being there physically myself. I am extremely thankful to Atomic defense for giving us this option to keep our children safe

We understand that safety is a top priority, especially in light of recent events. We are glad to provide a product that gives you peace of mind and helps keep your daughter safe.

My wife and I feel better about our daughter attending school with this added protection. This is discreet backpack and we could not be happier.
We're happy that you're happy! Better to have, and not need, than to need, and not have.
J
The sweet 1990’s OG backpack with the tiered defense add weight, but is contoured to fit back or if needed switched to the front of the torso.
Hi Joshua, thanks for sharing your thoughts! We’re glad the backpack’s contoured design and added protection give you and your wife extra peace of mind. We appreciate your support of Atomic Defense!
W
The customer service was awesome! Definitely recommend the backpack, and company.
I ordered the kids backpack initially, and was not happy. They contacted me, and free of charge sent me this backpack after returning the original. I will definitely be ordering more from atomic defense for not only the products, but knowing they will make sure I am completely satisfied with my purchase.
We're thrilled to hear you loved the backpack and the service! Thank you for trusting Atomic Defense. We look forward to serving you again!

Happy, weights not bad with a level 3. I used to carry a gym bag but having and undercover plate to carry with you in your vehicle or wherever you go is awesome. Debating one for my son, he’s in the 3rd grade but he’s built Texas strong 👍💪🤠
Hi Robert, we're thrilled to hear you're happy with your backpack and appreciate your kind words! It's great that it fits your needs and that you're considering one for your son. Thanks for sharing your experience!
J
Overall great product and I was surprised that the plate didn’t take up more room inside. Gives my wife and I the peace of mind our daughter has it just in case!
Hi Jonathan,
Thank you for your review! We’re glad to hear the backpack provides peace of mind for your family while still leaving room for your daughter’s essentials. Your trust means a lot to us.
J
The plate and the bag are great. My only issue is that the pocket where the plate goes into , does not properly cover the whole plate, therefore if the backpack is open, it can be seen and it can come out easily. I would have liked it better if the plate went into a pocket that closed with a zipper or Velcro. My son will be utilizing it while attending HS and if other teens visually see the plate, they might be tempted to take it. I might have to sew a cover with Velcro so it won't come out as easy. Other than that, the backpack seems sturdy and the plate is good to go.
Hi Juan, thank you for your detailed feedback! We're glad you like the backpack and plate. Your suggestion about a zipper or Velcro pocket is helpful, and we’ll consider it for future designs. If you need any assistance, feel free to reach out. Thanks for choosing Atomic Defense!

It's unfortunate that, I need to buy a bullet proof backpack for my daughter entering high school this fall. The quality looks great and looks like any other backpack. The idea that she has some protection brings some peace of mind.
Hi Edith, we're glad to hear you feel more at ease with our backpack. Wishing your daughter a safe and successful high school year!
J
I purchased this book bag because I wanted an inconspicuous way to give myself some added protection whilst driving in my car without being too loud about it. This bag looks the part. And has the goods inside to shield me from danger.
Hi Jerome, we're glad you like the look and feel confident with your backpack. Stay safe and enjoy your protection!
D
This company gave the best recommendation for level of bulletproofing. Many companies provide lower level of bulletproofing without explaining that their products don’t protect against AR style rifles. On top of that the bulletproof backpack is very well made and looks really good!
Hi there David,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review! We are thrilled to hear that our level of bulletproofing met your expectations and provided you with the protection you were looking for. We take pride in providing accurate and transparent information about our products, and we are happy to know that our efforts were appreciated. We hope you continue to enjoy your well-made and stylish bulletproof backpack. Have a great day!

Great product. Great concept.

My son loves the jan sport backpack. Perfect size. The leather on bottom of bag gives extra support and protection. Perfect size for middle school or high school. My son doesn't use a locker at school so his backpack is stuffed and heavy already. The bullet proof insert even though we got the light version, is very heavy with all his books. But I use it in my purse to go to movies or malls and the weight is fine. Next time there is a school shooting Im sure he will be relieved he has this extra protection. Im relieved we have this shield in our home whenever we feel we want the safety.
S
My child just started middle school and he loves his backpack. It’s not too heavy and has many pockets. My hope is that he will never actually need it in a hostile situation but I feel better with him having at school.
I have shared with all in my parent group the need to act since the schools are not protecting them.

Leaving the politics of even feeling the need to get these backpacks OUT of this conversation, we received these very quickly after they were shipped, the quality is exactly what you'd expect from Jansport (high quality) and while these were the lightweight ones, they'll honestly still be a bit of a workout for my 11 year old going into middle school who will presumably have a lot more books than hes used to (but should be ok for my 9 year old elementary student). HOWEVER - I would purchase these a million times over. Anytime I've contacted Atomic Defense they were lightening fast in responding, super polite, knew exactly what status my order was in, and I am over all super pleased with this purchase. I hope I never have to write a review on how well it holds up to bullets. This is a Definite DO for anyone on the fence because the *little bit* more peace of mind I have sending my kids back to school this year is worth the cost.
L
Looks nice, has sufficient storage space. I'm happy with my purchase.
C
As expected! Classic Jansport backpack with useful compartments (I use as a diaper bag) and the bulletproof plate gives us a little bit of peace of mind when we’re out and about in crowded places. It feels a little heavy when I lift it with one arm but feels totally fine on my back (sort of like a laptop). Would recommend!
E
Thankfully haven’t had to use, but excellent quality. And surprisingly light for its rating.
W
We purchased a backpack for each of our two children. While somewhat heavy, neither child has had any difficulty in carrying the backpack or with insufficient space in the backpack. As far as looks go, it is indistinguishable from any other backpack they may carry.
C
Thankfully, i haven’t had to use this item yet. I keep it with me at all times in case of an emergency. I’m extremely grateful that bulletproof backpacks like this exist. Interestingly, although the bulletproof shield is heavy, it feels almost like nothing when i put the backpack on. I use it everyday and am very pleased. It also arrived super quickly!
J
This is the product that puts your mind at ease.
Only thing is Jansport is regular bag and not even reinforced so the bag will get replace yearly but the insert can be moved to other bags,
P
I am happy with the one that came in. However I would like to know the status on the second.
M
Is the plate ceramic or steel
Hi Marcy,
Thanks for reaching out and for your question!
Our plates and armor are made of Polyethylene (UHMWPE) and/or Ceramic, depending on the protection level:
- Pure Polyethylene (UHMWPE): Used in all NIJ Level IIIA and lower-rated armor, providing lightweight protection and comfort.
- Ceramic + Polyethylene (UHMWPE): Used in higher NIJ ratings (Level III and above) for enhanced ballistic protection against rifle rounds while keeping weight manageable.
This combination delivers the best balance of protection, durability, and usability.
