The project started from a request from a client in 2013. He challenged us to make an elegant bullet resistant vest since he idealized this luxury model. The idea was set and we dived into this project hoping there were a market for it to succeed.
On paper, it was a challenge : bullet resistance, aestheticism, lightness and certification. It took us about two years to develop the perfect product. There were a bit more than 15 people involved : stylists, design studios in France and Italy, pattern makers, our partner Protecop™. We even benefited from the expertise of the greatest and most famous French criminologist of today - and incidentally consultant for the CIA.
As luck would have it, the presentation of this model was scheduled for the Milipol show in 2015, in the midst of the wave of attacks in Paris. An unfortunate coincidence that immediately put FURTIV in the spotlight. *bulletproof collection name

Partnership with the largest amusement park in Paris. An agreement was made with this world-famous park to discreetly equip a team of armed security guards (the only one in the world) responsible for monitoring the premises. Second collaboration : with Zilli, a luxury French fashion brand.
At the request of customers living in warm countries, we created a new jacket. Inspired by an overcoat from a French haute-couture house, this bullet resistant jacket is made of a light and breathable wool/cashmere fabric
