About Protest Safety Gear

Meet the Editor

Bryce Palmer, Site Editor

Bryce has spent years attending and documenting public demonstrations across the country, working alongside legal observers, medics, and journalists. After seeing firsthand how the right gear can make a critical difference, he built this resource to help others make informed purchasing decisions before they need it most.

Every guide on this site reflects real-world research: manufacturer specifications, verified user reviews, consultation with safety professionals, and hands-on comparison of gear across price points.

Our Mission

Protest Safety Gear exists to help people stay safe while exercising their constitutional rights. Whether you're a protester, journalist, photographer, or activist, having the right safety equipment can make all the difference.

We provide unbiased, research-based reviews and recommendations for personal protective equipment, helping you make informed decisions about the gear that could protect you in challenging situations.

Our Approach

Every product recommendation on this site is based on thorough research, including:

  • Analysis of product specifications and certifications
  • Review of user feedback and real-world testing
  • Expert opinions from safety professionals
  • Price-to-value comparisons

We prioritize safety and effectiveness above all else. We don't recommend products just because they offer higher commissions—we recommend what we genuinely believe will keep you safe.
