Archaic armors are heave and not very good against kinetic attacks but protect fairly well from energy attacks.
Concealable ballistic armors can be hidden under regular outside clothes, but are fairly easy spot if worn without an overcoat due to their bulk, with the exception of the Pull-up pouch vest that just looks like a pouch when not in use but is very obvious like a tactical armor when in use.
Tactical armors are long bulky vests that are very easy to see and if not appropriate for the situation will definitely cause a negative reaction.
Do not require anything special to use.
