Considering that kevlar isn't a solid material like steel, I don't recommend making your armor as if it was a solid piece of metal. Assuming that you're not just making a vest, give the kevlar lots of room to stretch and move, so it'll work as intended.

Plexiglass can be shaped easily and is very hard.

What do you need defense from in particular?

What about aluminium plates, for the same weight as steel its more efficient.

Bullshit larper begging for spoonfeed go die you monstrous retard you aren't trekking anywhere go eat the herpes sores off a hobo leper junkie.

Corten steel from shipping containers is indestructible. You can pad it with imitation crab meat which can also sustain you on your trek.

Heyo OP, got any sketches of what you're trying to make?

Change your name to Havel and make it from reinforced concrete.

other than the fact that you can cut aluminum with a butter knife, there's no problem with using it at all.
