On Hackaday, Shenzhen demonstrates some proof-of-concept
"taser-proof clothing" created by adding carbon fiber to the clothes' lining. The carbon fiber textile can be procured in a
variety of forms, including
upholstery fabric (58" wide, $19.50/yard) and
peel-and-stick 50cm tape rolls (this is vinyl, not carbon fiber).
Shenzhen claims this will work even if the taser's prongs get to the
wearer's body: "Electric current flows through the carbon tape and not
through the human body. Always. Even if the taser's needle pierced the
skin."
