aluminum plate.
or if you actually want bullet proof, try titanium...though that would be hard to get, aluminum you can get from cars.

You are all guessing good, but mostly wrong.
It depends on the type of armor, durability, comfort, and situation.
Some armors you may think are "impenetratable", are far from it.
Imagine. A suit of knight's armor may stop a single zombie bite, but what about two?
Three?
Four?
Five?
A group of zombie's will tear the armor off, and have a buffet.
If it's the infamous "Combat Ready" armor, that's mainly meant for display, it's the worst armor. It's noisy, bulky, uncomfortable, inconvinient, dehydrating, and it will cause delays in walking.
When wearing a suit of armor, you are literally, canned food.
But the best armor of all, is improvisation. Sense. Intelligence.

Yes of course. But plate works in case you lose your sense for a few minutes.
Full plate is completely and totally stupid unless you have it riveted together, and then you can't take it off. Which means the armor kills you before the zombies do.

Then just toughened leather or plastic.
It will keep the zombie off of you until you can shoot it. Or stab it.
Remember to wear blade proof gloves.

I took the clothes from the deceased guard, along with his weapon, a glock 19... my M4 was out, and 9mm is better then nothing. There was a lot of activity down in these corridors.
eventually I found veggitation again, and a bunker that led to this base... where I was statoned before the outbreak.
I walked for days with my buddy, Leo. He took this pic about 3 hours before he was dragged into an empty building and bitten. I killed all four zombies, but it was too late... he began to change and I had to put him down too.
*As i walked down the street, i saw a sign on a door saying (PURE ONE INSIDE, HELP)*
"There's a survivor in this house!' I scream, many of the survivors hear my scream. as i rip down the door, to my surprise, i didn't see a helpless peasent or a ...
