Hi Ladies! Pole Armour is a NON-Latex NON-silicon synthetic gripping aid. Platinum Stages had our pro type at the Pole Expo in Vegas to beta test the product. Based on the feed back from the show we completely reformulated & restructured the product to make a superior gripping aid to slide over any pole. The product that we launched last month is much more rigid & does not rip, tear, or bunch. It has great grip to it & is extremely easy to clean so wearing shoes while using it is not an issue. We will be posting videos of it soon so everyone can is it in action!
