SURVIVOR'S STORY

Go Guarded saved me
This is a short version of my story. It has been a journey that I continue to travel.

When I first bought the ring – my husband was more worried that I would fall and stab myself. He never thought I could hurt someone Else. But that was before the morning last winter. I was running and heard breaths and footsteps behind me. I turned just as my attacker pushed me to the ground with the intent to rape me. He was on top of me. I stabbed him in the face with my ring and thankfully he stopped and ran away. The police were able to identify him because he dropped his cell phone at the scene of the crime and also because he had an obvious stab wound on his cheek. I never leave my house without my go guarded and when I am home alone – I often have it on me. Thank you go guarded. My attacker will serve an 8 year sentence and also is facing charges in another county for a similar crime.

Safety first!

Thankfully I haven't had to use it yet. But it's well made and makes me feel safer when I am out and about!

The best‼️

I have had the knife/pepper spray for 39 days. I have kept it with me when I leave my home and nothing has started falling apart. The Velcro is still in place and still strong.
These products are THE BEST!
For me it means, in the event I have to use the knife and/or pepper spray, I will do so, having full confidence that my Go Guarded self defense weapons will help me get away to be safe‼️💯‼️💯‼️💯‼️

Amazing Customer Service

Quick response time was appreciated

Very comfortable

I got the blade with an alarm.
This fits in my hand perfectly and makes me feel good that I have protection when I am out on walks.

Confidence Boost!

I can't tell you how much more confident I feel running at a nearby lake that has many remote sections on the trail. My Go Guarded Hand-Held is easy to carry, yet ready to go into action if I ever encounter a threat from a stranger or even an aggressive stray animal. I pray that I'll never need to use it, but I am thankful that I have it with me. Thanks for the peace of mind!

I feel a lot more secure when I'm out

With the shorter winter days the river trail that I frequent is very dark and I'm often running alone. The Go Guarded ring makes me feel like I have a quick, efficient response to at least stun a baddie while I get my pepper spray. Between the two I feel more secure. It's not the most comfortable thing to wear, but, honestly, I think that's better so that I always remember it's there and ready to go when I need it. A lot of different thoughts go through your head when you're out alone in the dark, but if you can prepare for bad situations that may arise those thoughts aren't as invasive and you can perform better. I'm absolutely happy with my purchase and want to tell all of the lone lady runners I pass about it.

GO GUARDED RING

What a girl needs

I don’t even know how to begin, I purchased the ring. Slip it on your finger, (index finger for me).
And there is no fuss no muss. I’m 73 years old and walk, there are bob cats and coyotes in my neighborhood, and probably boogie men. I can no longer run for my life, and I can no longer make a fist, and I’m not strong. Now, in my mind, I feel, via this finger. I have a chance to save my life should I ever have to.

Gave it as a gift

I have one of these and use it regularly. I love it so much that this particular purchase was gifted to a friend.

Helps me feel safe when I'm out and about.

I love putting this on when I'm going out to get steps and when I'm walking my little yorkie. I order two for both hands incase I can't use one of my arms and I'm a trainer who will be ordering this for my female clients.

Easy to carry, use, and gives me comfort

This is the perfect device for confidence in some safety while running outdoors alone or with my children. I know it would give me a buffer of time if an animal or other type of predator came at me. Customer service with the company was also wonderful. I emailed them that I entered the wrong address right after purchasing, and since it hadn’t been shipped, they emailed me back almost immediately confirming it would be changed for me. I feel much more comfortable on my outdoor walks and runs now, thanks to this device.

Unable to use

My dog stole it and chewed it up before I got a chance to use it. 😢

Hi Kim- While your dog was a very bad boy (or girl), we at Go Guarded strive to be nothing but very good boys and girls so we are sad you are smacking us on the nose with a newspaper for this. 😢

Go Guarded Hand Held

This piece is well constructed. It is lightweight and the velcro strap can be adjusted to fit over gloves.

GO GUARDED RING

Perfect size, seems easy to use with a little practice

This fits comfortably in my hand and is discreet. It gives me comfort to know I have something with me, if I ever need it, to defend myself.

Great running knife

Got as a gift for a loved one. She loved how simple yet effective it was. The materials and colors do not disappoint. We will be recommending this company to others!!

Peace of Mind

I got this for myself and my mom because, unfortunately, I think all women should have something on hand to defend themselves if need be. This gives me peace of mind, especially for my mom, because there is something that could give her the chance to flee and a chance to fight. I’d highly recommend this!

Hand held w/pepper spray

I am so glad I purchased this for myself and
One for my daughter. It is so light weight and easy to carry. It makes walking my dog at night feel much safer. I’ve recommended this to so many of my friends.

Winter running

I bought this for my daughter in a medium but wish I had bought a large to accommodate gloves in winter.

Great device

Love my Go Guarded stun device. It fits comfortably in my hand while out on my runs, even fits with gloves on. I like that it's rechargeable, lightweight, comes with a flashlight and it's easy to operate. Hopefully I'll never need to use it but I like having it for extra peace of mind.
