Fitting

The starting size, based on your chest measurement.

• Over light clothing, place a tape measure close up under the arms & measure the fullest part of the chest.

• The correct size should be a snug fit within the adjustment available from the side, without being too tight or restrictive. 

 

The correct front length option.

• From your natural tipping point at the front (approx 1" below the ribs), up over the shoulder & down to the level point on the back.

• It may help to wear a belt, placed under your ribs, to get a level measure front to back.

• The correct fit should ensure the foam segments at the front are long enough to cover the bottom ribs whilst not being too long to restrict movement.

 

The correct back option.

• Take a back measurement from the vertebrae below the C7 (prominent one at the base of your neck) down to where the Body Protector should finish.

• Sat in the saddle, measure down to approx 3/4 finger width clearance above the seat for general use. Racing models are designed to sit lower on the back. 

• The correct fit should provide both lower back protection & a full range of movement without the saddle interfering.

FAQs

Chest and Waist FAQs

The size suggested by the size chart based on the chest measurement is loose?

If towards bottom of the chest measurement range for a size, start by trying the size down. There is an overlap between a number of the sizes within the range of adjustment.

Front & Body Length FAQs

The bottom row of foam doesn’t cover my bottom rib.

  • Try the Tall fit of the size if available. This has one extra row of front foam compared to the standard size.
  • Or the made to measure options available to lengthen the front are-
  1. A full row added to the front. Suitable where the full row width is required & the extra length will not cause the body protector to sit on the hips at the side & push up.
  2. A tapered/angled row added. Suitable where the extra length is required to cover the ribs at the front but a reduced width at the side prevents the body protector sitting on the hips and pushing up. This is a more common adjustment.

The body protector is sitting up off the shoulders.

This is usually a result of the body protector being too long in the body and/or back.

  • Firstly, check that the size down is not a better fit.
  • Check that it is the standard fit rather than the tall fit being tried.
  • For sizes Large & Ex Large, try the Ladies Fit option.
  • Check the back is the correct length. A back too long can catch and generally push the body protector up, preventing a neat fit over the shoulders.
  • Or the made to measure options available to shorten the front are-
  1. A full row removed from the front. Suitable where the removal of the full width will still allow the ribs to be covered.
  2. Tapering of the bottom row. Suitable where the removal of a whole row would expose the ribs. Angling the front row up off the hips, helping the body protector sit down neatly. This is a more common adjustment.

Back Length FAQs

Is there an exact length the back should be?

The exact back length is a personal preference. The ideal balance is long enough to offer protection without becoming too long as to restrict movement or catch the saddle. The correct length will depend on factors such as the depth of the saddle seat and the range of movement required by each discipline.
