Komperdell has been developing high-quality body protectors more than 20 years. Design is made in Austria.

For the body protector to work optimally, it cannot be too large. Body protectors should be fitted over the type of clothing you intend to ride in. Because a body protector is meant to fit closely to your torso, most riders generally wear one over lightweight clothing, such as a ventilated riding shirt or jersey, with heavier garments and outerwear worn on top. If you intend to wear your body protector over heavier clothing, be sure to measure for and try it while wearing these garments. The protector must cover the breast bone and collar bones, with the front section extending two to three centimetres below the lowest rib. The back section must cover everything from the prominent bone at the base of the neck down to the caudal vertebra. It is important that the protector is not too long so that it catches and rides up when you sit in the saddle. This will make it uncomfortable and unsafe to use.
