Review on Leatt Chest Protector Black Adult by Mark Jefferson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I have never worn a chest or back protector but I love it!

So far, so good! I was torn about getting this from 5.5. I knew I didn't need shoulder or forearm pads, but I also wanted a white protector. 5.5 is only available in black. So I took a chance on choosing a profile that I thought was an older model judging by its 4.5 number. I am very happy with my choice. It's a very durable protector, but I don't even know I'm wearing it. The closure system is great and I have the added benefit of rib protection in the form of wrapping it around a piece of foam that slopes back to front. It is quite strong, completely enclosing my ribs and located under the chest part of the protector. All this plus a significant discount over the 5.5 (which I believe had no side protection at all). Very happy with my choice!

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Weight
