Is size L6 ladies Airowear Outlyne Ladies Body Protector UK 14-16 or 16-18?

I have seen it as both.

Can anyone advise?

Quite a difference.

Thanks

For a body protector I would always want to get measured. Only way to make sure it fits properly, also as the Outlyne has different lengths to them.

Agreed- I have this BP and a big variety of size/length combinations

 

[Remi'sMum]

Also agree. I have one and they were very thorough fitting it in the shop.

It depends on the ratio of your girdle size (shoulder and hip - not underwear!) to torso width. BPs don't equate to dress sizes. You have to get them fitted.

I’ve just bought a BP and so glad I went to a shop with a good selection. I tried about 10 in different makes and sizes and only one fit me

I was fitted in a shop, I'm about an 18 and mine's an L5 regular. Agree with the others you're best to go and get fitted as there are a lot of different size/length combinations.

Thanks, I am borrowing a L5 short from a friend who is a similar profile to me (14-16 and short in the back). I will look for a second hand one of those.

I was trying to work the size out as I had seen a good one online, and didn't have hers to hand.

I will only use it occasionally when it is a requirement for hiring gallops.

I have unfortunately had two badly fitted in shop in past!

Body protectors can perish , if you do buy nearly new try and get one that is a more recent model. It's recommended that they're replaced every 3-5 years , although I know we won't all replace in that kind of timescale .
