Body Protector Recommendations

[missshell]

Im looking to buy a body protector but there are so many out there!! I would like a comfortable one that is reasonably priced and doesn't make you too hot. Not too much to ask for eh?

The best and only thing to do IMO is to go to a shop that has several different makes and styles and try them on until you find the one that fits best on you. They all have lots of different variations now to ensure the best fit - and if it fits properly you don't notice it on.

It is important to try on different ones as some fit better if you have a bust etc etc.

Ok thanks! Looks like a trip to the tack shop is in order!

Lets just hope I can restrain myself in there and just buy what i need!

Once you've tried them on and chosen one you like, have a check on the internet - they're usuallya bit cheaper online.
I love my new Airowear Outlyne - especially as the size I needed had long and slim in the title!

If they don't have a saddle for you to sit on, sit on the floor - if the back of the body protector hits the floor it will hit the cantle of your saddle - v annoying!!

but they should do different length backs in most makes/styles these days.

I have an airowear to and love it!

Another one for the aerowear outlyne. I brought it recently and it fits sooo well!

also moves really well so you don't feel so restricted but still provides all round protection.

I have always resisted buying one, but as i have a 4 year old, and have started jumping him recently, decided it was a necessity! Bought an Airowear outlyne, and love it. First time I wore it, forgot I had it on! Definitely get my vote!

Excellent, how much are the Airowear Outlyne BPs?

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

About £120 I think.

I got a lovely Woof Wear one a bit ago, as you warm up, it moulds to your body which is nice

Have Fun Shopping!
