Decathlon body protector

[smiggy]

Does anyone have the motorcycle type one that’s just a gilet with back plate ?
am thinking of purchasing as something I might actually use everyday , realise they are no good for anything proper and do possess a proper bp and an air jacket but don’t usually bother with either due to bulk, feeling restricted etc.
sizing is odd though, on website it’s just on height , which puts me in child’s 12 to 14, but feel I am plumper and better endowed than most 12 yr olds so bit unsure.

Just a thought - unrelated to body protectors but I know a while ago Decathlon were selling hats which didn’t conform to UK safety standards. I don’t know what your expectations are, but might be worth checking if that bothers you?

Thanks , but as I say, I realise they are no use for anything proper.They def won’t meet any equestrian safety standards as just a back piece. Chance of me ever deliberately being airborne and hence needing to meet said standards is also next to zero ? I just feel better than nothing possibly if that’s the alternative. Can just imagine that I might bother to use it every day because it looks very light and non restrictive.
