Kan body protectors

[noodle_]

Im about to buy one as my current one is stupidly short and obviously dosent fit, so havent been wearing it.

I prefer the zip up the front ones and had an incredibly comfy one which someone borrowed and didnt return a few years back

Any good/bad points about kan??

are they good if it needs returning??

How long does it take for them to be delivered normally?

Thanks

any other reccomendations welcome (makes)... just been set on kan for a few months

I spoke to wendy and she was great let me try riding in it and said I could send back if I didnt like it they are a better level of protection in my opinion and love mine I would recomend them over the other makes and I tried them all on. I found they are easier to breath in too

thanks

I always feel safer wearing one as i have a 5 year old who does enjoy chucking in the odd buck (like saturday...) to make sure im awake

But the one i have now i refuse to wear as its sitting too high up on my spine so figured it would do more harm than good...

that cost almost £100 to buy and its useless :/

I bought mine from a tradestand so dont know about returns but Wendy that owns it is really very helpfull and I LOVE my Kan!! they feel really heavy to carry around but once it is on I barely notice it! I have never had such a comfy body protector. absolutely love it

I got mine for SJ as I want one to go over my jacket and it sits really nicely unlike my Rodney Powell which i used for XC. They come in so many measurements wendy can make sure it sits correctly

I love my Kan. As someone has mentioned, it's heavy to carry but you hardly notice it when it's on.

The customer service is second to none. They are also very easy to adjust yourself. I needed about an inch taking off the length of the back of mine. Wendy gave me a few options, one being to meet her and she would adjust, another giving me instructions on how to do it...... I did it myself as I wanted to wear it straight away.

The technology used means you don't have to replace it after a fall. Thank goodness as I had a bad fall the first time I wore it. It definitely saved me a few broken ribs.

ive gone through the bit on the site

dress size/bust size etc - is there a back measurements bit or is it as standard??

heard nothing but good things about kan and tbh its inevitable that i will come off so want some extra protection as i always fall on my head or flat out on my back (hence why my back is already slightly b*ggered!)
