Does anyone have one of these? Are they worth the money? Are they comfortable/bulky/hot etc?

I'm thinking for my mum who is novicy and plods round the school and roads so it's got to be comfotable for everyday use.

Thanks
 
Yes. Lovely. Love. Love. Love.

When I bounced on my head I was wearing one - not a mark on any part of my body and no ouches at all

Love. Love. Love.

Also, comfy to wear - I've worn mine on hot days and on cold days and everywhere inbetween. Plenty of pockets as well.

Have I mentioned how much I love it?

I know this is going to sound daft... I got the jacket when I had Tiggy, and I wasn't always sure what state we'd be in, I used to feel like I'd done my seat belt up (and was therefore safer) when I clicked the wee belt together

Hope she likes it

Forgot to add: it washes really well too

Only problem is I'm winning a coat on ebay for her with 2 hours to go!!! Jo do you want an early birthday pressie - they may give me a smaller size if i ask nicely?!!
 
I was looking into getting one of these jackets but I um'ed and arrr'ed about how much they cost, and due to not knowing anyone with one, I didn't bother

But I do love the look of them , saw one when I went to Ride-away and it was really good quality!

*Giggles* sorry, totally unrelated to OP but this reminded me of a hack I was on with my friend. I was riding Sammi on the main road, and a Police car was approaching us and I reached for my seat belt!!!

It was only when I couldn't 'find' it, it dawned on me I was on my horse - not in the ruddy car lmaoooooo

It's so embarrassing - my friend will never let me live it down! I always manage to do something absurd on a daily basis! As Forrest Gump says, "stupid is as stupid does" (hey that could be a new clique lol)!!

I love my body guard jacket, the sizing is fairly generous, both me and my sister have them, mine is a medium and is a bit big, even with a load of winter clothes under it. I am a 10/12/14 (de0pending on all sorts

)My sister has had a problem with the zip on hers, but mine is in fab condition. The only improvement would be if they did them in Hi-Viz.
Oh and while fine for riding and walking about in are a bit odd for driving the car in!
