As title. I am looking for a new body protector. Previously had an aerowear which I had to replace with a Racesafe. As lost weight want a better fitting one. Was never keen on the Racesafe so don't want another one of those. I am short so need ones that suit short people :)
Thanks x
 
After all the rave reviews on here and elsewhere about the Dainese, I'm waiting on the new one to come out at the beginning of March hopefully.

There is no substitute for trying on different makes and models until you find the one that fits you.

I started out with a Rodney Powell because it was the only one that would go around me. Two stone lighter, I had my heart set on a Racesafe but was persuaded to try on the Aeroware as well. I thought the Racesafe was comfortable until I tried on the Aeroware. The 1 cm difference in length meant it was more comfortable.

So my reccomendation it so find somewhere that stocks all of the ones you are interested in and try them on.
 
I really like the Rodney Powell. It's a little bit stiff when you first put it on but within a minute it's so soft I forget I've got it on. I'd be loathed to changed to another brand!
 
I wear a Outlyne and find it comfortable. Earlier I wore a Jack Ellis and before that a Rodney Powell but find the Outlyne superior!
