Chest armors

Chest armor

— unlike the motorcycle turtle (see above), the shells have a lighter and more compact design. This is achieved due to the lack of protection for the lower back, shoulders and elbows. The shell covers only the most vulnerable parts of the body: the chest, back, abdominal organs. Structurally, such equipment consists of a rigid frame with inserts made of plastic or composite materials. The motorcycle shell adapts to the relief of the body with the help of adjustable straps, it restricts movement less, and the shell is supposed to be worn over clothes or under light jackets.
