Did anyone ever try or consider a chest and back protector to wear under CE armored jacket? I was just curious, and feeling a little conservative. I saw the Alpinestars SMX Bionic 2 Vest online. Overkill?

I looked into getting a back protector a few months back (in the end decided not to do it yet) and IIRC the Joe Rocket one was voted the best. It is made in Europe and under a different name (marketed under 2 different names in Europe) but over here it is sold under the Joe Rocket name. It is CE Level 2, which not many are.September 28, 2008 at 4:23 pm #12885BenParticipantIt all depends on what your level of comfort is. I already put on enough gear as it is and I couldn’t imagine adding another piece! Jacket, helmet, gloves, pants, boots!
