Equipment that can reliably protect the upper body
I chose this equipment because I had suffered a hard blow to my shoulder when I fell down and hit my chest in agony when I stumbled.
So far I have not fallen down using it, but compared to the 4.5 I used before, Shell's protection is indeed harder and thicker, especially in the chest and abdomen area.
4.While the Handlebar 5 was flexible enough to flex the abdomen and chest when leaning on the Handlebar, this one maintains the original shape of the entire structure and feels as if it is supported by the entire surface, without any localized pressure.
The Image is such that the Protector itself keeps its shape and protects the people inside.
The interior cushion material is also designed to be appropriate for the grade, and there is no concern that the surface fabric will peel off after repeated use and washing.
If there is a problem...
The price of enhanced defense is that upper body mobility is more restricted than in other grades.
To be an inner protector, it should be massive and wearable. (Not possible depending on your physique)
The lock of the Belt on the flank that connects the front and back is stiff. (Pushing is not a common type of buckle, but a solid gold clasp made of gold, which can be pushed in with a little force after being hooked.)
Although it is the highest grade in terms of series at the moment, other grades may be better depending on the environment and riding style, so we hope you can compare them and make a good choice.

LEATT 5.5 PRO HD Worn by women
Worn by a 154cm woman.
The product is labeled as 160cm and up, but I felt no discomfort wearing it.
It may be bulky to store and a little heavy to hold in your hand. However, once you put it on, you won't feel the weight.
I had another Protector, but I heard that there was a rib fracture RISK in the event of a fall, so I replaced it with the PROHD, which also has solid flanks.
In the photo, the shoulder Protector is removed, but it is properly attached at the time of purchase.

Shoulder pads fall off
This is my second chest and shoulder protector.My first was a 2000's Thor motocross model. I had decided that it has kept me from snapping a collar bone several times. I convinced my wife that I probably should upgrade. I purchased the Leatt thinking that it was top quality and would give me great protection. However on my first ride the shoulder protectors came un clipped 3 times and slipped down my arm and has continued to have the same failure on every ride. I then attended a cross country race and noticed a fella wearing the same protector but both shoulder guards were removed. The first corner he got bumped and flipped off his bike. I rode his bike out for him because his collar bone had gotten broken. Note: I have not contacted Leatt about this problem yet. Any suggestions? View detail
Love the lightness and ease of movement.
[How is it used?
I purchased this product for off-road driving during hot weather.
It is worn in Off-roadJersey.
Was the one you received as per Image?
It was lightweight, easy to move around in, and cooler than the Protector I had been using, which covered my entire upper body, as per Image.
How was your experience with it?
I am the height of the L/XL I was worried that it would be Oversized when I put it on since I am a skinny person. However, I was worried that it would be Oversized when I put it on since I am skinny.:Pair (for Left and Right) I tried adjusting by Belt in two places, and it fit perfectly.
You may not fail to choose Size according to your height.
Easy to put on and take off with Velcro in two places.
[Points to note]
Breathability.
There is a wide Mesh area in the Protector area on the chest and back, and I believe this product is designed with breathability in mind. I have adjusted this product to fit snugly to my body and wear it inside Off-roadJersey, but unfortunately I do not feel any breeze from this Mesh. Next time I use it, I will try to make a little more room between it and my skin.
[On defensibility].
As the name "Chest Protector" implies, the protection effect is limited to the chest and back. When worn, the armpits open up to a large size. This is a product that prioritizes lightness and breathability, and is suitable for hot weather.
I have not yet had a fall that hit my chest or back, so I am not sure how protective the Protector part is.
I use a separate Protector for elbows in combination.
How did it compare to other products?
In the past, I prioritized protection and wore EVS long-sleeved protectors that would protect my entire upper body. However, in the recent heat wave, it became too hot and I realized that the Risk of heat stroke was increasing.
In comparison, the Protector I purchased covers less of my body, and I definitely feel that it allows my body to release more heat than before.
I think it will be cold in the middle of winter, so I will try my best to buy Body protector for winter as well.

During the hot summer months
[How is it used?
I had been using a full protector for safety, but in the summer, etc., it is easy to get heat stroke. I was looking for something safe, with good protection, and lightweight. I was also planning to purchase a neck brace, and since it was the same Leatt brace and seemed to go well with it, I bought it at the same time.
I haven't used it in the summer yet, but it is definitely lighter than the Chest Protector I have been using, and the Honeycomb-style Protector allows for better airflow, which is promising in the summer.
The Leatt brace Neck brace also works well with the Leatt brace Neck brace, and I realized that it is better to unify protectors under the same brand.
The price is a little high, but it is the best choice for safety, ventilation, and compatibility with Neck brace.

I found what I was looking for.
I was looking for a Protector that could be installed under my Off Jersey, and when I found out about this product, I bought it from webike because they had it in stock.
I am 170 cm, 56 kg and have a skinny body type but ExactFit by adjustment.
I feel no discomfort at all while wearing it from morning to evening.
I haven't tried it in midsummer yet, so I don't know if it is hot or not.
It was then worn over innerwear when touring, and was also worn over T-Shirt, T-Shirt, and T-Shirt.
I drove with Outer and it was comfortable too.
Finally, I tried running the circuit wearing KUSHITANI's Leather suit M Size underneath, and I was able to concentrate so much that I forgot I was wearing it.
We have chosen this way because we are sure that the brand is a good choice for protection.
If you are having trouble choosing a Protector, we want you to experience such a sense of discomfort that you will forget you are wearing it.
It's not cheap, even directly from overseas, but it's the best.

Lightweight and good
It is good because it is not too bulky.
The fit is good.

5. 5 pro arrived
The other day I ordered this HD, but 5. 5 pro arrived.
We are currently asking for returns and exchanges, but we do not hear from you.
Clearly I can not believe there is no contact for the whole day though it is a mistake there.
