I bought this for $140 at alpinestars.com but it is too big. I tried it on, but have never used it. I don't have the tags or labels, but this is a new piece of gear. $120 plus actual shipping costs (UPS, FedEx or USPS) and it's yours. Please send me a PM if interested. Here's Alpinestars description: Cross Torsion Linkage (patented) shock absorber system,Flexible central linkage adapts and moves with the body,Expanded polymer foam for impact speed reduction,Dual density foam for low impact loads,Comfortable and soft fabric liner,CE prEN 1621-2 certified blade and waist extensions,Perforations to keep you cool and comfortable. Here's New Enough's description: We’ve seen a lot of different back protectors through our shop in the last couple years, but I can say with confidence that this model is the best I’ve seen yet. It gives better coverage, is more compact and more comfortable than other models. The parts that make up the plastic armor shell are interlinked in such a way that they allow freedom of movement while bending, but also while leaning side to side. And the natural shape of the back protector is very much like your spine (a very shallow “S” shape” when viewed from the side. The waist belt is comfortable and highly adjustable (anywhere from very skinny to pretty darn big). The shoulder straps are cleverly designed also, they can be tightened or loosened when the back protector is on your body by re-positioning the straps that come under your arms. Kudos to the team who designed this one for sure.   |
