Points to check on fitting
The body protector should be tried on over light clothing. Check that is comfortable to wear in all simulated riding positions. The garment should fit securely and reasonably tightly to avoid movement during activity and to ensure that it is in place in the event of an accident.
Put on the selected body protector. Adjust it to a snug fit. Use the shoulder closures to make fine adjustments to the fit around the shoulders. Do up the second flap of the shoulder closure. Pull the waist flaps of the back panel forward and press them onto the Velcro of the front panel. Tighten one then the other to get a tight fit. Adjust the length of the waist strap and do it up. Ensure that all hook fastening at each closure is in contact with loop material. Check the overall fit is snug, and that no RED VELCRO is exposed. If it is the protector is too small. Try the next larger size.
Women may find the use of a larger size of front panel than back panel enables a more comfortable fit to be achieved
