Leatt has launched a new lightweight, two-piece body protector and body armour system that can be purchased as a whole or separate and which comes with a female specific option.

Compact, lightweight, vented a body armour that doesn’t restrict movement and “you won’t even know you’ll have it on”, Leatt is making big claims for the new for ’22 Airflex upper body protection system.

The Airflex is built in two pieces: a zip up compression sock with soft impact protectors for the shoulders and elbows and a CE certified chest and back protector that is worn over the top. The combination of the Airflex and the mesh in the chest area offers protection without compromising ventilation or comfort Leatt says.

The female-specific Airflex design:

What’s the Airflex technology?  A gel that absorbs impact energy, reducing the forces that transfer to the body. Thanks to its molded shape adapted to the rider, it can take impacts repeatedly without losing its technical characteristics and function.
