[DavyC]

Hi

Anyway I am considering getting a body armour jacket and liked the one Henry was wearing seems neat and able to add layers above.

Has anybody any idea what make etc it was.

In the other programmes of his that I've seen, he was wearing a Knox Cross Shirt - http://store.planet-knox.com/product/cross-shirt-upper-body-armour/#!prettyPhoto

What size are you? I have a slightly older model in a Medium / Large that I never wear.

Thanks, but going by the sites it looks like I'm a 3XL - 47 Inch chest.

I have to wear a 'body armour jacket' all the time.
Only have a cheapy - that Knox one looks the best i've ever seen! I WANT! (but as usual - i'm skint, so am only talking bollox here)

Even a cheapy is good though. Close fitting, good support, works well to keep heat in and means i can wear one less layer.
I'd recommend getting one. Only hassle is - the nearer the skin the better the fit, so that can make getting dressed for the Bike a nuisance

Everything's relative but, actually, I don't think it's "pricey" at all for Forcefield Armour.

In fact, it seems something of a bargain in comparison with the one I've been thinking about getting -

Good piece of kit is the Forcefield item

I wear the item below (via link) when I'm off roading & very impressed with it so far:-

Very comfortable, figure hugging but not restrictive as it can be fully adjusted for the perfect fit.
