### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    comfortable to wear
  

*by K***O on Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2015*

Lightweight and conforms well to the body, comfortable to wear, though will make you sweat more than without it. In the largest size it is too short for full protection for anyone over 6' tall (either your chest or your lower abdomen will be unprotected, your choice. And the side protection area for the ribs is a bit too narrow as well). Plus, if you are not only tall but also "big" it won't fully cover your sides on the front and on the sides as well. The "tiles" feel stiffer than other foam protectors, but I can't tell if they protect better or worse - a good punch is still felt pretty good, but seems to be softened enough to not cause bruises or discomfort. I can't compare to other products, but this seems adequate for at least light sparring. Can't say how durable it is as I've only used it a handful of times so far. So far so good, but the elastics and the way the tiles are connected together appear like they will not last very long.

    The straps of the small fit a little better than the medium
  

*by J***Y on Reviewed in the United States on August 14, 2014*

I originally ordered a small, but I had to return it because the chest guard was too small for my son. The straps of the small fit a little better than the medium, so I just had to sew the straps a little shorter to get a better fit since I like the size of the medium chest guard better than the small. The chest guard is a little thinner than I expected, but it is lightweight and works for my son's current level. Once my son gets higher than his current orange belt and needs more protection for higher impact, I will look for a chest guard that is a little thicker since he does compete in tournaments. Overall, this is a great LIGHTWEIGHT chest guard and a great seller with excellent customer service!

    The best in the market
  

*by L***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 23, 2016*

I bought this chest guard for my 9 year old girl and when I got it I thought it was to thin and thought about return it butwe had a tournament coming up and there was no time to order a different brand, my daughte took three kicks to the ribs in different matches and one knocked her down and she got up like nothing happened and ended up winning the match, I asked her if the kick hurted and she said felt it but did not hurt at all.
