Following the success of the HK Army Knee and Elbow Pads, we now have the new HK Army Crash Upper Body Armor.
Since the question often arises as to what to wear under the jersey when playing paintball, why not a top specifically designed for the sport, which also protects you from all the risks of playing paintball?
The super light HK chest protector was manufactured in such a way that it meets all the requirements of paintball sports, but in no way restricts the player's mobility.
The Crash Protector is equipped with flexible padding from the chest to the stomach at the front and the entire back at the back. Be it against paintball hits or hard body contact with the ground with even fast moves.
The padding itself consists of individual cushions that are adapted to the shape of the body, which allow maximum mobility.
Inside the HK upper body armor is provided with an elastic and breathable "4-way stretch material". The protective equipment is very comfortable to wear, fits snugly on the body and cooling ventilation is already provided for even on hot match days.
I would like to advise girls who play paintball in particular to wear upper body protection, purely as a precaution. The HK Crash Chest Protector shields all the places where it pinches and is guaranteed to pay off sooner or later!
Perhaps still in general.... in the past, upper body protectors were frowned upon, but they are now almost a fixed part of paintball equipment, be it for beginners up to the professionals.
Therefore, it has long been a thing of the past with wimps to do if you protect yourself well and feel more comfortable, i.e. play better ;-)
