Is one brand of chest protectors better than the other or are they all about the same? I waited too long to post this so I'm kinda looking for a quick response. If you guys can help me out, thanks.

I just bought a brand new Thor Aftershock from Rocky Mountain. It was like $69 and had removable arm guards. I think it works great.

Check out the Thor aftershock and Force. I have the Force and love it. Comfy, light and adjustable.

Well I didn't have time to come back and check out the replies. I had to take my brother to the airport and I hit the Honda shop on the way back. I got a Fox R3 for $72 after tax and everything. Fitment seems pretty good but I think I got a size too large. Hopefully when I really start hitting the weights hard here in a couple of weeks I'll fill out enough to make it more snug. My height and weight were on the bottom of the large scale and that's what I happened to grab. It fits great except for it's a little loose in the stomach. Oh well, as long as it protects my ribs and my kidneys because that's all I'm REALLY concerned with.
