I have used the same chest protector for 8 years. I did not want to part with it. I ordered one, and although it was well made, I felt like the coverage was not as good. So I sent it back, and purchased this chest protector. the coverage is great, it fits well and goes on and off easy. Lightweight and breathable. The only reason I did not give it a 5 was because it limited my movement more than my first one, but it was not a huge problem, I just have short arms and it is hard to reach across your chest. Overall I would absolutely suggest this protector, it is comfortable and has great coverage.
