Armored Shirt
Anyone own Bohn and besides the fact that it is ugly as fuck, what do you think about this?I'm honestly tired of screwing around with my suit's armor and I'm thinking that this might replace it. Besides, my suit has a soft back pad and I hate using my back protector. Thanks for your input.

I have one from AXO that is complete shit. it's better than nothing... but it's not the quality of a lot of armored shirts...
the one thing i'll say I really like (though mine falls short compared to others) is the kidney belt... makes a big difference |

 Bohn is well respected and the original price is $169 plus the armor ECE cert so... It sure is ugly though. It's either this or a suit liner which will make getting my suit on and off a lot easier.

yeah it was sure nice taking the jacket on and off.. but it was a lot hotter in my jacket than the normal armor was mainly because it blocks where the vents are!
I think if I had to do it again Bohn is who I'd go with... I think they have several options though... |

I dont have a shirt, but I am very pleased with the quality of the back protector I have.

I have a 661 Vapor Pressure Suit I use for DS riding. All I wear over it is a jersey. Fits great, plenty of adjustment points and tons of ventillation. I wear a knockoff underarmour compression shirt under it.
 It would probably fit fine under some leathers if you took the built-in armor out. Last edited by jtemple; 01-11-2011 at 12:18 PM.. |
