Certified to EN 1621-3 (chest) and EN 1621-2 (back), Level 1, the VPD System Tanktop is a highly capable protection system that also boasts incredible flexibility for comfort and easy movement when you're sending it down technical trails. Rather than encompass the protector into a jacket or vest, POC keeps it simple to enhance freedom of movement and airflow. The VPD material softens as it's warmed by your body heat, providing incredible flexibility but in the event that you take an impact it hardens to absorb the energy of the crash. Large ventilation channels front and rear let sweat escape and fresh air in, keeping your core temperature regulated. Flexible, lightweight chest and back protection for every trail ride. VPD Protection POC's VPD (Visco-Elastic Polymer Dough) has a decade of knowledge and progression behind it and when you're pushing hard on your bike then it's almost inevitable you'll fall. VDP lets you get up, again and again, no matter how many times gravity gets the better of you. Allowing complete freedom of movement, VPD is flexible protection with a shock absorbing inner layer matched to an abrasion resistant outer.
Combining minimal padding with unrivalled flexibility, the POC VPD Air + Tee combines protection and comfort for an offroad creation destined for greatness. Allowing for freedom of movement in the chest and elbow regions, the flexible mesh is extremely lightweight and highly breathable to ensure you stay cool from the first pedal until the last. The back protector is ventilated to reduce the build-up of sweat and sports impressive shock absorption levels to ensure an unexpected fall doesn’t do damage. Fitting perfectly to your upper body thanks to the elastic mesh, the VPD Air+ Tee has low-profile sleeve and chest comfort pads. For those searching for a customisable fit, the optional waist strap allows you to personalise your comfort easily. With comfort, compression and ventilation all working hand-in-hand to provide one of the finest forms of protection the trail has seen, even the roughest riding conditions don’t stand a chance of ruining your session.
Laughing in the face of rough terrain, rocks and other trail-related threats that pose a danger to your ride, the Spine VPD 2.0 Jacket offers extensive coverage and protection to your back, chest, shoulders and elbows. Providing the perfect fit thanks to the 3D moulded protectors, the reinforced stretch fabric keeps your elbows shielded and the innovative Crash Retention Strap works to prevent your protection from sliding out of place. The asymmetric zipper welcomes optimised chest protection and the perforated protectors can be easily removed and washed to keep you feeling fresh. Highly stylish, this protective jacket outperforms the highest level of the 1621-2 motorcycle standards and makes the difference when shredding aggressively to kick up roost.
