The
SixSixOne Comp Pressure Suit for Youth is a long-sleeve combination of hard- and soft-shell upper body armor protection. It offers hard-shell protection where you need it most and soft-shell protection in those other areas critical to your well-being. Considered SixSixOne’s entry level pressure suit, it actually comes with a number of protective features found only in competitors’ suits that are often much more expensive.
Spine Guard Protection for GodzillaWell, maybe not literally for Godzilla, but it is massive. The SixSixOne Comp Youth comes with the widest spine guard of any body armor garment in the SixSixOne line. At their widest, regardless of the size you buy, the seven overlapping hard-shells are eight inches wide. These are riveted into heavy-duty foam pads that sit flush against your spine, which at their widest are another three inches wide on either side. Thus, the SixSixOne Comp sports a combination hard- and soft-shell spine guard that is a whopping 14 inches wide in the extra large size. Even in the small size, it is still a total of 13 inches across. How about that for spine guard protection?
Quality Construction and VersatilityThe base layer of the SixSixOne Comp Youth is an attractive, black, full side-zip, long-sleeve shirt of open-weave, athletic stretch fabric. Sewn into the Comp long-sleeve shirt are all of the hard- and soft-shell pads: the beefy hard-shell spine guard, the additional soft-shell shoulder blade pads, the soft-shell chest protector, the combination hard- and soft-shell shoulder pads, and the combination hard- and soft-shell elbow and forearm pads. Sewn into the bottom of the spine guard is a five-inch Velcro spandex waist belt. Up top, there are two Velcro spandex straps to cinch down the shoulder cups as snugly as you desire. On your forearms are two more Velcro spandex straps to cinch tight the forearm and elbow hard-shells.
