Troy Lee 7855 Hot Weather Body Armor: Great Design for Great Coverage
Troy Lee’s 7855 body armor embodies the company’s second-to-none design aesthetic that meldd form with function. The 7855 strategically places one of three types of half-inch padding to cover the chest, abdomen, ribs, spine, shoulders, biceps, and forearms. One of the unique qualities of this protective shirt is that it provides full circumference coverage around your abdomen, so that the full ribcage is covered. Troy Lee also added vented foam and extended coverage in the lower abdomen, lower ribs/sides, and lower back/kidney sides. All of these extended areas maintain key flex points, so that more coverage doesn’t mean less comfort. The hex mesh fabric used throughout is breathable and vented, keeping you cool no matter how hard you’re riding. In addition, the 7855 hot weather protective shirt is supremely customizable to your needs. This upper body armor is compatible with most leading neck braces and most of the pads are removable for cleaning or accommodate specific riding conditions. In addition, the Troy Lee 7855 can provide upper body protection across a range of extreme sports; wear it as mountain bike body armor, motocross body armor, snowboard body armor, or ski body armor.
