A rigorous standard for protections

Regulation (EU) 2016/425 is a regulation that applied to body protection equipment. This back protector has been tested for shock absorption using impact tests in accordance with the EN1621-2 level 1 standard.

Liam Tourki, a rider for the French Freestyle Half Pipe team, approves of this back protector and wore it during the 2022 Beijing Olympics.

Choosing the right size is essential for good protection.

To get your protective base layer in the right size, here is a recommended size chart based on your chest measurement (height is given as a reference):

CHEST MEASUREMENT:

Size S = 87 to 93 cm (between 166 and 172 cm approx.)
Size M = 83 to 99 cm (between 172 and 177 cm approx.)
Size L = 99 to 107 cm (between 177 and 183 cm approx.)
Size XL = 107 to 117 cm (between 183 and 192 cm approx.)
Size XXL = 117 to 127 cm (> 192 cm approx.)

Perfect compatibility with your jacket thanks to the ZIPROTEC technology

At Wedze, we are proud to design products that make your life easier and protect you. ZIPROTECT technology enable you to combine your back protection with SNB JKT 500 and SNB JKT 900 jackets in our collection. No need to think in the morning, just put on your jacket to be protected from knocks during any calls.

Back protection designed as part of an overall outfit.

The back protector is designed to go with the protective shorts that will be available shortly, as well as the rest of the outfit. It has practical ties to attach the back protection to the belt loops of the shorts or trousers so that it does not ride up when you move.

Precautions for use

Remember not to leave your back protector in the car at night or in a cold environment before wearing it. Indeed, the protective component reacts to cold and hardens if left in such conditions for a prolonged period. Body heat or a heated room is enough to make it flexible again.

Wash with zip closed.
