Protector jackets and vests with certified Liteshield Plus Protector: EVOC presents new protection wear

September 1, 2020 by Andrew Waldera

Product news: With a completely revised Protection Wear Line, EVOC would like to offer the wearer even more comfort and more back protection. The centerpiece of the new vests and jackets is the certified Liteshield Plus Protector, which, weighing 168 grams, is not only extremely light, but also has level 2 impact protection properties.

New materials, new cuts and equipped with the next generation of Liteshield Plus back protectors: The completely revised Protection Wear Line promises the rider even more comfort and protection. The breathable, quick-drying protective clothing for women, men and children works as a base or second layer and includes vests, shirts and jackets. The certified Liteshield Plus Protector (EN 1621-2) in a two-component sandwich construction provides protection. This consists of a combination of expanded polypropylene (EPP) and a TPU carrier layer. The highly compressed, water-repellent EPP foam is intended to provide the best possible protection for the thoracic and lumbar spine, including the coccyx. The side of the protector facing the back is made up of plus-shaped elements. The surrounding ventilation channels should ensure optimal air circulation on the back. Thanks to the innovative design, the protector elements of the back plate can also be moved in relation to one another, which achieves maximum flexibility.



EVOC Protector Jacket Pro

The Protector Jacket Pro is ideal for letting off steam in bike parks or on local spots. In addition to the new Liteshield Plus back protector, the protector jacket has shoulder protectors (EN 1621-1; Level 2), 3D chest protectors (EN1621-3; Level 1) made of viscoelastic soft foam and perforated EVA padding in the collar, chest and shoulder areas at the level of the hip bones and the coccyx. The backing material made of flexible Lycra jersey fits the body like a second skin and thus ensures maximum comfort. The flexible YKK zip on the front and side makes it easy to put on and take off, and an anti-slip silicone structure applied to the fabric inside the waistband prevents the jacket from riding up, making an additional hip belt unnecessary. The full protector jacket, which weighs just 890 grams, is available in sizes S to XL at a price of 295 euros.

Protector Vest Lite

The lightweight Protector Vest Lite base layer vest is available in both men's and women's versions in different sizes. The Liteshield Plus back protector that comes with the vest is held in place by the Airo Flex hip belt with anti-stick Velcro, which is height-adjustable by eight centimetres. The integrated, perforated EVA padding in the neck area and on the coccyx offer additional protection in the event of rough descents from the bike. An anti-slip silicone structure applied to the fabric prevents the vest from riding up. To prevent bacterial odor formation, the Lycra main material is equipped with Polygiene Odor Crunch. The mesh incorporated under the arms should ensure optimal ventilation even during sweaty activities. The weight of the women's vest is 440 grams, the men's version weighs 40 grams more. Irrespective of this, the price of the Protector Vest Lite vests is 160 euros.

Protector Vest

The Protector Vest should be worn comfortably and loosely like a T-shirt, but at the same time offer the protection of a tank, according to the manufacturer. To ensure that the Liteshield Plus Back Protector does not slip, the designers have given the vest, which is available in two colors (Loam or Carbon Grey), a flexible hip belt made of Airo Flex material with anti-stick Velcro that has been placed on the inside. Integrated EVA padding in the neck area and on the coccyx should offer the rider additional protection in the event of a fall. The main polyester material of the Protector Vest is also equipped with Polygiene Odor Crunch to prevent the formation of bacterial odours. The vest is offered as a women's or men's version in different sizes for 140 euros, the weight is 390 bw. 430 grams. There is also a version for the kids that weighs just 240 grams (sizes JS to JL) and costs 100 euros.
