EVS Makes mostly dirt stuff. I'm not sure if that jacket would fit under leathers.

Yep, they sure do, and it's gorgeous! I am happy with mine, but when I am ready for a new one I'll probably look into that one.

Hell, if you want chest/back protection on the cheap get an Icon Field Armor vest. It's a HELL of a lot better than nothing!

That setup looks very comfortable, albeit pricey. I'm going to be looking into a chest/back protector combo pretty soon and will consider this one. I need it to be pretty thin to fit under my suit, that's the only constraint.

The A-Stars one fits very nice under my suit, I'd recommend taking a look at it.

DAMN.... that thing also looks great... really nice.

The dainese one has sleeves which I dont need since all my shit has elbow armor already, and I'm always too hot anyways so I don't need more coverage.

The a* one will probably be my choice since it's cheaper, but if I run into some ching that spidi piece is SICK.

Update:

Considering the spidi defender, seen in the above post, or the knox contour race back protector and the attachable chest protector (the straps from the back protector run through it), both shown below:

Anyone have any experience?

I like the defender because it is one unit and looks solid and nice and thin. My only concern with it is whether or not the back goes down far enough to provide ample tailbone coverage.

The knox combo looks to be pretty awesome and the back part is CE level 2 which is mo betta.

I need to figure this out fairly soon to run my 'new' 1piece at the track...

The race version looks to go well into the buttcrack for adequate coccyx coverage...

Dainese makes some fucking sweet gear. One day, when im making tons of scrilla, i'll be on that shit like a fat man in a candy store the day after a cure for diabetes.

Kangaroo leather. Shit's sick. The wifey bought me the Laguna Seca jacket to match my Laguna 1-peice. Kangaroo leather is so fucking soft, it feels like it's already broken in.
