In partnership with German-based SAS-TEC, the leading manufacturer of limb and back protection, we developed this new soft, ventilated and super comfortable back protector to fit into our new Adventure Shirts—coming Fall 2022. It will fit into other manufacturers’ garments as well. Please see the dimensions for a perfect fit.
This new protector currently not only meets but exceeds Level 2 certification and is multi-impact compliant. Meaning, unlike other manufacturers’ back protectors, it remains fully functional even after repeated hits.
Ce-Level 2 Armor is European-designed and manufactured (by SAS-TEC) to provide maximum comfort as well as maximum protection. The viscoelastic soft foam is lightweight and conforms to your anatomy for all-day wearability yet reacts immediately to disperse the force of even minor impacts away from the human body. Its system of interlocking polygons allows it to flex and move with the rider but lock into position to provide full-coverage protection.
Replacing a chest protector from another manufacturer? Are you looking to replace the useless foam that comes with many armored jackets and shirts? Upgrade your chest armor to Bohn Armor!Please see the dimensions for your current back protector. Dimensions should be close or exact: Size 12.5 in wide x 9 in long x .56 in thick – 7oz.
Chest armor is sold individually so please order one piece per garment.

Armor Care and Installation
Cleaning:
We recommend removing the armor from your Bohn gear from time to time to clean it as detergent residue, salt (including body salt) and moisture can stick to it and negatively affect the armor.
Armor pieces should NOT be placed in the washing machine or dryer, but may be wiped clean with a damp cloth if they become soiled.
Temperature:
We recommend storing your protectors in temperatures above 60 degrees. Extreme temperatures will not affect the effectiveness of the protector, but extreme cold in addition to stress on the protector (ie. bending of the armor when cold) can cause the pieces to crack.
A such, do not stress the protectors in extremely cold weather conditions. (For example, leaving pieces in a cold garage and then putting them on can cause armor with articulation to crack at the articulation points.)
Just use good judgment when wearing the protectors and try your best to keep them against your warm body. DO NOT use frozen protectors–bring them inside to warm up and then use.
Warranty:
Limb armor, like your helmet, has an expiration date typically 5-10 years from manufacture.
If you have Bohn armor that is 5-10 years old and is "crumbling", you need to replace it. If only one piece is crumbling, the other pieces are sure to follow. This means your armor has expired and all pieces should be replaced as they were likely manufactured at the same time.
Cracking of Level 2 armor pieces is not warrantied as this means one of two things:
The armor placement is incorrect on your body (see proper placement graphic below). OR
It has been subjected to cold extreme temperatures and then bent or used while frozen or cold.
If your protector is affected and you are confident that you have taken care of your protector, please give us a call.
Installation
To install armor into Bohn Armor Products, please see individual product.
When installing, armor can be squeezed to fit into pockets but the armor must be warmed to room temperature.
Armor can be trimmed as needed.
