I am 6'5" 225lbs looking for advice on the best under jersey chest protector. Needs to be leatt compatible.

Alpinestars - MX Tactical BNS Vest, Troy Lee Designs - 2011 BP7850-HW Short Sleeve Protective Shirt, or any other you may recommend. Thanks for any input

the new fox one is good for over and under the jersey! Works for all neck braces, very light.

I am in the same boat..... 6'3" and about 270..... I would like an over the jersey like the Thor Sentinal but from what I have heard they run way small.....

What I would like the best would be a front only chest protector, like the old school JT one...... but for a big guy!

I'm 6'2' 180 and i wear a thor sentinal. They do run a little small, but they work really good, they are durable, and the are very comfertable for a over-jersey protector. They don't look to bad either. Plus they work with the leatt in you tuck in under the protector. The combo feels good and works really good.

I'm 6'3" and a stealthy 235...

The Troy Lee Designs CP5955 or 5900 is the way to go. No two ways about it.
you can also wear it on the outside if you like. Go try one on and move around. It's like you're not even wearing the thing.
It's amazing.

X2, these are really nice.

I used to have a Thor quadrant deflector SE and hated it as it would bunch up in the front.
