hey guys! my first post here i read as much as i could before decided to post. if wrong area my bad help me out.
anyways. in 21 i grade 3 (i think) tore my left ac joint. got surgery was riding racing 6 months later all good. then i broke my right side collarbone, healed naturally. let’s fast forward to 2/26/24 i tore my right side ac joint (grade 3) no surgery this time. i’m in pt still and i’m to the point i want to get back on bike. im looking into new chest protectors with shoulder protection. (i understand blunt force is blunt force but i race harescrambles so these tree whacks suck) i weight 170 and 6’1.
im trying to find a chest protector with shoulder protection i can wear under the jersey without looking like ima start MLB in the nfl. or smarter to get the evs brace and a normal chest? i’m really debating the a star a 6. anyone wear it under jersey? if i don’t go that route i was going to go a star a4 and that evs shoulder brace? any input on this? thanks!

I have broken my collarbone and had AC separations both with and without shoulder pads. If you feel comfortable and more safe with shoulder pads wear them, If not don’t wear them. Shoulder pads are made to protect the shoulder joint not the collarbone.
