Inside the Award-Winning Material Behind the Best MTB Chest Protector
"When you think of MTB protection, you often envision bulky and rigid pads, uncomfortable straps, and restricted movement, particularly with chest and back protection. The new Fox Racing Airframe with KOROYD is different. The auxetic design of the KOROYD material means that the contraction or expansion of the insert doesn't hinder coverage and protection. But it's this same design feature that also makes it absurdly breathable and lightweight."
"In my decades of riding, I've rarely used chest and back protection because of the added bulk and restricted movement that many of them bring to the riding kit. After testing and loving the Fox Racing Enduro Knee Sleeves with KOROYD, this new Airframe Chest Guard is one of the first back and chest protection options that I'm seriously excited to check out - stay tuned for a full review."
Fox Racing Airframe Chest Guard integrates CE Level 1 KOROYD chest and back inserts into a lightweight, low-profile design that conforms to the body. Adjustable shoulder straps, a waistband with fast-action buckles, and removable collarbone and upper chest pads provide customizable coverage. The unit is CE EN 1621-2 Level 1 certified for back protection and CE prEN 1621-3 Level 1 certified for chest protection. KOROYD’s auxetic structure allows contraction and expansion without reducing coverage, delivering exceptional breathability and consistent impact performance across temperature variations, reducing bulk and movement restriction that deters riders from wearing protection.
