Chest Protection, Anyone?

rusty bodie · Oct 26, 2015

does anyone know if you can still get the good old fashioned chamoix (shammy!) chest protector? my assos windblock top is great but still get the cold chest on a descent.

and i'm not sticking a daily star up my jook either!

Would a Gilet work?

We bought some Windstopper fronted thermals a few years ago. Only about 15 quid a pop. Use them all the time now. Any time we train other than ideal weather, just stick one on as an additional bit of protection.

hilarious!!

i already own one but it's not enough to keep the icy scottish blast off of my lungs! :shock:

the gilet is perhaps the answer, so thanks for that. do you have a link for that windstopper?

Unfortunately a Google is leading to nothing, except 50 quid designer base layers.

The ones we have are essentially string/mesh vests with a square of windstopper material on the front......

You could probably make your own for a fiver a pop!
