Leatt Brace 5.5 Pro HD Chest Protector – Black – Adult | High-Impact Front & Back Protection

Product overview

The Leatt Brace 5.5 Pro HD Chest Protector is designed for riders who seek top-tier protection without sacrificing mobility. As the pinnacle of the 5.5 protection line, it blends a rugged hard-shell outer with advanced 3DF foam to deliver reinforced front and back impact management while staying flexible enough for dynamic riding.

Key features that matter on a ride

• Eight articulated plates form a three-dimensional, contoured silhouette that moves with your body.
• Hardshell flank protection, lined with 3DF foam, adds layered coverage to the sides where you need it most.
• Front and back plates work together with the foam layers to create a multilayer protection area.
• Exclusive FlipFit system with movable front and rear plates lets your neck brace sit under the protector or wear the protector under your jersey with the brace over the top.
• BraceOn strap system attaches to the neck brace while allowing independent movement of the body, brace, and protector for a balanced feel.
• The shoulder protectors are impact-tested and CE certified (EN 1621-1) for added assurance.
• 47 ventilation slots promote airflow to help you stay cooler during longer sessions.
• Versatile sizing and wear options: fits over or under the jersey, with an adult size roughly 70–85 kg (150–190 lbs).

What to expect in practice

Riders can experience a snug, secure fit that moves with them, thanks to the eight-plate architecture and flexible foam core. The flank protection naturally integrates with the front and back plates for a cohesive layer of coverage, while the FlipFit design provides wardrobe flexibility depending on jersey and neck brace setup. The BraceOn system helps keep things aligned during aggressive moves without restricting independent motion, and the breathable layout with 47 slots supports ventilation during warm rides. This protector is built to complement most neck-brace configurations and to wear comfortably under or over your jersey, depending on preference and ride conditions.

Consider this protector if you want a high level of front, back, and flank protection paired with a modular fit that adapts to how you ride. It emphasizes a balanced option that prioritizes protection, fit, and airflow, all without promising guaranteed results. Your experience may vary with riding style and conditions.
