Joe Rocket Back Protector

Mrs. Colleen · 07-13-2008, 07:33 PM

Hubby let me open one of my birthday presents a few days early because he said I could use it today...

Love it!

It is the same design and construction as the one my husband has http://www.johnsonleather.com/forcef..._protector.htm which I have been stealing from him for the past year. He chose the Joe Rocket one purely because it was the same thing for cheaper...it just happened to be red.

Two thumbs up IMO. Fits nicely under my jacket and I love the fact that it has shoulder straps.

Nice.

Now model it without clothes so we can get a more accurate sense of coverage.

I have the same protector. That's the one made by T-Pro in England. Johnson Leathers out of San Francisco is the importer for the T-Pro line and has more than just the back protector. There's a chest pad that can be attached to the back protector's suspenders as well.

I have the version that fits in the sleeve in the back of my jacket.

those arent as good because they move around a lot easier than the ones strapped to your back.

/Looks like it was made in the 80s.
