I don't have one of these brands but...
Try on all the manufactured chest protectors and decide for yourself which
one fits best, does what your looking for (mx, sx, woods, etc). Then choose
which one YOU like best. Everybody is built different and requirements vary
from rider to rider.

I wish I could, but where I live the dealers don't carry anything I have to order. The closest place with everything is 5 hours away.

I have the thor. Very comfortable, but it doesn't come down your arms, like most do.

Some chest protectors are just a peice of plastic that sits on your shoulders. Consider function as well as fit. Get one that is suspended off of your shoulders with a mesh plus foam padding on the underside. Arm protection is good for woods riding and taking roost. I use the HRP flak jacket type, collar bones still like new. What I am trying to say is get the one that absorbs the blow and disapates it away from your body and not into it. Its better to ride than to heal!
