Fitting Body Protectors

Like riding hats the effectiveness of a Body Protector depends on the correct one for the job being chosen, and on ensuring that the fit of the garment is correct. 

Most riding organisations will accept garments conforming to level 2 or 3, but purchasers should contact the relevant riding organisation if in doubt.

The Revised BETA Standard is recommended by the British Horse Society, British Horse Trials Association, BHS Riding Clubs and the Pony Club.
