Hi everyone!

I just ordered a new jacket and need some advice. The jacket has armor pockets in the shoulders and elbows (but no armor yet). I've seen the kits but was wondering if anyone has recommendations for brands or stores? Are there any I should avoid?

Thanks!

+1. Soft, comfortable, and always on special offer from Infinity (though that's the wrong country for you).

yes, knox is very good, I agree

but normally jackets that come with the pockets for armour will be brands that have their own, like Dainese, they do this. Only trouble is when you find the armour that fits your jacket you're in for a rip off - 60 euro for a back armour!
