Highlights & Technologies:

VPD:
This protector system is anatomically designed and follows all your movements. The flexible material hardens on impact to effectively protect from injuries. Afterwards, it returns back to its original shape. Since it converts from a soft pad to a hard, protective shield with high shock absorbency on impact, you no longer have to decide between freedom of movement and sufficient protection. In addition, VPD offers improve flexibility in cold temperatures, as well as increased tear resistance.
