KOBE DuoTec Armor - CE approved

Exclusive new Kobe Duotec armor is among the very best available, and is only one of a few CE approved body armors in the world! Hard armor on the outside and soft foam on the inside combine to make an exceptional package that really works. The hard shell lessens any chance of wear-through or penetration in a crash, and it spreads the impact of the blow over a wider area.

The special energy absorbing E-foam underneath then does it’s job to help keep the impact from being transmitted to the body. The hard shell is molded in a specific pattern to allow flexibilty and prevent pinching and discomfort. Duotec armor is used exclusively in Kobe safety apparel.

Armor Facts:
Most back protectors are just a piece of dense foam, or a cheap foam pad with a plastic cup on it. None of these type armors meet the energy absorbsion level necessary for CE aproval. CE approval is given by an independent safety testing organization in Europe, similar to how the Snell Foundation tests and approves helmets in the US.

The E-Foam found in the Kobe Duotec Armor is very expensive and is rarely used by other manufacturers, even in thin or small pieces. Kobe Duotec armor starts with a 6mm thick base of E-foam, and adds the armor on top to help insure your safety.

Duotec Armor
comes standard in Kobe racing leathers, and is available separately to use in other brands of leathers and most jackets.
