The risks involved with equestrian sports means that it’s always advised to be equipped with correctly fitting safety wear. That includes a professionally-fitted riding hat and back protector. Racesafe is a brand which puts rider safety at the heart of everything they do, and since the company was founded in 1970 has strived to make the equestrian world safer.
Whether you’re competing at the highest levels of eventing or attending your first hunter trial, a body protector is an essential requirement for cross country riding. Designed to limit the risk of serious injury to the rider’s back and torso in the event of a fall, a back protector is an important piece of your riding kit.
Racesafe is a company which is continually researching and developing materials and techniques to keep riders safe, and every item produced meets the highest levels of safety standards required by organisations such as British Eventing, British Riding Clubs and the FEI. You’ll be able to quickly see that your Race safe body protector is up to standard by the visible ‘BETA’ tag.
Within the range of Racesafe back protectors is the popular Racesafe Provent 3.0. Many people worry that wearing a body protector will feel restrictive, but that is certainly not the case with the Provent 3; this back protector is extremely lightweight and breathable without compromising its high levels of protection. While safety is always the key focus, comfort is a priority considered in every design. The Racesafe Provent has a contoured fit which means that it fits to your body like a second skin, eliminating the bulky feeling caused by so many other body protectors. This Racesafe back protector is so comfy and lightweight that many riders will forget they’re even wearing it!
When it comes to equestrian safety and performance, Racesafe is a go-to brand which is tried, tested and trusted by riders of all abilities all across the world. At Chelford Farm Supplies we’re proud to be a leading stockist of rider safety wear, including an extensive range of horse riding body protectors.
