I purchased to use this as a full chest and ribcage protector. These run large, even the small fits a bit large- I wear a 44 Euro Dainese jacket for reference. Due to it running slightly large, it is a bit uncomfortable if I bend my torso forward too much. It is very secure with the shoulder straps and the large velro strap.

As with other Forcefield products, the chest armor is very comfortable and molds to the body quiet fast. I can not comment about the protection for I have not crashed in it, but it seems that Forcefield is the leader in armour according to the ce tests. The only complaint is that it no longer comes with the harness as mentioned, so if you occasionally like to ride without stand alone back armour you need to purchase it. Also I wish the coverage was a bit more of the sides of the ribcage. As for sizing, I wear size 44 euro and choose the medium, which seems to fit well in terms of height.

Can you wear pieces seperately?

I am wondering if you can wear the chest protector separately or if both must be used together.

Sizing for Euro 44 Dainese people

I wear a size 44 euro for Dainese jackets very snug with a back protector. But Rev It sizing chart states 46 is for 35-36 chest, does that mean it is tighter fitting than most brands for euro 46 since they are for 36 chest? It seems Dainese is the only major motorcycling brand that makes jackets for Euro 44 without special ordering.

Replacement and Sport Hump.

It was mentioned in the video that the santa monica was a step up from this jacket, but I heard it is actually the replacement is that true? If it is an upgrade what are the benefits of the santa monica over the rebel?

Also is the sport hump on the rebel smaller than that of the santa monica and del mar?

Resoling?

Does dainese sell soles to get them resoled when worn or is it made that they just can not be resoled?
