    Offroad body armour recommendations?

    Hey guys, I'm after some body armor (don't really wanna spend a fortune), I'm looking at something like the O'neal underdog, or the 661 pressure suit, but I've seen one on 1tonnes website which seems pretty decent. (and is like half the cost of the other brands!) has anyone had any experience with these, or would recommend something else?

    Basically, what would you get?

    What you pay for in a word.

    We do the KNOX ones but these are not cheap but they are arguably the best in the world, price estimate is around $400

    I used to do the cheap styles but they where and looked cheap and my bones are more important to me.

    Go Into Boyds today they have a stupid cheap sale on this weekend, I saw some pressure suits in there
    Ive run out of fucks to give

    I've got a 661 Pressure suit, size adult medium. Haven't used it in about a year.. no serious bins in it, a couple of low speeds offs in gravel and mud. Can't see me using it since my drz has been stolen. Would let you have it for cheapish (200 or so) if you're keen.

    Sorry denefoster, but I'm at least a large.

    Well getting what you pay for sounds about right Quasi, thanks for the opinion, something to consider I guess.
