Leatt 4.5 Youth Chest Protector – Impact Protection for Kids

Leatt 4.5 Junior Chest Protector: Safety Meets Comfort for Young Motocross Riders

Designed for junior motocross riders seeking top-tier safety without sacrificing comfort or mobility, the Leatt 4.5 Junior Chest Protector combines advanced protection with innovative ventilation to keep young athletes cool during intense rides. Perfect for kids aged 8–14 tackling dirt bikes or off-road adventures, this chest guard delivers robust defense against impacts while maintaining breathability even during prolonged use at low speeds.

Key Features & Benefits:
– Multi-Layered Impact Protection: A rigid outer shell shields against crashes, while the 3DF AirFit foam absorbs shocks between the body and shell—ensuring soft cushioning yet uncompromised durability.
– Breathable Design: A moisture-wicking mesh base layer paired with airflow channels disperses heat efficiently, preventing overheating during long sessions on trails or tracks.
– Seamless Compatibility: Engineered with recessed front/back zones that integrate flawlessly with Leatt’s BracOn neck brace system (sold separately), this protector adapts to any setup—whether worn under a jersey for discreet coverage or over it for added visibility on rugged terrain.
– Lightweight Freedom: Weighing just 850g (1.9 lbs), it’s one of the lightest chest guards on the market, allowing juniors to move freely without feeling weighed down during jumps or sprints.

Why Choose Leatt?
Unlike bulkier competitors that trade breathability for protection (e.g., Fox Racing’s Youth Chest Guard), the Leatt 4.5 Junior balances both through its multi-plate articulating design and strategic ventilation slots—ensuring kids stay safe and comfortable across diverse riding conditions. Its CE-certified EN1621-3/2 ratings and FFM approval guarantee compliance with motocross safety standards, while its 12-point Total Leatt™ Protection score outperforms entry-level models in impact resistance tests.

Whether navigating muddy trails or mastering jumps on a dirt bike course, this protector equips young riders with confidence-inspiring defense without hindering their passion for speed and adventure.
