DescriptionThe whole story▼
Engineered specifically for the female rider, the Knox Micro-Lock Chest Protector delivers all-day wearing comfort without ever compromising on certified front impact protection. Its anatomically shaped profile sits close to the body from the first kilometre to the last, making it as suited to a long touring day as it is to a spirited sporting ride.
Key Features
- Micro-Lock material is soft and flexible at rest, then stiffens instantly on impact to absorb and disperse energy
- CE-certified to EN 1621-3 Level 1 for verified front impact protection
- Anatomically contoured specifically for female body geometry — no pressure points, genuine freedom of movement
- One-size design with a flexible fitting system that adapts precisely to your shape
- Low-profile, perforated construction stays breathable and discreet under any jacket
- Mesh carrier system adds further ventilation for long-distance comfort
Micro-Lock Technology: Comfort That Reacts When It Matters
Knox's Micro-Lock compound is what sets this protector apart from conventional rigid chest armour. At riding temperature it remains pliable and body-conforming, moving naturally with you rather than fighting your posture. The moment it detects an impact, the material hardens and distributes force across its full surface area, significantly reducing the load transferred to the chest and sternum. The result is a protector you genuinely forget you are wearing — until the moment it is most needed.
Designed for Women, Optimised for All-Day Wear
Too many protective garments are simply scaled-down versions of men's armour. The Knox Micro-Lock Chest Protector for Women is built from a different starting point entirely. The contoured shape follows female anatomy precisely, sitting flush against the body without gaps or bulk. Combined with the single-size adjustable retention system, it delivers a secure, stable fit across a wide range of body shapes without bunching or riding up during long stints in the saddle.
Compatible with Knox Back Protectors
The Micro-Lock Chest Protector is designed as a direct add-on to existing Knox back protector systems, completing your front-and-rear protection setup with minimal effort. The secure attachment mechanism clips into place quickly and holds firmly throughout a ride, while remaining simple to remove or reposition. Whether you are upgrading an existing Knox setup or building a new one from scratch, integration is straightforward.
