Bought for Mesh-Tex 2.0 hips
I bought these to upgrade the hip armor in my new Firstgear Mesh-Tex 2.0. I bought the armor when I ordered the pants. The armor is nicely made, but does not have any means of attachment, so it must fit snugly in a armor pocket that will hold its shape, in this application I had to leave the original hip armor in place to help hold the Hiprotec in position.

Armor Review
When I received this armor I was surprised by its flexibility. I've been intending on buying armor for my leather jacket for several years and finally broke down and did it. Each component fit well within the shoulder and elbow armor pockets of my jacket. It took me a little time to decide exactly how I wanted it oriented since there is no documentation provided with this product. Once in place I did notice a minor issue with it folding over on itself until I was able to do final adjustments of its placement. Overall I'm pretty satisfied with this product and definitely have a little more protection than I did before.

Hiprotec Comfort Armor
Very thin and comfortable. Unless you want shaped rigid armor for shoulder or knee, this is the way to go.
