POC designed the Bone VPD Arm Guard to protect your forearm and elbow from your upper arm to your glove. The combination of VPD material and polypropylene shells makes a sturdy, lightweight, comfortable guard.
Generally speaking, there are two types of body armor: soft, flexible
armor that's designed to be comfortable and hard-shell armor that's
designed to absorb huge impacts. As logic would dictate, the soft stuff
doesn't protect as well and the hard stuff isn't as comfortable. Well,
now there's a third kind of armor–POC VPD. As far as we can tell, it's
magic. VPD is a soft, flexible foam material that conforms to the
contours of your body. However, in the event of an impact, it hardens
instantly to provide the protection of a hard shell. It truly is the
best of both worlds. Not only that, but VPD is a true multi-impact
armor, so the protection level during your 20th crash is the same as it
was during your 1st. This is especially important because a fall can
often involve several impacts. You don't want your protection level to
drop off over the course of a fall, because that last hit might be the
hardest.
VPD is lightweight, soft, and flexible, so it's some of
the most comfortable armor that we've tried. Another reason that VPD is
so comfortable is efficient airflow. POC riddles its VPD material with
vents so air flows freely in and out to keep your skin dry and cool, so
you don't roast in the heat of the summer and get that nasty, clammy
feeling under your pads. The main body of the arm guard is
abrasion-resistant Kevlar-reinforced stretch fabric. POC also uses a
static Crash Retention Strap to keep the guard from slipping out of
place.
The POC Bone VPD Arm Guard comes in Black and is available in Small, Medium, and Large.
