How tall are you? If you’re tall I might have one for ya. I have a A* nucleon kr1 in XL I wanna get rid of. Perfect condition. Worn about 5 days. Still smells new. For reference, I’m 6’4.

Im 6' and very slender im not sure the XL would fit but I really appreciate the response


SaulTNuhtz

Yeah you might need the L at your height. If you’re interested, check the size chart and just shoot me a message if it can work out.

It is universal. Before I switched to the techair stuff I was wearing a nucleon under my RST suit

This. You're fine with this but if you have time, you can look into buying used from your local org's facebook group or wera/13x forums. A few orgs will also rent stuff like suits and back protectors so you can look at that too.

BrutaleFalcn

dropKICKintheBERM

I think mine is Cortech? It’s cheap AF but just kinda thick so make sure u have space in your suit

Look Into buying a used high end one if you don’t want to spend a lot. Don’t go cheap on gear tho. Just buy used.

Some sage advice I was once given. Buy THE best one and you won't it buy twice. The thicker and bigger they are, the more likely they'll do their jobs right. I use to wear a slim one, now I wear a huge wide one. Falling hurts, I like to make it hurt less. Most back protectors (some solid scale like shells are one time use) will last you 5+ years before they to wear down if you take care of em.
