Give your young rider peace of mind for their first rides with the T de TVo Kids’ Cross Body Protector, specially designed to support and protect children during all their equestrian adventures. Far more than a simple vest, this children’s body protector is the result of thoughtful design, combining comfort, freedom of movement, and maximum safety, so every outing on horseback is undertaken with complete confidence.
Articulated safety: smart protection tailored for kids
The world of cross-country and other equestrian disciplines requires reliable protection specifically adapted to a growing child’s body. The T de TVo Kids’ Cross Body Protector sets new standards thanks to its articulated foam blocks, cleverly positioned to follow every curve of the moving torso. This segmented architecture covers all critical areas—back, sides, and chest—while allowing for the rider’s natural movements. Each panel effectively absorbs and dissipates the energy from an impact, reducing the risk of serious injury, even in the event of an unexpected fall.
Unlike classic one-piece protectors, the Cross T’s multi-segment structure stands out by following every extension, rotation, and flexion of the upper body, ensuring continuous, non-restrictive protection while riding. This unique articulation enables children to move freely at both trot and canter, allowing them to learn and progress unhindered and in comfort.
Optimized comfort and personalized fit
Because protective gear is only effective if it’s worn properly, the Cross T vest uses a clever, easy-fit system. With three large tabs on each side of the torso and two additional shoulder tabs, every body protector adjusts to the child’s constantly changing shape. This exclusive device allows for fast, precise adjustments—even over a sweater, fleece, or shirt—accommodating your young rider’s growth throughout the season.
The soft, hypoallergenic, ventilated foam ensures breathability during activity. Designed for long days at the stable or on the trail, it prevents overheating and excessive sweating, even after hours of wear. Carefully finished edges provide a gentle feel against the skin and eliminate chafing, encouraging kids to wear their protection regularly—without complaints or discomfort.
Practical features and a safety detail for parents
Safety goes beyond being merely physical. The T de TVo Kids’ Cross Body Protector features a discreet Velcro-fastened chest pocket, designed to hold essential medical information: allergies, blood type, emergency contacts, and more. In case of an accident, this detail can be vital for first responders, offering peace of mind to both child and parent.
Lightweight, compact, and discreet under a vest or jacket, it accompanies your child for all equestrian activities: riding school, endurance outings, groundwork, or first jumping lessons. Its sleek black design matches any riding outfit, while maintaining the robustness needed for intensive use on the field.
Ce en 13158 level 3 safety standard: assurance you can trust
Ensuring that the vest meets the strictest European standards is essential for the peace of mind of families, instructors, and clubs. With the T de TVo Kids’ Cross Body Protector, you’re choosing a rigorously certified product that meets the CE EN 13158 Level 3 standard, the highest requirement for both competition and leisure. This certification guarantees a high level of shock absorption and thorough mechanical testing, carried out in accordance with regulations in effect since July 2009.
This “Level 3” standard attests to optimum performance against torso injuries during a fall or impact with an obstacle, ground, or hoof. Your child therefore benefits from protection that exceeds the minimum required for competition, meeting the expectations of clubs, federations, and equestrian event organizers.
Who is it for? versatility and peace of mind for all young riders
The T de TVo Kids’ Cross Body Protector is for all young riders—beginners or experienced—regardless of discipline. Whether it’s for pony games, learning vaulting, first competitions, or simply trail rides, this protection adapts to every need. It’s especially recommended for children doing cross-country, driving, or show jumping, where risks are greater and safety cannot be compromised.
Its unisex design and adjustable features guarantee use across several seasons, even as your child grows. For families with multiple young riders, the protector can easily be adjusted from one child to another, offering excellent durability and adaptability.
