Alpinestars Rib Protector for Kids

Alpinestars Rib Protector for Kids is specially designed for young kart drivers who need maximum protection, comfort, and freedom of movement during practice sessions and races. Thanks to its ergonomic design, this rib protector fits the body perfectly and provides excellent support for the rib cage.

The rib protector features an advanced multi-layered protection system that absorbs shocks, distributes impact forces, and reduces pressure on the ribs. This provides optimal protection for the ribs and chest against the stresses encountered during karting.

Advanced multi-layer protection

The Alpinestars Rib Support consists of several protective layers that work together to provide maximum safety:

• Double-layered padding for extra comfort while wearing
• A 3-mm layer of dense foam that conforms gently to the body
• 4 mm EVA foam layer for effective shock absorption and impact protection
• Fiberglass panel that absorbs shocks and distributes them over a larger surface area to reduce pressure on the ribs

This combination provides the perfect balance between protection, comfort, and flexibility.

Adjustable fit for growing riders

The Alpinestars Rib Protector Kids features an adjustable system on the back, allowing the fit to be easily adjusted to the child's body type.

Thanks to the three Velcro straps, the rib protector can be precisely adjusted for maximum protection and comfort.
