An industry leader in equestrian protection, Hit-Air uses patented technology to take rider safety to new heights. These vests safeguard your chest, neck, spine, lower back, rib cage and vital organs in one durable piece.

Enhanced Protection Without Restrictions

What sets Hit-Air apart is that the vests protect without restricting movements. They’re specially crafted from lightweight, breathable materials that will ensure the rider’s comfort, and the flexible construction allows for a full range of motion in the saddle.

Hit-Air vests are fitted with unique additional protection at the lower back and rib cage, as well as strategically placed airbags to cover the areas most prone to riding injuries. Most importantly, the airbags have outward inflation to reduce the possibility of winding a rider on inflation.
