Chest Protectors

If you have any questions
regarding our equipment
West Vest Gold
A3210, West Vest Platinum, and the "Original" West Vest
are protected by United States Patent # 5,530,966, Canadian
Patent # 2,152,045 and is Patent Pending in Japan. All three
designs are worn by over 90% of the Major League Umpiring
staff and are the only chest protectors endorsed by Major
League Baseball for use by their umpires.
All three protectors have
open cell foam covered by the hard outer plastic for
absorbing the blow from a foul tip or even a bat that has
been thrown in the umpires direction
(they have been tested on professional football players for
strength and durability) . The purpose of the protector is
to cover the torso that is most vulnerable to an injury that
could break a bone (ribs, collar bone) or stop the
heart (sternum) or lungs.

By popular demand Joe West has designed a chest protector
for the smaller umpire. The newly designed WESTVEST GOLD and
WESTVEST PLATINUM now come in a "Smaller Version." Designed
for the umpires who wear smaller than a 38 size jacket. This
new smaller protector afford you the same protection as the
larger version and gives the perfect fit.
