Champro Pro-Plus Umpire Chest Protector

Very nice chest protector, I have been hit by baseballs and softballs and have not been hurt. I am happy with my purchase and would recommend to others. Fits true to size.

Lightweight and easily adjustable. I'm a big man and it fits great. Took a foul ball off the shoulder and hardly felt it.

Lightweight and affordable. Works great at lower level baseball.

I wore this chest protector for two seasons of youth travel and HS JV games. It's easy to put on, does a solid job for those levels in terms of protection, and I liked the fact that it had a removable extension. The only reason that I don't wear it anymore is because I had a chance to pick up a West Vest at a great price and so I sold this one to a young umpire to help them get going. The only negative that I can think of is that I was not a fan of the factory harness.

Feels comfortable, light, haven't gotten hit yet, but padding is quite thick, I'm sure It'll do it's job.

Lightweight, affordable protection for fast pitch softball. Adjustment straps only took 5 minutes to get a comfortable fit. Ventilation keeps me relatively cool on the most demanding weather days. Offers me much needed shoulder protection.

It's kinda cheap and extremely difficult to adjust. It took me about 15-20 mins to adjust but I guess you get what you pay for. Probably would not buy it if I had seen it before buying.

I like the protection and how light it is. I know this sounds lame but it takes a while to get it to fit right. The straps are kind of fickle but once you finally get it adjusted just right it stays on nicely and is good for foul balls.

I bought this 6 years ago as a first year umpire and it has served me well. Protective, comfortable (incl. in summer). At 6'4", I bought the chest extension and bicep extensions after having taken some severe hits and highly recommend them. Protector does need adjusting but once done, fits very well.

Have had this protector four seasons and it's still in great condition. Absorbs impact well and is not uncomfortable on hot days. Several of my fellow umpires tried mine and then ordered one for themselves. It's very easy to clean up and doesn't odor up like some protectors.

I ordered this protector as a supplement to my West Vest when doing Little League games. I found many of the features amenable, with one exception. the little flaps underneath the armpits were very uncomfortable and restrictive when I was in my box stance, to the point that I actually returned it. If it hadn't been for that, I feel I would have enjoyed the light weight and good protection for the price. If you have a different stance or body style (I'm a beanpole), it might work better for you. This was my first choice of soft protectors offered by Ump-Attire.com, but unfortunately it wasn't as comfortable as I had hoped.

Great item, has held up well after many uses. Stay in place and as always, very fast shipping.

First of all, The service is great and it came to me quick, I am very satisfied. Now with the chest protector, it is the best chest protector I have ever used, during the last few games I umpired during Fall Ball I got hit like 5 times with the ball and did not feel a thing. I would Recommend this at Little or High School leagues.

I started umping last year and needed an inexpensive but good quality protector in a hurry. I purchased the Champro combo set and was impressed by the protection, fit and speed of recieving by ump equipment. I may get the bicep extensions though after taking some fouls during men's league. I will definitely suggest the Champro brand and Ump-attire.com to fellow umps up here. This site was suggested to me during my umpire training in Brandon,Manitoba.

I ordered this protector with the lower addition last year and wore it through the season and took several good shots with it on. No problems. Very comfortable. Not heavy for hard shell vest. Dries quick after a hot day. You can spend more but I can't see why you would. Go ahead and get the Bicep extensions. I just ordered mine to add on. Found out the hard way, during post season play last summer that $13 bucks ain't bad for that add on!!

Used it last night for the first time in a LL game. Stayed in place very well. I took a direct shot to the middle of the chest and didn't feel a thing. Great protection for the money!

This is a good chest protector if your just starting out and have a limited budget. I've done over 200 baseball/softball games ranging from little league to high school level wearing this chest protector and this protector has done fairly well. Only complaint I have is the shoulder protection. I got hit with a foul ball once and it left a huge bruise on my shoulder. It also can get really hot in the summer. Overall, not bad for the price

I purchased my chest protector about 6 years ago and I absolutely love it. I tried about 3 or 4 other brands and Champro was the best for the money. I umpire middle school, junior, senior, Big League, and Little league divisions here in Indiana. I have taken quite a few foul balls off the chest protector and it flexes great. You feel the impact but not the shock. I would recommend this chest protector to anyone starting off with a small budget like I did.
