Progrip 3400 Goggles, EVS Sports Revo 4 Chest Protector - Dirt Bike Gear

Progrip
34OO Goggles
Goggles come and go, with the ones that fit the best sticking around as favorites. But I've always had two dilemmas with goggles. One, deciding on the right tint or color of the lens, and two, fogging of the lens, even on warm days. Well, Progrip might have been reading my mind when it came up with the lens in the 3400. It is light-sensitive, and it really works. Just cover half of it and hold it in the sun for 20 seconds and you'll see-and your eyes will know after a long day of riding, especially if it gets dark on you! Plus, this is far and away the best no-fog lens I've ever tried. It never fogged one bit, even in the worst winter riding.

A super bonus for me is that the frame, with its soft and durable foam, fit my face perfectly and squeezed into even the most cramped helmet openings. And the venting is just right; enough to keep you cool but not enough to dry out your eyes or let in much dust. Sweat absorption is on par with anything out there. Truly, the only downside is the inside of the lens will scratch easily if cleaned with anything other than a very soft cloth. Also, when riding from a bright area into dark woods, you'll need a few seconds for the lens to lighten up, but it is never too dark. It comes with tear-off buttons already on the lens, and the adjustable strap is rubberized on the back to minimize slippage. There are tons of frame colors and designs on the $49 goggle, most with a black strap, but there are a few special variations, including the Army, Italy and USA designs. -Jimmy Lewis

Revo 4 Chest Protector
Let's face it; getting roosted is no fun. With the EVS Revo 4 chest protector, you can minimize those red welts on your chest while staying unrestricted, cool and protected. Constructed of lightweight foam and durable clear Lexan plastic, the Revo 4 is well-built and definitely worth its $65 price tag. The over-or-under design fits great, and the armor breathes well and is extremely easy to clean. The coverage area of the guard is great in front, but it would be nice to see a bit more protection in the spinal area. Still, this product is designed to deflect roost, and it definitely does that well. The Revo 4 seems to be sized a bit large, so featherweight riders may want to opt for something that fits tighter. It also tends to chafe in a few areas, particularly the side straps and front piece. But overall, this product is a very solid roost deflector and will definitely help keep you safe from that nasty moto-shrapnel. -Chris Denison
