Superior Headgear and Vests

Body Armour’s rugby headgear range has been marketed worldwide as Canterbury of New Zealand (CCC) for more than 25 years.

These superior made headgear together with our Body Armour New Zealand vests are proven market leaders which are copied by many brands.

Body Armour uses technical fabrics and materials for its’ range of protective items to give the wearer the best and most comfortable fit, ventilation and protection from knocks and bruises.

The highest quality chemically cross-linked impact absorbing foam is used for our padding with a standardised density. Lesser quality foam can contain ‘fillers’, which reduce protection.

The nylon and polyester fabrics used are breathable and able to transfer moisture away from the body.

The vests are close-fitting, using super stretch polyester/spandex to minimise impact on players' movement. The cut of the sleeves make arm movement for binding and jumping easier. The bias cut design details reduce riding up.
