A new era of flexibility, comfort, and accessibility in rider protection.
Racesafe, trusted British manufacturers of equestrian safety wear and apparel, proudly announce the launch of the HX3, a new body protector designed to deliver essential protection with advanced flexibility and everyday comfort – all at an accessible price point.
Engineered for riders at every level, the HX3 combines a slim, ergonomic profile with Racesafe’s latest innovation: a hexagonal foam structure that enables multi-directional flexibility across multiple axes. The result is a body protector that moves with the rider while meeting the latest BETA 2018 and EN13158:2018 Level 3 safety standards.
A key new feature is adjustable shoulder straps, allowing the HX3 to fit a broader range of body shapes and sizes than ever before. This, combined with an affordable price point, makes Racesafe protection more accessible to more riders — whether training, hacking, or competing.
“With the HX3, we’ve created a body protector that prioritises both comfort and protection, without compromising on affordability,” said James How, Director at Racesafe. “We believe safety should be accessible to every rider, and the HX3 is built to deliver on that promise. It offers the reassurance of Level 3 protection in a lightweight, flexible, and adjustable design riders will want to wear.”
Key features of the HX3 include:
• Innovative hexagonal design for seamless adaptability to movement
• Multi-directional flexibility for freedom in the saddle
• Adjustable shoulders and an extensive size range for a personalised fit
• The thinnest Level 3 body protector in the Racesafe range
• Certified to BETA 2018 and EN13158:2018 (Level 3) safety standards
• Made in the UK for trusted performance and build quality
Backed by over 50 years of R&D, the HX3 reflects Racesafe’s legacy in high-performance body protection and its commitment to evolving with the needs of modern riders.
The HX3 joins the Motion3 in Racesafe’s growing range of Level 3 body protectors and will be available to try and buy at Badminton Horse Trials.
