POC is a Swedish innovator and manufacturer of next level body protection and apparel for cycling and snow sports. Their prime motive is to potentially save lives and dramatically reduce the consequences of accidents, working alongside anatomy specialists and athletes alike to produce the best hardware possible.
Protection designed for the highest level of security in the most demanding competition settings.
When freedom of movement matters most, and when reliable protection is a must, the VPD Air Comp jacket delivers. Designed for a seamless fit under a speed suit, the half-body jacket maximizes freedom of movement and minimizes bulk. Eight separate VPD pads are strategically placed for ultimate protection across the arms and shoulders, giving freedom of movement without leaving any part of the arm exposed. Protection on the lower arms is removable, meaning the jacket can be used by riders who prefer hard-shell protectors on top of the speed suit. Longer arms with thumbhole openings keep the jacket in place, and mesh construction in the armpit provide maximum breathability.
