MX jersey for wearing over neck brace

pingvin · 02-19-2013, 11:28 PM

Use pressure suit and have leatt neck brace inside back and chest protector. So jersey must go outside neck brace which is nice once in place as helps keeping brace in place not sliding up.

Problem is that only 1 of my 3 jerseys where wide enough in the neck and killed that in crash (killed my collarbone as well).

Just would like tips on what models/solutions others using pressure suit and neck brace. V-neck, zippers, purpose made (couldn't find any when googling)...

EDIT: By over I don't mean over entire brace, only bottom part

I use a pair of scissors and cut the stitching on two of the seams about an inch. So far the stitching has not come undone any further and the jersey fits over the brace. It is a two person operation to get the jersey on. I can usually take it off unaided.

Yeah, guess as easy as that. Googled a bit more and axo got a shirt for neck braces, looks normal but think mainly just very flexible in neck area. We'll see.
