Frequently Asked Questions

Who is the T-17 Chest Guard designed for — coaches or fighters?

RDX builds the T-17 Chest Guard as a coaching aid for MMA and boxing, so it is aimed primarily at coaches and pad holders who absorb repeated body shots during pad rounds. Fighters can also wear it for body-shot sparring where extra rib and chest protection is needed. The EVA-LUTION™ sheet, Max-Shock™ Equilibrium foam and Sponge X padding system is built for sustained, high-impact use.

How does the padding absorb impact?

The guard combines three padding elements: an EVA-LUTION™ sheet, Max-Shock™ Equilibrium foam and Sponge X padding. Together they neutralise the force of a strike and spread what remains across the whole chest and rib area instead of letting it land in one spot.

How does the fit and sizing adjustment work?

The T-17 is ergonomically shaped for a snug fit with unrestricted mobility, and the strap system across the back adjusts to suit different body sizes. It is supplied in a single size, in Black/Gold, Red/Black and Blue/Black.

Is the inner lining comfortable for long sessions?

Yes — the inside is lined with REACH-compliant Dazzle Fabric, chosen for breathability and comfort, so the guard stays wearable through extended pad and sparring work.
