What does double-sided mean and how do I switch between Red and Blue?

The T2 chest protector has a Red side and a Blue side — simply flip the guard and fasten it the other way around to change colour. This is designed for TKD competition where Red and Blue are used to distinguish competitors, allowing a single guard to serve both roles without purchasing two separate units. Both sides use the same foam-laminate construction — the colour difference is on the outer surface only.

What is the EVA-LUTION foam and Supremo-Shock Foam™ combination?

The chest area of the T2 uses 18mm of compressed EVA-LUTION foam (providing the structural body and shape retention) laminated with 8mm of Supremo-Shock Foam™ (a softer, higher-energy-absorption layer). The two-layer combination is designed for TKD kicks: the EVA layer handles repeated low-to-medium force impacts without compressing permanently, while the Supremo layer absorbs the high-energy spike from a fast, direct kick. Together they provide more consistent protection than either material alone over a long sparring session.

What age is the Small/Medium size suitable for?

Small/Medium is recommended for athletes up to approximately 14 years of age. For younger children or those with a smaller frame, Small/Medium will provide appropriate coverage. For teenagers approaching adult dimensions, measure the chest circumference and match to the size chart. Large and above are adult sizes. If a youth athlete is between sizes, err on the side of the larger size for better rib and sternum coverage.

Is this chest guard suitable for competition TKD?

The T2 is designed for TKD training and sparring. For sanctioned competition, check with your governing body (e.g., World Taekwondo or ITF) for approved equipment lists, as specific brands and specifications may be required at certain levels. Many governing bodies maintain an approved list — confirm the T2 is on it before competing. For club training and non-sanctioned sparring, the T2 is appropriate for all skill levels.
