Re: Chest protector anyone??

Yea I'm still sore a month later on my left side of the chest but seems to be internalish. Hurts when I move certain ways or breathe deeply etc at times but not when I apply pressure externally....
Figure it couldn't hurt to have something in there next time.

You see, that's why I hesitate when answering your questions; you tend to get all detailed and personal and ****. Like I wanna hear about all of your problems.

Do they make them with, uh, darts in them? I have a couple of things that might get in the way.

Re: Chest protector anyone??

How much do they want for these things? The order form is not informative.
