Salomon FLEXCELL PRO BLACK Protective Vest

The Salomon FLEXCELL PRO BLACK Unisex Protective Vest is designed for skiers looking for reliable back protection during their winter outings. Engineered for skiing, it emphasizes thoughtful ergonomics and a high degree of freedom of movement. Its Flexcell 4D technology and AdvancedSkin ActiveDry fabric combine certified protection with moisture management for a comfortable fit in winter conditions. With its recycled mesh and foldable design, this vest is perfect for both days on the slopes and trips to the resort.

Ergonomic Back Protection for Skiing

This unisex protective vest is designed to provide back protection compliant with CE EN 1621-2 Level 1 certification, tailored to the needs of skiers seeking safety without compromising mobility. Its ergonomic design hugs the upper body to stay in place as you string together turns or change pace. Weighing 660 g, it strikes a balance between protective support and a secure, comfortable fit across the torso. The use of 100% recycled mesh reflects a more sustainable approach, while also enhancing the vest’s breathability during use.

Flexcell 4D technology and AdvancedSkin ActiveDry fabric for comfort in action

At the heart of the Salomon FLEXCELL PRO BLACK Protective Vest, Flexcell 4D technology is designed to support the body’s movements while skiing, combining impact absorption with the flexibility of the protective panels. This technical approach promotes significant freedom of movement, particularly during sharp turns or rapid transitions, while maintaining the level of safety expected from a certified back protector. The AdvancedSkin ActiveDry fabric helps keep the skin drier by facilitating moisture wicking and accelerating the fabric’s drying time, which reduces discomfort caused by sweat under the layers. The combination with breathable mesh creates a more comfortable environment against the back, which is especially useful during long days of skiing in the WINTER collection.

quickLINK™ adjustments and foldable design for practical use

To tailor the vest’s fit to your body type, the quickLINK™ adjustment system allows you to quickly adjust the tightness, stabilizing the back protection while maintaining ease of breathing. This precise adjustment helps prevent unwanted movement of the vest when you’re in action on the slopes. The removable back protector also makes it easier to wash the vest by allowing you to remove the pad before washing, which helps preserve the materials’ performance over time. The foldable design of the back protector, which can be folded for storage, offers a practical benefit when traveling: the vest takes up less space in a bag or suitcase, while remaining ready to use as soon as you arrive at the resort.
