Equestrian Body Protectors (coming early 2027)
Price: TBA – pricing will be confirmed closer to launch (early 2027). Not yet available to order.
The ARRO Equestrian Body Protector is being designed to meet Level 3 protection, the highest level for equestrian body protectors worldwide. In true ARRO fashion, we went for the highest safety standard, just as we did with our Snell-certified helmets. Its flexible foam moves with you for natural freedom of movement in the saddle. It's drilled right through for airflow, and its soft outer layer feels comfortable against your body, unlike bulky, stiff body protectors.
New ARRO Level 3 Equestrian Body Protector – Coming Early 2027
ARRO is currently developing our latest Level 3 Equestrian Body Protector, with release planned for early 2027.
Designed by riders, for riders, our new body protector uses advanced impact-absorbing foam to provide a high level of protection while remaining comfortable, flexible and easy to ride in.
Traditional Level 3 body protectors can often feel bulky, rigid and hot. Our focus has been to create something very different — a modern body protector that is being designed to provide Level 3 protection without unnecessarily restricting the rider.

Why Level 3?
Like our helmets, our approach at ARRO is simple: where different recognized levels of protection are available, we aim for the highest applicable level rather than simply meeting the minimum requirement.
That is why our new body protector has been designed for EN 13158:2018 Level 3 certification – the highest protection level within the EN 13158 standard.
EN 13158:2018 – Protection Levels Explained
Level 1 – Lowest level of protection
Designed primarily for licensed jockeys where reduced weight is an important consideration.
Level 2 – Intermediate protection
Provides a higher level of protection than Level 1 and is intended for lower-risk equestrian activities. This level is also used in certain racing disciplines, including National Hunt/hurdle racing in the UK.
Level 3 – Highest level of protection
The highest protection level under EN 13158:2018, designed for higher-risk equestrian activities including general riding, Pony Club and eventing.
ARRO – Designed for Level 3
The new ARRO Body Protector is being designed for independent testing to EN 13158:2018 Level 3 – the highest protection level within the EN 13158 standard.
Level 3 body protectors must meet more demanding impact-performance requirements than Levels 1 and 2, providing a higher level of impact-energy absorption.
Expected Release
Early 2027.

A Game Changer
The ARRO 4-in-1 system is truly a game-changer. I have never found a helmet that adapts so easily to my discipline changes while maintaining elite safety. It is the only gear I trust for every ride.

Restored Confidence
After a serious fall, I was terrified to get back in the saddle. Knowing this helmet meets SNELL E2021 standards gave me the confidence I needed. The carbon fiber shell is light yet feels incredibly solid.

Pro-Level Versatility
I used to carry three different helmets to every show. Now, swapping the visors or adding the chin guard takes only seconds. It is the smartest, most versatile piece of equipment in my professional tack room.

Superior Cooling Tech
Finally, a premium helmet that does not feel like a heavy weight on my head. The airflow is excellent during summer training, and the removable liner makes it so easy to keep everything fresh and clean.

Style Substance
The wide-brim visor is perfect for visibility while jumping, and the sleek design always gets compliments. It is rare to find a product that combines this level of high-end style with ballistic-grade protection.

Elite Protection Only
Cross-country requires maximum protection and zero distractions. The ARRO helmet stays perfectly secure, offers a massive field of vision, and gives me peace of mind knowing I am wearing the safest shell available.
