Gilbert Charger X1.1 Body Armour

Charger X1.1 Body Armour by Gilbert

Take every tackle with confidence in the Gilbert Charger X1.1 Body Armour. Engineered for rugby players who demand reliable protection without compromising speed or mobility, this body armor delivers lightweight impact absorption across the shoulders, chest, biceps, and upper back—helping you stay protected through every phase of play.

Flexible, low-profile padding conforms naturally to your body, allowing unrestricted movement whether you're carrying into contact, making dominant tackles, or competing at the breakdown. The compression-style fit keeps the armor securely in place under your match jersey, eliminating unnecessary bulk while providing consistent coverage where you need it most.

Constructed from breathable, moisture-wicking stretch fabric, the Charger X1.1 helps regulate body temperature by drawing sweat away from the skin, keeping you cool, dry, and comfortable throughout intense training sessions and match-day action. Flatlock seams reduce irritation, while the durable construction is built to withstand the physical demands of rugby season after season.

Whether you're a forward battling in the tight exchanges or a back attacking the gain line, the Gilbert Charger X1.1 Body Armour provides the protection, comfort, and freedom of movement needed to perform at your best.
