I'm a bit confused about the low, medium and high levels of CE approval. I got the Forcefield back protector because it was clear to see that it met a higher level then the Knox ones but as for armour in leathers I haven't noticed anything advertised any differently.
I've got HG leathers and all weather gear. I was told that the hard armour doesn't absorb the impact as well as soft. The fella in the shop showed me by bouncing a very heavy ball on soft and then hard armour. On the soft armour it stopped dead and on the hard it bounced.
