Frequently Asked Questions

What type of leather is used in the HILASON rodeo safety vest?

The HILASON rodeo safety vest is crafted from full-grain harness leather, the highest quality leather used in equestrian protective gear. Full-grain leather provides superior durability, flexibility, and impact resistance compared to lower grades. This material develops character over time and withstands the demands of repetitive rodeo use and regular conditioning.

How should I measure for the correct size rodeo safety vest?

Measure the vest around the widest point of your chest, just below your armpits, for the chest fit. Then measure just above your hips for the waist fit. The vest should fit snugly but not tight - snug enough to move with your body without shifting during impacts. Refer to the size chart to select the correct size based on your measurements.

Is this rodeo safety vest suitable for bull riding and bronc riding?

Yes, the HILASON rodeo safety vest is specifically engineered for high-impact rodeo disciplines including bull riding, bronc riding, barrel racing, and similar events. The compartmentalized shock-absorbing padding and elongated lower back coverage are designed to protect the areas that experience the most severe impacts during these competitions.

Can I wear this vest with a helmet or face mask?

Yes, the HILASON rodeo safety vest is designed to be compatible with helmets and face masks. It is highly recommended for riders who wear protective headgear during competition. The adjustable shoulder fasteners and vest design allow it to fit securely over shoulder pads and under helmet straps without restricting movement.

Is the HILASON rodeo safety vest hand-made?

Yes, each HILASON rodeo safety vest is hand-crafted one at a time. Since 1995, HILASON has combined traditional craftsmanship with modern protective design to deliver durable, professional-grade vests trusted by riders across 48 states. The hand-construction process ensures quality control and attention to detail in every vest.

How do I care for and maintain the leather rodeo safety vest?

To maintain your full-grain harness leather vest, condition it 2-3 times per season with leather conditioner to preserve flexibility and water resistance. Wipe clean after use with a soft cloth. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and store in a cool, dry location. Do not machine wash - spot clean with mild soap and water when needed.
