Thanks Steve for posting the info about it!

You're welcome. Where did you get your V-Sport? I can't seem to find one.

Lesters still has a few left. Call and ask for Dave.

Here is the link to see a good photo of them, in case you didn't see it in the other thread:

The P210 looks exactly like my V-sport, except mine has V-Sport written on it where Champion is on the P210. I paid $80 and have no interest in spending more money on a CP.

Back to the origin of this post. I know the vsport is great. But ask around. Someone has to have this all american.

I have one, wore it 4 times last week. I purchased mine used from another umpire on another board and have used it for the past 4 years. Absolutely awesome chest protector.

However, I have seen the V-sport and tried it on. It may appear the same, but it does not fit the same and it doesn't appear to be constructed nearly as well. JMO.

NEW or USED?

I received an email from Cindy at All American Sports tonight in response for my request for the hard shell All American Chest Protector. She said to call Michael at 1-800-422-2189 and that he has what we are looking for.

Same deal here. I had a V-sport and sold it (it was too long). Couldn't find V-sport any more, bought a Champion. Other than what's written on the front, and the mesh backing, I can't tell a difference, .

Not the same as the All American, to which I posted the number of the guy who has them. Pretty crappy looking Web site, from a designer's point of view. Horrible, actually.
