another pro nine chest protector question

[shipwreck]

What does anyone who owns a pro nine chest protector do to keep the flap that goes under the right shoulder pad in place when you raise your arm? Anytime my arm comes a little forward and up, that flap flops on top of the shoulder pad and stays there when I lower my arm. It then sticks straight out and looks ridiculous. I don't really want to cut it off, but could if that is the only solution. I just tried this chest protector tonight for the first time. Dave

I wear 2 t-shirts when I'm on the plate - one under the chest protector and one over the protector. With the Pro-9, that tends to keep that flap in place.

Steve, do you wear a stretchy tee shirt like Under Armour? I am assuming so since a regular cotton tee shirt wouldn't keep it in place. How much bigger size do you wear on top since the protector is quite bulky? Dave

Dave,
I wear a regular cotton t-shirt, same size as the one I wear under th chest protector. It stretches enough. Sometimes I'll even wear one of the sleeveless ones.

Steve, I normally wear Under Armour type. I just put it over the Pro Nine. It stretched and seems like it would be great. I am kinda suprised a regular cotton t would keep the flap in place. Dave

Seems like an awful lot of trouble to hold a chest protector together.
