Body protectors for the, ahem, larger chested rider

I've never worn a BP - when I was a child they were an expensive niche product and by the time they got more mainstream I had developed enormous boobs and couldn't ever find one to fit. However, I now have a husband who's been reading riding accident stats and would really prefer me to be wearing one. Does anybody have any recommendations? I have tried a few but they all seem to be designed for somebody with a totally flat chest, and they gape horribly (and, I suspect, uselessly) round the waist while my boobs squidge out of the armholes - it is not a good look!

All suggestions gratefully received! I've thought about an airbag but they're still bloody pricey and I don't actually do anything especially dangerous...

The Airowear range still fits my bf boobs (although I had to get a new one!) and is very versatile.

Failing that the KAM is supposed to be designed for women and is supposed to fit all of them, although it is substantially more expensive (it is supposed to be the bees knees though!).

Heard good reports about race safe?

Thanks both - I'll check all those out. Am amused that the Racesafe one comes in sizes Flat/National Hunt/Point to Point rather than S/M/L!

I've got the Outlyne and I've been pleased with it. I bought it specifically because I was told it was good for a bigger bust!

Race Safe's are great. I do have one, but am not large of norkage, however two friends are (DD & G) and swear by them.

Race safe are comfy!! I can't comment on how they fit if you're larger chested, but I know people who are and love them. I got given height no boobs lol my sister got the boobs!!

The Kan is good but not cheap, will fit over H cup chest easily
