Body Armour

Einhard

This might be somewhat off topic, but I need some form of body armour for my Halloween costume, and from what I can see, Air Soft type stuff fits the bill. Can anyone tell me where I might go about getting it? Thanks.

BTW, I'm going as one of the Borg from Star trek if that's any help....

Not a trekkie but it would appear that MTB/BMX/Motorcross protective gear would suit a lot better than airsoft plate-carriers and the like.

As Lethal suggested; mountain bike/motocross type armor

i really doubt you could find decent looking or cheap armour for a once off borg costume.
military-esc armour sold by an airsoft retailer would be more suited to a colonial marines from aliens costume than the rubber suit of a borg drone unless you plan to modify it oodles.

try some paintball chest pads http://www.store.justpaintball.co.uk/pads-armour/body-chest-armour/proto-chest-protector-t-shirt.html might be what your looking for.
