What people say about deflexion by Dow Corning
 

Companies Leverage
DEFLEXION™ Technology
for Product Design

We know the great things DEFLEXION™ technology does; we’ve tested it. More importantly, so have others. Here’s what they have to say about how they've been working with our high performance fabric:

RodeoTech
RodeoTech worked with Dow Corning to design an innovative rodeo vest using the DEFLEXION™ shock absorbing material. “They had this material that we really got very excited about,” said David Pearson, CEO of RodeoTech. “It had the nature of being flexible yet be able to take a hit and return to its natural form. It had a lot of great things going for it so we thought that this would be a perfect market for that material.”

Rodeo riders agree with the results. “Most other vests are hard plastic, so you lose a lot of mobility,” says Bobby Welsh, rodeo pro. “With this vest, you can still move in it.”

Another rider has tested the vest under the most intense conditions and speaks to the impact protection DEFLEXION™ products afford.

“I’ve been hooked three times with the vest on,” says J.T. Stevens, professional bull rider. “It absorbed the impact so well I didn’t feel a thing.”
