Hard rubber armor

The Hard rubber armor (硬質ゴム製アーマー)^[1] is a piece of equipment introduced in the 2014 Strider.

A protective gear used by the Striders, this armor is made of a hard, durable material^[2], created specifically for combat^[3]. It forms part of the Striders' uniform alongside a wetsuit made of similar materials, formed by a sleeveless tanktop and tights with a "wire grid" pattern^[4]. The full uniform is meant for long-term missions, since its durable enough to withstand them better than uniforms made of cloth.^[2]^[3]

The rubber armor set consists of two pieces: a chest piece and a set of chaps covering the thighs, connected together at the waist by a number of small belts^[4]. The armor was designed to allow for better mobility^[3], being lightweight and flexible enough to not interfere with a Strider's movements while still retaining its durability.

Hiryu wears a dark blue colored armor. Other Striders are known to use a variety of different colors, possibly by choice.
