It was mentioned that the armor shifts while in a crash. Do any of the companies make overpants or regular pants that have an adequate method of keeping the armor in place? Damn the comfort, I can live with a little restriction and heat.

I can see a need for hip and knee protection. The knee pads on my pants cover the front, not the side at all. And there's not much of anything keeping them even facing forward. I feel a little naked still.
