Help - Women's Body Protection Gear

Any companies out there making body armor for females on the smaller side?

I just emailed Forcefield with my measurements because their sizing charts weren't very clear so I'll see what they hit me back with.

I'm looking for upper body protection (chest, back, and shoulders only) mainly for dirtbike stuff but also for use on the street. I just bought a Dainese jacket and although it fits really well (amazingly!) I'm not a fan of the shoulder armor and there is no back protection at all. Fox Racing has NOTHING. Alpinestars has this weird "bionic jacket" thing that looks totally uncomfortable and is only purple.

It's been extremely difficult finding gear. I'm a US size 0/2 - Fly Racing 0/2 and Dainese 38/40 fits me. Most motorcycle companies' women's XS is either a size 6 or 8 which is basically useless.

So, can anyone point me to any companies that are producing this kind of stuff either in a small enough size, or a women's specific cut?
