Chest protection and pads

I rarely go mtb and usually stick to gravel roads and rail trails. Recently moved and checked out a local reservoir and there were blue and green double track trails around the perimeter so I wanted to go for it.

Going UP a root feature I skipped on the way down I ended up eating a tree stump and bruising all the ribs on my right side.

Im looking for a lightweight chest protecter and maybe some knee pads. Any brands yall recommend or maybe what I should NOT buy?

Note to self, when mtb on my gravel bike... Drop the seat.
