1. A wearable protection device comprising at least one inflatable member suitable for moving between a rest configuration in a deflated status and an active configuration in an inflated status, the at least one inflatable member comprising at least two elongated portions which depart from a connecting body;
the at least two elongated portions being designed to be positioned adjacent to one another and being in fluid communication with the connecting body;
characterized in that parts of said at least two elongated portions are enwrapped by at least one constraint which is designed to limit the expansion of said at least two elongated portions when the inflatable member moves in the active configuration;
wherein said at least one constraint consists of a casing acting as a partial cover for said at least two elongated portions, the casing being provided with partition walls configured to define inside the casing internal chambers, each internal chamber housing one of said at least two elongated portions.
