This guide assists you in finding the shoulder pads that suit you perfectly.
Hockey shoulder pads offer protection not just for the shoulders, but also cover the upper chest, upper arms, back, collarbone, and spine. When engaged in tackling and enduring impacts from the puck, your shoulder pads come into play. Defenders might require thicker padding, whereas attackers often prefer lighter and more compact designs for greater agility.
Hockey Shoulder Pads Sizing
Your body size dictates the required size for your pads. To determine this, measure the circumference of your chest just beneath the armpits.
Different brands have varying sizes. This chart provides an estimated guide based on your measurements and height:
