Bauer X Youth Shoulder Pads
Affordable comfort and protection for young players just starting out.
The Bauer X Youth Shoulder Pads are the perfect choice for new or recreational players, offering great coverage and comfort without breaking the bank. Key impact zones like the sternum and spine feature molded HD resin inserts, providing excellent protection against collisions and falls.
Lightweight molded plastic shoulder caps and adjustable bicep guards keep the fit low-profile while still absorbing contact effectively. These areas, along with the torso panels, are layered with medium-density foam for added comfort and safety. The vented foam back panel enhances breathability, promoting consistent airflow during play.
One standout feature is Bauer’s Free Flex Technology, which allows the shoulder caps and biceps to move more naturally with the body thanks to independent nylon strap attachment—a big advantage over stitched alternatives in this price range.
