Legion M-80 Youth All Positions Football Shoulder Pads

The Legion M-80 youth shoulder football pads for all positions offer a higher standard of protection from impact while keeping players more comfortable, all at an economical price point. The pads meet the NOCSAE Commotio Cordis Standard- rare in football shoulder pads- giving players and parents additional security through a combination of advanced foam engineering and the addition of the sternum plate. The stiff outer shell is made from custom-blended, injection-molded ABS plastic, which offers stiff resistance to impact and won't lose its shape over time. The molded foam is corrugated to provide proportional impact absorption, meaning more energy is absorbed from bigger hits. This corrugation also serves to cool the pads through convection. The closed-cell foam also resists the absorption of sweat, preventing the pads from getting heavier during play. This also keeps the pads from chafing, and ensures they dry quickly after practice. By limiting moisture retention, the foam helps inhibit bacterial buildup, keeping the pads fresher and extending their lifespan. Front and back ventilation ports promote even more air-flow, keeping players cool and in the game. The soft shoulder cups are made from compression-molded impact foam to offer protection and comfort. The fully articulated joints allow for easy movement, and the premium belt and hardware ensure a long-lasting, secure and comfortable fit.
