Do you have heart set on the AX1? Because the ax line is meant to be a "classic" fit line so it won't be nearly as narrow as some other products like the bauer apex or easton RS. However an Int 15" will be a lower volume pad compared to a 15" SR. Also I wouldn't pay too much attention to a shop comparing sizes of pads across brands, just follow the sizing chart of warrior. And at your height of 5"9,a 15" pad is the size to go for and 14" would be a mistake. My two cents anyways, hope it helps.
