Need opinions for shoulder pads....

Recommended Posts

I play in a non-contact league, and just play pick up a lot. I bought the Jofa 9700's, but after trying them on with all of my upper body stuff last night, I decided they're just too bulky. I don't need something that big for what I play in.

I have been using a very old pair of cooper shoulder pads that are perfect, but they're falling apart, thus the need for a new pair.

I wanted to go for the Bauer Classic shoulder pads, but no one around here has them in stock, and I want to try them on first. Here they are -

Has anyone tried these? Or does anyone have any recommendations on a good pair of shoulder pads?

Thanks... ;)

Sherwood 5030 pads and DR 1600 pads are nice and lightwieght. They kinda feel like old Coopers once they're broken in. Another thing you can do that a lot of guys around here do, is cut the shoulder cap off.

I use Koho 4420's. I play in a couple of leagues but I hate wearing shoulder pads. These guys are really light weight and low profile. They also have a bit of protection just in case. Easton and Sherwood also make "classic" style shoulder pads if you like them.

The Sherwoods may be a good option for you, as may the Hespeler Vintage series. Both are lightweight and similar to the old Coopers.

I have the SW 5030s and love them. I am not sure I could ever buy another pair of pads when these ones only cost me $25.00. Can't beat the price for a little protection.
