Jofa shoulder pads

[heatley15 5]

hey guys, i searched but didnt find anything. im looking for a pair of jofa 9000 or 8000 series shoulder pads in size 5 and was wondering if anyone has some they want to sell or know where i can get some. i have been on ebay looking but have come up with nothing, if i cant find any jofa's i will try for some rbk 8k's.

just fyi, there's no buying or selling outside of the buy/sell/trade forums. you have to reach a certain number of posts before you gain access to it as of now, and the rules may be changing in the near future. just giving you a heads up in case this gets deleted or locked.

[heatley15 5]

well do you know where i can get some?

[JoeyJ0506 192]

best bet would probably be to check eBay often, they come up pretty regularly. The Reebok line is built of Jofa technology though.

i havent seen anything on ebay in awhile, so hopefully someone knows a website or has info. Not a fan of the rbk 9k and dont want to put out 150 bucks for 10k's

the RBK 9K is pretty damn close to the 8000/9000 Jofa series and it is on clearance

[K9 Unit 1]

isn't the 9k lighter too? and believe me the 10k is worth its money :)

[larrivee 3]

9k Is just like the previous gen Jofa, same caps and everything.

I agree with the previous posters. The 9K is about as close your going to get to the 8000/9000 series shoulder pads and they are pretty readily available presently. Have a look at the new 10K's though because Reebok has increased the mobility of their shoulder pads considerably with their newest series of shoulder pads. I bought the new 6K's for my son and he absolutely loves them. He found them much more flexable than his old shoulder pads. He's been wearing Jofa/Reebok religiously since starting hockey so he noticed the difference almost immedialtely.

alright well im going to try for some jofa's for the next little while then if not hopefully my lhs has them on sale because they are still pretty expensive.

You could go down to the 8 or 6K's if the 10's are too expensive and still get very good protection. RBK shoulder pads are consistently great protection right across the board for most levels of hockey.

from what ive seen of this years reebok 6K shoulder pads im very impressed. they look to have all the bells and whistles of the 10k minus a grip liner i do believe, with a more low profile, stream lined protection. if i were to ever jump back into playing full i contact i would pick up the 6k's for sure, and from pee wee all the way up to jr b ive used jofa shoulder pads

For a company that just jumped into the hockey game a few years ago, reebok makes an incredible product. I use their gloves and helmet

[warrior37 0]

well reebok product isnt anything new, its pretty much all jofa/ccm/koho technology and product with a reebok logo on it

[Krev 86]

Reebok = Jofa.

You're buying a rebranded, updated, Jofa product. Pretty simple.

I love my Jofa shoulders but they are getting raunchy. This is very practical info. I'm gonna pick up some 9Ks then. Thanks.

Happy I could help!

I've got a shot at buying some pro 8700 shoulders and wanted comments from users on performance. Thanks.

If they fit snag'em. There my personal favorit model of shoulder pads. I actually just got a pair of Pro 6700's today (same thing but older graphics black and orange not the navy).

[coldshoulder 0]

Thanks A2r, They're new in the bag. I'll let you know what happens.

[coldshoulder 0]

Picked up the 8700s on Fri, wore then to practice and game yesterday.

Seems lighter w/more mobility than my 10ks. Protection seems about the same, we'll see.

For Los Angeles and SOCAL, was just at Jake's Custom Pro Shop in El Segundo and they have what looked like 15 pairs of new Jofa shoulders. Saw 8700, 700 and 5500....nice selection

Just bought a slightly used pair of pro stock SR Large 8700 Jofa shoulder pads off of ebay for 8 bucks. There were two pairs of larges left, both sold now, and one XL left (http://cgi.ebay.com/NHL-Pro-Stock-Jofa-RBK-6K-Hockey-Shoulder-Pads-SR-XL-/270667424935?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f050924a7) if anyone wants a sweet deal on these pads

That last pair is also gone. I couldn't help myself.

[BCheetham93 0]

When they come in I'll make a seperate thread for a review or something. I've been dieing to get some Jofa protective. Now I just need elbows and shins haha.

Charles, do you think they look beat up? I know they're "used", but they certainly aren't trash
