Rib Protector

[puckhoggy 0]

Hey all,

I've been looking around for a rib prtector that goes underneath the shoulder pads and have had no luck finding them yet.

Does anyone know where to find an item like this? Saw a teammate wearing one and have been interested ever since. And are there certain brands to look for or features to find?

And for those who use them, do u find they aborb or help more with body checks/hits?

thx

You could look for the kind football players (mostly QB's) wear:

When I fractured a couple ribs I wore my Lacrosse pads.

There are some decent options here

the classic flak jacket works great. those shirts with the sewn-in pads are unbelievably tight. i almost had to be cut out of one and i'm skinny dude.
