Farrell Shoulder Pads

[isnipepipe 0]

Does anyone know how he pads perform? I found a pair for 50$ and was wondering how these would hold up? Are they any good? Am I getting a good deal at 50$?

Try the advanced search function, search for "Farrell shoulder", and search only in titles -- you'll find several threads.

You can get to advanced search by clicking on the thing that looks like a gear, to the right of the search bar magnifying glass with the green background.

For $50 yes, matters what kind of shape they are in, but yes, very comfortable, and protective.

I have the H500 and they're great except that they are too short. I have zero stomach protection. If you get Farrell pads, don't play in a checking league or block slap shots.

i like the weight of them. They are very breezy and arent comparable to regular shoulder pads. The shoulder caps are HUGE so i took them off. Overall fairly good shoulder pads

Say, whatever happened to this company? I did a search and another member mentioned that the business kicked out Dan Farrell or something? I also heard that they were bought out, anyone know what happened?

[JR97 2]

From what I understand, they were bought out and basically shelved. A guy I play with was listed on the Farrell website as a dealer and thus gets quite a few people asking where they can pick up a set. He's been working at possibly trying to get them back in production. Either way, for $50 you can't go wrong if you found a set in your size for a niche item like these that are hard to find.

I would buy a size down. I normally wear XL shoulder pads, at least I did with various Bauer and CCM pads. I bought Farrells in XL, and they are HUGE. Wishing I bought L now.

[cooperalls 4]

They definitely run big, I'm a L in CCM shoulders, I'd have bought a M in the Farrell's, and actually almost fit into a S.

Hate to resurrect this bad boy but does anyone know of where we can find a pair of 500 or 600 models? I've been to all the usual suspects but can't find any for sale. Any classifieds or buds on here that wanna give up a pair or two?

I've seen them in the Toronto area - both at Just Hockey and Pro Hockey Life, but I believe they're full price at $159.99 + 13% HST.

Living in Denver so no go unless they sell online. Do they have sites? I suppose I could just google them though.

Thanks. Kyle

http://www.prohockeylife.com/ - They don't ship most products to the US, but Farrell isn't on the do not ship list. http://www.prohockeylife.com/shipping-policy-page-9/language/en

http://www.justhockeytoronto.com/ - you could contact them and ask if they ship to you in the US. They're a member of the Modsquad marketplace.

You could also try Sears - they should ship to you: http://www.sears.ca/...ult/US-41800339

Called Farrell directly and they referred me to pro hockey life so next step is to call them. Thanks for the follow up althoma1 you've been super helpful over the last few weeks.

No problem. It looks like I was wrong about Pro Hockey Life not shipping to the US at all. They don't ship Bauer, CCM, RBK, Mission or Warrior across the border, but they should ship other brands like Farrell: http://www.prohockey...e-9/language/en

I'd probably still look around to see if you can find them cheaper, but if you really want them and money isn't an issue then Pro Hockey Life does seem to have H600's in stock. I like mine, but I'm not sure I'd pay the full $159 + tax and shipping retail price for them.

Spent literally a half hour on google trying to find a is supplier abd can't seem to locate one do I'm gonna watch eBay until I cannot wait any longer. I'll update if something comes up.

As I wrote my last post pulled up eBay on my Iphone and found a pair oh h500 senior mediums. I am 6'3" 240 and wear a large everything usually, would this fit? Only bummer is the guy wants 35.50 to ship a 2lb pair of flexible/compressible shoulder pads, which is crazy.

Let me know guys. Kyle

You're around an inch taller than me and a similar weight. I wear a large H600 and find it fits well. I used to use a medium H500 and worked because the pads are very adjustable with all the velcro, but I prefer the large because it gives just a bit more stomach and bicep coverage than the mediums. The H600s are also a touch lighter and the black obviously won't discolour like the white.

Personally, I'd try to find a pair of black H600s if you can, but if you can get the H600s for under $60 shipped that'd be a decent deal (and you could always resell those if you came across some H600s later). $35 does seem like a lot for shipping if it's within the US. If he's an international seller then that number may make more sense.

I'm 6'3" and about 220 and I felt the large were a little too big for my liking, but I've always liked my shoulder pads on the small side.

It's beer league and just for when I get in front of the net to screen.

Guy lives in NJ and if he has a calculated shipping through eBay it'd be from there to Colorado, which is nuts. Well we will see what happens.

Thanks as always. Kyle

Hit Craig's list Denver. There's a guy in Broomfield with a pair of H500 Medium for sale. If nothing else, it would give you a size reference.

[Kdubya27 0]

eBay has blown up with these. Scored a pair of h500 in adult mediums at $50. We will see

Sounds like you found them, but last time I was in the big Player's Bench location they had some random Farrell Shoulders in a cardboard box way back in the clearance aisle.

Still have yet to make the pilgrimage down there. I am afraid to go with cash because I might leave with a bunch of stuff. I'll update this thread when I get a hold of them. Thanks for everyone's input. I'm thinking off my beer league theyll be exactly what I'm looking for.
