bros29gladiators 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2013 Looking for shoulder pads that have bigger Caps to go along with mobility. I know everyone is looking at low profile shoulder pads, but I am on the small size and the perception of size wouldn't hurt. Looking at the Reebok 11k and the Vapor apx. Suggestions.

GiancarloSFL 15 Report post Posted January 6, 2013 Look on Ebay under pro stock shoulder pads. Normally pro's use large shoulder caps and they have good mobility. Jofa/reebok i think would be your best bet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greyskull 21 Report post Posted January 6, 2013 Just got a pair of Warrior Projekts and have to say that they have the PERFECT balance of protection and mobility Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krev 86 Report post Posted January 6, 2013 If you can find them, a pair of Easton ST16's are great. Built like a tank, and right between low profile and bulky. Only thing I didn't like was the obnoxious spine protection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thepandamancan 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2013 Can't speak to their mobility yet, but the new Bauer Nexus have huge caps. I'm a small guy too and they made me look huge. They're a bit on the bulky side, but when trying them on in the store they didn't feel that different than any of the known "mobile" models you can buy. The fit is very comfortable too...feels like you're getting a hug from it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beerleaguecaptain 999 Report post Posted January 7, 2013 There are alot of "best shoulder pads" threads on MSH so you can do a search. We ususally get guys on the forum asking for low profile. There are so many good pads on the market. Take a look at the RBK 11K and 9K KFS pads. Nice big caps. Very mobile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AIREAYE 248 Report post Posted January 7, 2013 The Projekts have smaller caps. In addition to the Nexus, Reebok/CCM and ST suggestions, I would see if I can find some EQ50s. The caps are large, but not in the dimensions one would automatically think of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chadd 916 Report post Posted January 7, 2013 It seems like every manufacturer is making really good shoulder pads right now. Go try on a bunch and see what gives you the fit and feel you need, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
