Hyper Hypertection/Tour Upper Body Protector

[Thockey17 1]

Does anyone use either of these? Im considering trying them out, because shoulderpads are not required in my leagues/tournaments but my parents think im going to get hurt. My main concern with them is how much of my upperbody they would protect, and how protective they are? Would i be better off going with a very minimal should pad(i.e. Sherwood classics)??

They're comfortable, I had the tour one till it mysteriously disappeared. You won't be getting that much more protection from something like sherwood classics, you'll just be getting shoulder caps. It's like wearing a compression shirt i.e. nike dri-fit

I think Mission is coming out with one very soon as well.

We do have one coming out in the next month...Our has a nice stretch lycra along the the seams of the arms and the side gussets. It allows for great flexibility and range of motion...

They are not the most protective items, but better than wearing nothing....

Thats exactly what im looking for. I guess i'll have to try them all on, and see which is most comfortable.

Thanks all.
