Looking for undershirt to help with moving elbows

[justinpryor 5]

Just looking for any help on tight base layer shirt with grip on the elbow and arms. Cant seem to find anything and on my right hand when shooting elbows always move. doesnt seem to matter which elbow I have. 

 

anything online, or store or brand would help alot or if you have thoughts on how you may have solved this. 

 

Thanks

Maybe put a compression arm sleeve over your elbows. Or some sort of Velcro strap.

The Bauer base layer definitely have grip in that area, I assume the other brands do too.

Shock Doctor makes a hockey shirt that has grip material that supposedly helps keep the pads in place when the sleeves are rolled back.

i have an under armour shirt that has this rubbery ridging on the elbow area to help with this.  it feels weird wearing it though so i went back to a regular compression fit shirt

Might depend on your elbow pad design too. What brand/model are you wearing? I changed to using Easton elbow pads for it's way to clamp down and not move around.

I just got the 2xpro and before that the 2spro. both same issue. wearing a med, small way to small, large to big, so fit seems right. 

I also used to have a grey under armor with far more grip on the sleeves but they dont seem to make it any more and the current ones have a lot less its to bad. 

Ill look into shock doctor thanks.

Get the elbow straps adjusted to fit you better.

The Shock Doctor is great, works really well and overall is a great shirt (very breathable and well made).  I had the same issue with elbow pads never staying in place but, after trying a handful of models and sizes I got a pair that fits me great and I no longer need the shirt to help me out (my issue is I have skinny arms, the pads that fit length wise never fit snugly enough until I started sewing the straps to be shorter to give me a more snug fit, also I just found a style that fits my arms well which happened to be a traditional one piece JDP cap style instead of the 3 piece floating style I used to prefer).

You can wrap the sleeve over your pads. Most shirts allow you to do this much like the SD.

appreciate the thoughts and product to try. ordered a shock doctor and will try the folded over shirt technique as well.

I wear Warrior long sleeved base.  It has rubberized material on the sleeves. My elbows stay put.

Most do not have grip or enough grp on the area that i have seen in stores. Thats why was looking for the suggestions. Did not know shock doctor made a shirt for an example. 

The old under armor used to be much better for this but the new stuff doesn't have the same grip any more. I should have just bought the old shirts and stocked up

I was getting them from Monkey on clearance...they may have discontinued. I didn't think about that.

I use the UA shirt with the grip on the arms. It works really well. The shirt itself is better than anything I have used. Wish I would have bought two.

I'll actually pull up the sleeve on my base layer a bit so that some of the elbow pad forearm portion is direct on skin. It works pretty well.

[Buzz_LightBeer 972]

just leaving this here to ensure you’re using it properly. You roll the shirt over the forearm portion of the pad, not back over the shirt. A few posts made it sound like guys were rolling the shirt over on itself

[Left Wing King 51]

I wear a t shirt underneath and just have elbow pads directly on the skin.
