Ice Hockey and Roller Hockey Shoulder Pad Size Chart

Place the tape measure at chest height and measure the chest circumference at the widest point. Then compare it with your height. Use the table to choose Bambini, Junior, Intermediate or Senior. Ice hockey shoulder pads should fit closely and athletically without restricting breathing, mobility or stick handling. Bauer shoulder pads, CCM shoulder pads and Warrior shoulder pads fit differently depending on the series, so you should always check the relevant size chart.

Intermediate M is intended for players in the transition between Junior and Senior who are still somewhat more compactly built. Intermediate L is suitable for taller and generally stronger players in the same transitional group. The difference lies in the chest circumference, length and volume of the ice hockey shoulder pads. This allows the shoulder caps, chest protector and back panel to fit the body more neatly and provide better protection during training and matches.

Ice hockey shoulder pads generally use multiple layers of EVA or PE foam to absorb impacts, as well as hard plastic inserts to stabilise the collarbone, sternum and shoulders. Segmented chest panels and breathable mesh zones improve mobility and comfort. High-quality Bauer shoulder pads, CCM shoulder pads and Warrior shoulder pads combine protection, ventilation and mobility for recreational and ambitious players.

Ice hockey shoulder pads should fit close to the body. The shoulder caps must sit centrally on the shoulder joints. The chest and ribs should be properly covered without the protective equipment riding up when skating, passing or shooting. When trying them on, you should test typical movements so that Bauer, CCM or Warrior shoulder pads fit securely and comfortably in use.

Bauer, CCM and Warrior offer ice hockey shoulder pads in Youth, Junior, Intermediate and Senior sizes. Bauer often has very detailed size gradations, CCM relies heavily on height, and Warrior uses chest circumference and height. Depending on the series, the models may have a narrower, more anatomical or somewhat more classic fit. A precise size check prevents a fit that is too tight or too loose.

If you want to buy affordable ice hockey shoulder pads, you should check current offers, sale models and remaining stock. The price is not the only important factor; the correct size, the quality of the cushioning, the stability of the shoulder caps and the ventilation are also important. At Hockeyzentrale and Hockeyoffice, you can find a wide selection of Bauer shoulder pads, CCM shoulder pads and Warrior shoulder pads for training, recreational hockey and professional ice hockey.
