liner improves on the popular M5 liner and is designed to provide great protection without slowing you down.<\/span><\/p><p>Like the M5 liner, the focus of the Shift EKG Speed is the Anaform chest plate that protects your heart and the surrounding area. Since the chest plate is on the outside of the pads, it&#8217;s not as noticeable as others, despite it being pretty large.<\/p><p>Aside from the chest plate, there is some padding for you shoulders and sides, but that&#8217;s pretty much it. This is really a trimmed-down liner that is designed for those who want maximum mobility on the field.<\/p><p>The Quickdry liner is great at wicking away sweat and keeping you dry. This may seem like not a big deal, but having sweat-soaked pads on the field can really slow you down.<\/p><p>Overall, the Maverik Shift EKG Speed Pad liner is very comfortable but still provide great protection. If you are a middie, LSM, or defensemen, these are our top recommendation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column

style=\"font-size: 16px;\">This pad is optimized for mobility but provides more protection than most other liners.<\/span><\/p><p>The focus of the pads is the Anaform chest plate that protects your heart and the surrounding area. One of the great parts about the M5 liners is that the chest plate is on the outside of the pads, meaning it won&#8217;t interfere with how the inside lays on your chest.<\/p><p>There are large openings for your arms, allowing nearly full mobility out on the field. Whether you are shooting, laying checks, or bending over for a groundball, these M5 liners won&#8217;t restrict your movement.<\/p><p>Finally, we found the Quickdry liner to be really effective at wicking away sweat. During my time using these pads, I never felt like my pads were wet or got heavier despite sweating a lot while playing.<\/p><p>Overall, we found the Maverik M5 EKG Speed Pad liners to be extremely comfortable. They were used by many college and high school players throughout the nation for the 2023 season for a good reason.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element

class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The STX Stallion 900 Shoulder Pads are one of the newer pads on this list and one of the best currently available.<\/p><p>What&#8217;s unique about these pads is that they&#8217;re kind of a hybrid between liners and shoulder pads.<\/p><p>They fit like a liner but have a bit of extra protection around the shoulders\u2014making them a great option for those who want protection without sacrificing mobility, like attackmen and offensive middies.<\/p><p>Another thing I really like about them is that the chest plate is very low profile. Whereas other shoulder pads have a big, obtrusive chest plate, the Stallion 900 chest plate is barely noticeable.<\/p><p>Like other <a href=\"https:\/\/laxdrip.com\/stx-lacrosse\">STX<\/a> shoulder pads, the Stallion 900s use an overlapping strap system that keeps the pads locked onto your torso.<\/p><p>Overall, these are a great option for any player that wants a bit of extra protection without getting slowed down by bulky shoulder and bicep pads.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50

style=\"font-size: 16px;\">This was the first ND200-certified pad on the market all the way back in 2019, and it has more than proved its staying power.<\/span><\/p><p>The Max EKG Liner features the External Kardiac Guard\u2014a reinforced plate over the vulnerable center sternum area meant to mitigate the risk of Commotio Cordis from impact. The add-on is lightweight and does not restrict movement to the rest of the pad.<\/p><p>Anaform plates at the front and back, along notably vulnerable areas, provide protection you can trust that will keep you on the field at full strength.<\/p><p>But, this being the \u201cOG\u201d also means it may be a generation behind the compliant tech currently hitting the market. The main functional knock on the Max EKG is the width of the shoulder strap. Some players have noted that this element can be intrusive to an extended windup on an overhand shot.<\/p><p>Otherwise, the sleek design to this liner makes it a perfect option for D poles who do not

class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The STX Cell VI shoulder pads have a significantly upgraded design from their predecessor, Cell V. They offer a sewn-in heart guard using <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.d3o.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">D3O <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and CURV technology. I felt the difference immediately when I took a hard shoulder check during the game. The pads absorbed the hit without shifting or digging into my chest.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, the floating sternum pad effectively disperses force without adding bulk. STX has also improved its strap system, making the fit much better than its predecessor.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although the heart guard placement felt slightly limiting, I liked the maximum protection. If you feel uncomfortable, wear a size up for a better fit. STX cell VI is available in five different sizes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, despite the full coverage design, they offer a premium level of flexibility. It&#8217;s better than the exoskeleton design of Maverik M6. The stretch zones and adjustable shoulder caps allow effortless sprints, cuts, and unrestrictive turns when dodging through traffic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides, I loved the comfortable design of STX Cell VI. The material is durable as well as breathable. The aerated design circulated body heat well, and the inside mesh layer absorbed sweat even at 32\u00b0C.

when it comes to the technology in their protective gear.<\/p><p>The Cell 5 Liner places an emphasis on mobility with the GeoFlex II tech and 7-point stretch zones. <span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">These, along with the fewer pads compared to the shoulder pads, provide the ultimate range of motion while on the field.<\/span><\/p><p>On the downside, the chest plate (which is required to meet the NOCSAE ND200 standard) sits on the inside of the pads, preventing them from lying flush with your chest. While this isn&#8217;t a huge deal, they aren&#8217;t as comfortable as the M5 liners, in our opinion.<\/p><p>Overall, the STX Cell 5 Liner is an amazing option for anyone who wants maximum mobility on the field that don&#8217;t mind having less protection.\u00a0<\/p><p>I expect these to continue to be a favorite of middies, LSMs, and defensemen around the nation for the 2023

It has a good balance between flexibility, protection, and comfort, especially for midfielders who need a better combination of mobility and defense.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Hex Pro technology keeps them lightweight, allowing easy movement during shots and dodges. The foam adapted well to the shape of my torso, letting me move freely without compromising comfort. The adjustable buckle system ensured a secure fit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides, I liked the breathability of these pads. I didn&#8217;t feel weighed down by sweat and stayed cool running up and down the field. Even after a few hours on the field, they felt comfortable and didn&#8217;t restrict my movement when I was making cuts or fighting for ground balls.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, the ND200 level of protection is great for midfielders, but I did find that in high-impact situations, like when I am going up for a big check, it doesn&#8217;t provide as much coverage as some of the bulkier pads out there.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thus, attackers who take many hits in the chest or shoulders must consider something with more coverage, like the Stallion 1K or the Cell VI.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50

7-point stretch zones.\u00a0<\/p><p>All of these help free up your range of motion as compared to competing shoulder pads\u2014especially the full versions (not liners).<\/p><p>On the downside, the full Cell 5 Shoulder Pads face the same problem that the liners do: they tend to. not sit flat on the chest due to the chest plate being on the inside of the pad.<\/p><p>Overall, the STX Cell 5

400;\">The M6 EKG shoulder pads are one of the best upgrades to the Maverik M series in 2024. Maverik has maintained the quality and design while improving the protection. It has a sturdier external cardiac guard compared to M5 that meets the ND200 standards for commotion cordis.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The thick DuraLight Foam padding absorbed checks well and spread out the force, making me feel secure during powerful hits. I was particularly impressed when scooping ground balls or taking direct checks. It didn&#8217;t feel like the pads were getting in the way.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And even though the padding is thick, it didn&#8217;t leave me sweating through the warmest summer practices. The breathability was impressive, helping me stay cool and dry even after staying on the field for hours.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, after a few months of heavy use, the Velcro started to loosen a bit. It wasn&#8217;t a huge issue, but I did notice it. Despite that, the durability of the pads as a whole is impressive. The padding kept its shape after a year of consistent practice, and the stitching didn&#8217;t come loose.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I also loved the flexibility, as I hardly felt restricted when crouching at lower angles for shooting. Dodging defenders or battling for ground balls felt effortless with the segmented shoulder caps and chest padding.\u00a0 I didn&#8217;t have to adjust them repeatedly, unlike other bulky pads.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element

pads are virtually identical to the M5 liners but include more protection around the shoulders and upper arms.

great features as the liners highlighted above, including the moisture-wicking liner and solid Anaform chest plate.<\/p><p>Though I prefer liners over shoulder pads, I found the full M5 Shoulder Pads

players. However, Nike Vapor LT lacrosse shoulder pads allow all movements without pinching the abdomen or limiting the stretch. I got maximum freedom of movement.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The chest guard also meets the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/nocsae.org\/standard-test-method-and-performance-specification-used-in-evaluating-the-performance-characteristics-of-protectors-for-commotio-cordis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ND200 standards<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. I took some of the strongest shoulder-to-shoulder hits and only felt 30% of the impact. The soft padding cushioned the blow, keeping me safe from rib injuries and shoulder strains. Hence, the design doesn&#8217;t compromise protection while allowing me free movement.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The only thing about these pads that could have been improved is weight. These are slightly heavier than I expected, but I got used to the feel later with the regular use. Hence, I recommend lighter pads for players looking for maximum speed and comfort.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides, the inside lining is exceptionally breathable. It always kept me sweat-free despite constant use during the most intense drills and hot weather routines. The ventilation system kept sweat from building up, and I didn&#8217;t feel overheated.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Furthermore, the shoulder straps are fully adjustable, which is great for a snug fit. I didn&#8217;t have to worry about the pads shifting around or causing discomfort during movement.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div

The connecting elements have a tendency to loosen or even fall off completely after a short time.<\/p><p>Hopefully, this is a problem <a href=\"https:\/\/laxdrip.com\/nike-lacrosse\">Nike<\/a> will sort out going forward because the Vapor seems like a great candidate for those players looking for a pad that can make it on the grass and concrete.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-f98ba50\" data-id=\"f98ba50\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-082adbc elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"082adbc\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><b>Pros<\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-857c54e elementor-icon-list--layout-traditional elementor-list-item-link-full_width elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-list\" data-id=\"857c54e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-list.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"elementor-icon-list-items\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"far fa-thumbs-up\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Emphasis on lightweight and mobility<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"far fa-thumbs-up\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Solid upper arm pad fit (translates well to box)<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-400be79 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"400be79\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\"><b>Cons<\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-28e0a7d elementor-icon-list--layout-traditional elementor-list-item-link-full_width elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-list\" data-id=\"28e0a7d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-list.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"elementor-icon-list-items\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"far fa-thumbs-down\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Dependence on Velcro strapping<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"far fa-thumbs-down\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Questionable back protection<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ea0d347 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-global elementor-global-1148 elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"ea0d347\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e08cb69 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e08cb69\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" id=\"beginner-youth\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2><strong>Best Beginner &amp; Youth Lacrosse Shoulder Pads<\/strong><\/h2><p>As with all things lax, there is a noted difference in gear between adult and youth sizes.

youth shoulder pad in late 2022.\u00a0<\/p><p>The new version improves on the older model by offering a new 5-point deflection system designed to make sure you don&#8217;t take shots straight on to the chest and more mobility.<\/p><p>This scaled-down version of the Max EKG boasts much of the same tech and protection as its adult counterpart. The EKG center pad carries over to bring this piece up to the ND200 standard.<\/p><p>Anaform plating wraps from front to back providing extra peace of mind to the wearer at the ribs and spine.\u00a0The bicep pads are also removable, allowing you to add some extra mobility in exchange for a bit less protection.<\/p><p>The main knock is also a carry over from the adult sizing\u2014the

their flagship Stallion 200 pads a facelift and it\u2019s more than just adding a plus sign to the end.<\/span><\/p><p>The Stallion 200+ is the most affordable youth shoulder pad on the market, built upon the trusted framework of the 200. Hard plastic shoulder caps and extended coverage along the back with added chest protection optimize security in key impact zones.<\/p><p>A widened neck opening provides mobility around your helmet and the arm elements, like every other youth option, are detachable to give you some customization options.<\/p><p>The main rubs for the Stallion 200+ are a lack of user feedback specific to this iteration of the 200, so durability and specific issues have not come to light yet if there are any. You should also keep in mind that this is built upon a retail shoulder pad so it does lack some of the quality of its higher end counterparts.<\/p><p>Ultimately, the Stallion 200+ is a great option for those who trust <a href=\"https:\/\/laxdrip.com\/stx-lacrosse\">STX<\/a> and the familiar Stallion 200 line and value affordability because, before long, you\u2019re gonna be sizing these bad boys

class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 id=\"full-shoulder-pads-vs-liners\">Full Lacrosse Shoulder Pads vs. Liners<\/h2><p>We want to dive a bit more into the differences between liners and full pads so you can determine which is best for you. I imagine this question popped up for those newer to the sport as they went through the list above.<\/p><h3>Liners<\/h3><p>We\u2019ll start with liners. Liners are scaled back versions of full shoulder pads. In comparison, a liner lacks the shoulder capping and upper arm attachments that make their full counterparts a bit more hefty but a lot more protective around the shoulder and arms.<\/p><p>You\u2019ll notice many liners appear to just be the central component of a larger full pad model, and that\u2019s because THAT is exactly what they are.<\/p><p>Liners provide necessary coverage to vital regions around your chest and back that tend to be in harm&#8217;s way across the board.<\/p><p>Liners are a great option of defensemen as they really do not require the added clunkiness of shoulder caps and upper arm pads. Middies may also look to liners over pads as they tend to be less intrusive to play overall and much lighter\/more streamlined in comparison.<\/p><p>If you are purchasing pads for a youth player, we advise not purchasing a liner. The lack of true physical control in the youth game makes full pads a much safer option for your young laxer, and also gives them the flexibility to explore every field position safely as they grow into the game.<\/p><h3>Shoulder Pads<\/h3><p>Moving onto full shoulder pads. Full models tend to provide more customizable options for coverage based on your preference\/style of play. Many full shoulder pads provide detachable pads at the upper arm and shoulder that can be stripped away as you grow more comfortable on the field or move primarily into a position where such coverage is not a priority.<\/p><p>Full pads are the best option for attacking players, especially those primary attackmen around the cage. Wayward checks from poles and desperate middies have a tendency to not land where intended, so the extra padding along the shoulders and arms will be very much appreciated.<\/p><p>Full pads may also be a great option for newer middies who may be trying to get comfortable in the position. The added protection they provide will give you confidence diving in for ground balls until you\u2019re ready to yank away the extra padding.<\/p><h2 id=\"nocsae\">Finding Shoulder Pads That Meet the NOCSAE ND200 Standard<\/h2><p>In an important move for player safety, US Lacrosse is requiring all shoulder pads and liners to meet NOCSAE ND200 standards at all levels of the sport beginning in 2022. This standard is not a design change but solely a measurement of protection in the effort to reduce impact forces that heighten the risk of commotio cordis (cardiac arrest due to a blow to the heart area).<\/p><p>ND200 compliant products are certified by the Safety Equipment Institute and should include the NOCSAE Lacrosse label on the tag. You should also look for this label on the packaging of any shoulder pad or liner you purchase.<\/p><p>Beginning on January 1, 2022, if your shoulder pads do not meet the ND200 standard and bear the tagging to indicate compliance, you will not be allowed to take the field. So, if you\u2019re planning to take the field in ten months plus change, you may want to start upgrading your shoulder pads now.<\/p><h2 id=\"buying-guide\">Lacrosse Shoulder Pad Buying Guide<\/h2><p>With the changing lacrosse shoulder pad safety standard, manufacturers are still playing catchup to increase the number of options that meet the 2022 rule change. Over the next year, we expect a lot of new shoulder pads to hit the market.<\/p><p>While we will keep this guide updated as new shoulder pads come out, here are some things you should look for if you want to figure out how good a pair is on your own.<\/p><h3>1) Protection<\/h3><p>It goes without saying, protection is why you buy lacrosse shoulder pads. You want to navigate every facet of the game with the peace of mind that you are protected, whether it be your ribs, shoulders or chest.<\/p><p>This isn\u2019t football, so why do we need shoulder pads you may be asking? Well, if you\u2019ve ever taken a 50\/50 ball on the ground, you\u2019ve no doubt heard the clash of shoulder pads that comes with it.<\/p><p>Beyond man on man contact, if you\u2019ve ever been caught between the net and a shot happy attackman, you know the importance of cushioning to withstand the potential blow of a wayward shot.<\/p><p>Conversely, you\u2019ll be thanking your lucky stars for the protection as a short stick that is the unenviable recipient of long pole slash to the shoulder blade.<\/p><h3>2) Comfort &amp; Flexibility<\/h3><p>Always number two on our lists but never in our hearts, comfort and flexibility are hugely important things to consider second to protection. There is nothing worse than a clunky set of pads to weigh you down on the field that don\u2019t even fit right.<\/p><p>You should keep an eye out for things like anaform plating and foam cushioning at areas more prone to intense shifting, such as around your arms and ribs. Padding that matches your movement rather than constricting it is key.<\/p><p>The shoulder joint is another key area to keep an eye on\u2014at least one of the pads on our list had a noted rigidity around the shoulder that was intrusive to overhand shots. This is something to keep in mind depending upon the type of play you normally find yourself in.<\/p><p>Lastly, customizability goes hand in hand with comfort. Look for pads that provide secure detachable options and plenty of tightening points at key tether areas, such as your waist and chest, to ensure a secure fit. There\u2019s nothing worse than loose pads playing the bongos on your chest while you\u2019re sprinting down the field.<\/p><h3>3) Durability<\/h3><p>It goes without saying that you want your money\u2019s worth when you invest in shoulder pads, so durability is key to longevity. You\u2019re already splurging to keep up with safety standards so better to go all in on a product that will last.<\/p><p>The primary marker of durability is of course the product itself. Just visually analyzing a pad can pinpoint some key vulnerabilities such as faulty Velcro work or overexposure of seams. As a rule of thumb, clasps tend to be better than Velcro, and less stitching is always best.<\/p><p>Keep an eye on the detachable elements as well. Connecting points on full pads have a tendency to be less than secure as users drag on, so do your due diligence and see what other users say about the product.<\/p><p>Another good marker is the brand name and price of course. We all know the trusted\/our preferred outfits when it comes to gear, so go with your gut and a company that\u2019s built your trust over the seasons.<\/p><p>Price is the other side of the coin\u2014the more expensive, the better the quality of material and the more durable it should be. Both of these elements are not hard and fast rules but worth keeping in consideration.<\/p><h3>4) Breathability<\/h3><p>There\u2019s nothing worse than shoulder pads turning into a twenty-pound weighted vest halfway through a game cause it\u2019s soaked up your sweat like a sponge.<\/p><p>Look for pads that promote breathability with built-in ventilation to the design that keeps air recycled close to your body and prioritizes coolness and dryness. Moisture wicking fabric liners are also key\u2014anything that moves your sweat without absorbing it.<\/p><p>Others will also thank you for keeping in mind the above cause, like arm pads and gloves, shoulder pads are one of the main culprits of lax funk on and off the field.<\/p><h3>5) Customer Reviews<\/h3><p>Customer reviews are worth major consideration before you splurge on shoulder pads. Keep in mind, there may be a bit of gap in the feedback on ND200 compliant products given they are just making it to the market.<\/p><p>Still, do your due diligence and seek out every website and resource you can for some first hand input on how any of the above four elements are for a given product. Other users can provide actual feedback to the wear and performance of a shoulder pad.<\/p><p>Additionally, reviews can be helpful in finding out any quirks to a pad\u2019s fit or the buying process. Such feedback can be helpful in avoiding the pitfalls that may have ensnared other customers.<\/p><p>And don\u2019t forget to leave your own review for whatever pad or liner you choose\u2014it\u2019s always good practice to pay it forward.<\/p><h3>6) Budget<\/h3><p>Find something that fits your budget&#8230;this is easier said than done when it comes to an investment like shoulder pads but it\u2019s still worthy of consideration.<\/p><p>With gear such as shoulder pads though, it may be better to stick to as high a price point as you can afford &#8211; such protection isn\u2019t an area where you want to cut corners. Still, if you go with a cheaper option, keep in mind that you may be giving up certain benefits on the field and in the longevity of the product.<\/p><p>Unfortunately, with the upgrade to compliance, sales for shoulder pads may be few and far between. As a silver lining though, pad options that were already compliant in 2020 may still be overstocked given the wash of that season for much of the country, so be on the lookout for some deals as we move closer to Spring.<\/p><h2 id=\"size-chart\">Lacrosse Shoulder Pad Size Chart<\/h2><p>Here\u2019s a general shoulder pad size chart to consider when it comes to finding a pair that best fits you or your young laxer.

I imagine this question popped up for those newer to the sport as they went through the list above.<\/p>\\n<p><b>Liners<\/b><\/p>\\n<p>We\u2019ll start with liners. Liners are scaled back versions of full shoulder pads. In comparison, a liner lacks the shoulder capping and upper arm attachments that make their full counterparts a bit more hefty but a lot more protective around the shoulder and arms.<\/p>\\n<p>You\u2019ll notice many liners appear to just be the central component of a larger full pad model, and that\u2019s because THAT is exactly what they are.<\/p>\\n<p>Liners provide necessary coverage to vital regions around your chest and back that tend to be in harm's way across the board.<\/p>\\n<p>Liners are a great option of defensemen as they really do not require the added clunkiness of shoulder caps and upper arm pads. Middies may also look to liners over pads as they tend to be less intrusive to play overall and much lighter\/more streamlined in comparison.<\/p>\\n<p>If you are purchasing pads for a youth player, we advise not purchasing a liner. The lack of true physical control in the youth game makes full pads a much safer option for your young laxer, and also gives them the flexibility to explore every field position safely as they grow into the game.<\/p>\\n<p><b>Shoulder Pads<\/b><\/p>\\n<p>Moving onto full shoulder pads. Full models tend to provide more customizable options for coverage based on your preference\/style of play. Many full shoulder pads provide detachable pads at the upper arm and shoulder that can be stripped away as you grow more comfortable on the field or move primarily into a position where such coverage is not a priority.<\/p>\\n<p>Full pads are the best option for attacking players, especially those primary attackmen around the cage. Wayward checks from poles and desperate middies have a tendency to not land where intended, so the extra padding along the shoulders and arms will be very much appreciated.<\/p>\\n<p>Full pads may also be a great option for newer middies who may be trying to get comfortable in the position. The added protection they provide will give you confidence diving in for ground balls until you\u2019re ready to yank away the extra padding.<\/p>\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What Shoulder I Look for in Lacrosse Shoulder Pads\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"<p>With the changing lacrosse shoulder pad safety standard, manufacturers are still playing catchup to increase the number of options that meet the 2022 rule change.

This standard of equipment became mandatory for field players on January 1, 2022 at all levels of the sport. This meant that countless shoulder pad models became unusable and left many players looking for legal replacement options. To help out, we analyzed the shoulder pads and liners that meet the new NOCSAE standard and found the best options for all levels of play. Table of Contents Best Lacrosse Shoulder Pads As with all lacrosse gear, we scoured the market to find the best of the best when it comes to shoulder pads, looking at factors such as price, protection, mobility, and customer feedback. Most importantly, every pad on this list meets the changing NOCSAE ND200 standard that is now required (started in 2022). All of the options below do meet this standard, helping you make sure you find the best pair of lacrosse shoulder pads or liners that you can use for years to come. Note that \u201cfull shoulder pads\u201d usually have removable upper bicep guards and more shoulder protection whereas liners have no arm protection, smaller pads on the shoulder, and are designed for maximum mobility. Best Lacrosse Shoulder Pads: Maverik Shift EKG Shoulder Pad Liner Maverik Shift EKG Shoulder Pad Maverik M5 EKG Speed Shoulder Pad Liner Nike Vapor Elite Shoulder Pad Liner STX Stallion 900 Shoulder Pads Maverik Max EKG Speed Shoulder Pad Liner STX Cell 5 Shoulder Pad Liner STX Cell 5 Shoulder Pad Maverik M5 EKG Shoulder Pads Nike Vapor Shoulder Pad 1) Maverik Shift EKG Speed Shoulder Pad Liner Drip Level: 5\/5 View on Sportstop Key Details Type: Liner Meets NOCSAE ND200: Yes Key Features: 4-point ball deflection system Quickdry liner wicks away sweat Durastretch Panels improve mobility Anaform chest plate protects heart The new Maverik Shift EKG Speed Pad checks in first on our list of the best lacrosse shoulder pads. This liner improves on the popular M5 liner and is designed to provide great protection without slowing you down. Like the M5 liner, the focus of the Shift EKG Speed is the Anaform chest plate that protects your heart and the surrounding area. Since the chest plate is on the outside of the pads, it&#8217;s not as noticeable as others, despite it being pretty large. Aside from the chest plate, there is some padding for you shoulders and sides, but that&#8217;s pretty much it. This is really a trimmed-down liner that is designed for those who want maximum mobility on the field. The Quickdry liner is great at wicking away sweat and keeping you dry. This may seem like not a big deal, but having sweat-soaked pads on the field can really slow you down. Overall, the Maverik Shift EKG Speed Pad liner is very comfortable but still provide great protection. If you are a middie, LSM, or defensemen, these are our top recommendation. Pros Great mobility Moisture-wicking liner Protective for a liner Very lightweight Cons On the expensive side Anaform chest plate is pretty big 2) Maverik Shift EKG Speed Shoulder Pad Drip Level: 5\/5 View on Sportstop Key Details Type: Liner Meets NOCSAE ND200: Yes Key Features: Extra shoulder &amp; bicep protection compared to liner 4-point deflection system Quickdry liner wicks away sweat Anaform chest plate protects heart If you prefer full shoulder pads\u2014including more shoulder and bicep protection\u2014then the Maverik Shift EKG Shoulder Pads are a great option. They have all of the same features as the Shift EKG Speed Pads with extra padding on the shoulders and removable bicep pads. Like the Speed version, the full Shift EKG Shoulder Pads feature a moisture-wicking liner to keep you dry and a protective Anaform chest plate designed to keep your heart safe on the field. If you are an attackman or middie that takes a lot of checks and wants more protection than a liner offers, we recommend going with the Maverik Shift EKG Shoulder Pads. They provide solid protection and excellent mobility for a full shoulder pad. Pros Provide great shoulder &#038; bicep protection Heart protection without too much bulk Moisture-wicking liner Cons On the expensive side Extra padding reduces mobility 3) Maverik M5 EKG Speed Shoulder Pad Liner Drip Level: 5\/5 View on Battle Lax Key Details Type: Liner Meets NOCSAE ND200: Yes Key Features: Quickdry liner wicks away sweat Durastretch Panels improve mobility Anaform chest plate protects heart The Maverik M5 EKG Speed Pad is a bit older than the new Shift line but is still an awesome option for those who prefer a liner.\u00a0This pad is optimized for mobility but provides more protection than most other liners. The focus of the pads is the Anaform chest plate that protects your heart and the surrounding area. One of the great parts about the M5 liners is that the chest plate is on the outside of the pads, meaning it won&#8217;t interfere with how the inside lays on your chest. There are large openings for your arms, allowing nearly full mobility out on the field. Whether you are shooting, laying checks, or bending over for a groundball, these M5 liners won&#8217;t restrict your movement. Finally, we found the Quickdry liner to be really effective at wicking away sweat. During my time using these pads, I never felt like my pads were wet or got heavier despite sweating a lot while playing. Overall, we found the Maverik M5 EKG Speed Pad liners to be extremely comfortable. They were used by many college and high school players throughout the nation for the 2023 season for a good reason.
