The padding is great for this chest protector. It is the same as the intermediate padding in my opinion. They did n't make it thinner because it was for ages 7- 9. If your kid is going to block with his chest starting a young age it is the way to go. I have an 7 year old turning 8 year old and it is just about right. It is a little big but what can you do it is a range. He is not small or huge but it works. Just need to break it in to have it not float on his shoulders. Also, I have a 12 year old wearing the intermediate chest protector. Quality product and it feels identical along with the look.

5 Nic13
Bought this for my son that catches, he usually never wears an under shirt due to them getting sweaty and sticky but this one doesn ’ t and it ’s breathable. He now wears it all the time

5 Westpitcher
My daughter needed a chest protector for softball 12u. Do to growing/expanding in the chest area I kept having to buy her a new chest plate forms every 2 months( which can get costly) so we decided to give this a try instead. She worn it for 2 seasons now and has been very happy with it. As she grows it continues to form to her to make a perfect fit. I was afraid it 'd be bulky and get in the way since it's a little thicker then the other chest guards but She wears it on the pitching mound and says its not bulky and does n't get in the way and it's comfortable. She has seemed very happy with it so far. I do wish they 'd sell these for ladies too that way she could get a different cut shirt( racerback) but that's minimal and we can work around it.

[ I play baseball in a men's league and I 'm the designated catcher. I 've used several types of chest projectors before but this was my first time trying the Rawlings brand. From someone who wears lots of sporting equipment, I am very happy with this Rawlings Velo chest protector. This particular version is available in two sizes- intermediate and adult. I 'm 5'11 '' and 200lbs and tried the adult size. It fit very nicely around my stomach, chest, arms, shoulders and back. There are two adjustable straps that hook from the lower back to the lower stomach area. The back is also adjustable to fit snug over the upper back and shoulder area. As for the padding, it is placed in the right locations, in my opinion. There is extra thick padding protecting the upper chest down to the stomach, with lighter padding on the sides and upper shoulder area. Being right handed, there is also an adjustable velcro shoulder pad for my throwing arm. I 've taken a few foul balls off my chest and I can confirm that it does its job. Despite the tough padding, the chest protector is very lightweight. It does n't affect my stance or throw in any way. The inside material is also mesh and breathable, which helps keep me cool and dry. I am very pleased with this Rawlings Velo chest protector. It's designed very well, made with quality material, fits nicely, and offers great protection. Rawlings is a very reputable baseball brand and equipment like this shows why.

5 Mk101
[ This is perfect for my daughter's softball team, we have been using it at our practices it fits comfortably not to stiff where we ca n't move and it protects you from the hard blows of the ball which is great, it is true to size and made well,

[ The e product arrived with nice and decent package without any damages. The quality of this chest protector is really surprising me.

I really like this protector, it ’s simply amazing, super impressed!

[ My daughter is a fast pitcher and both my husband and I practice regularly with her. We previously were using old hand me down catchers gear. This chest protector is so much easier to put on and off. It ’s stays in place I don ’ t have to keep adjusting it. When the ball hits the vest the impact is stopped and not felt. Nicely made and great color combo.

We got the adult Battle Defender shoulder pads for my 16- year- old son heading into his junior year of high school. He plays running back and occasionally linebacker, and these have been a game- changer. Right away, the fit stood out — snug, low profile, and super lightweight compared to other brands we 've tried. The protection is solid without feeling bulky, and the sternum and rib coverage gives me confidence he's well protected. He mentioned it feels like he's not even wearing pads once he ’s on the field — full range of motion, no pinching or shifting. Plus, the look is clean and modern, which matters to a high school athlete. Ventilation has also been great during summer practices. Highly recommend for skill position players who want to stay fast and protected. Worth every penny.

I brought this confidence shirt for my son who plays elite u11 soccer. It took a bit to get him to wear but he know wo n't play a game without it. Over the last two weeks, he has taken hits directly to areas that are protected in the shirt. He took a soccer ball to the chest that would have put him on the ground. After the impact he was able to keep on playing through without a hitch. He also collided with a goalie who had his knee up. The collision hit him right underneath the chest or sternum. This could have caused a major injury. Again, he was barely affected by the impact. Thank you for making this product. I think you need to market it more agressively to youth soccer which is quite physical at the elite level. My son is a striker and take a fair amount of punishment. We were growing quite concerned about him until we got this product. This product is worth every penny and I will buy it again.

I bought this a few weeks ago and so happy I did. My daughter puts I on without any problems and doesn ’ t mind wearing it so it protects her. It is well- made and comfortable.

I brought this confidence shirt for my son who plays elite u11 soccer. It took a bit to get him to wear but he know wo n't play a game without it. Over the last two weeks, he has taken hits directly to areas that are protected in the shirt. He took a soccer ball to the chest that would have put him on the ground. After the impact he was able to keep on playing through without a hitch. He also collided with a goalie who had his knee up. The collision hit him right underneath the chest or sternum. This could have caused a major injury. Again, he was barely affected by the impact. Thank you for making this product. I think you need to market it more agressively to youth soccer which is quite physical at the elite level. My son is a striker and take a fair amount of punishment. We were growing quite concerned about him until we got this product. This product is worth every penny and I will buy it again.

When a three- year- old daughter rides a balance car, she may hit the sternum. This �Hex Sternum Shirt offers great chest protection and I really like it.
