For 2022, Bauer is rolling out the Vapor Velocity protective series, a Source for Sports exclusive protective line tailored for the agile competitive player at a more affordable price point. The shin guards are equipped with an X-Lite shield cap, Deep Fit Pro Volume knee cap, and Bauer’s sublimated Thermomax liner.
Shin Protection
The Vapor Velocity shin guards stick to the anatomically molded X-Lite Shield cap, as seen in the 2X series. This cap design contours around the leg for a closer fit, giving you better protection, a comfier feel, and a deeper fit. This innovation overall will help keep you nimble on the ice.
Knee Cap & Protection
The Deep Fit Pro Volume knee cap offers an anatomical fit around your knee, so you can be comfortable and protected. The angled design helps keep you aerodynamic while skating, and the deeper fit keeps that feeling as natural and seamless as possible.
Calf Protection
The calves are protected with full coverage MD foam shields that wrap around your entire calf. They are designed for a more comfortable and natural feel while using a tougher strap, so you don’t have to worry about any distractions or discomfort when skating.
Liner
The liner for the Velocity is Bauer’s Thermomax sub liner. Thermomax is amazing at repelling sweat and odour, keeping your pads fresher for longer. The liner will also keep you cool and comfortable while you are in your equipment.
Strapping
The Velocity uses a middle lock strap and calf strap to help keep the shin guard in place while you play.
Sizes
The Bauer Vapor Velocity Junior Hockey Shin Guards are available in 11” and 12” sizes.
