The Reebok 6K Goalie Chest Protector Jr provide quality protection suitable for up to advanced roller or intermediate ice play.
Reebok has used a heavy duty 420 D nylon along with a mesh material to allow for a quicker drying process. The 6K chest protector uses a floating PE foam panel along with a molded poly cap to protect the shoulder. Reebok has used a high density EVA foam in the chest blocks to provide superb protection of the chest and torso. The 6K also features a removable inner belly foam liner, which allows the goalie to reduce the bulk of the chest protector if they see fit.
The 6K goalie chest protector offers an articulating arm hinge with PE foam to allow the arm to easily bend at the elbow and still be fully protected. Just above and below the articulating arm hinge, Reebok has used a molded poly and PE foam to provide a comfortable feel on the inside of the arm, but a rigid protective surface on the outside. The 6K chest protector has four adjustable elastic straps to lock down the JDP® elbow cap to the elbow. The JDP® elbow cap is a molded plastic shell for the elbow which disperses the impact away from the joint. Reebok has used a simple foam back piece with a plastic spinal guard to protect goalies when they need to make an unconventional save. The 6K chest protector uses dual adjustable elastic buckle straps around the belly to ensure a snug fit and full coverage of the belly and ribs. The Reebok 6K chest protector also uses an adjustable nylon strap over each shoulder to provide a snug fit around the chest and shoulders.
The metallic silver COAG leather gives this chest protector an armour-like look making any goalie ready for the war.
