The Mission Elite Relaxed Roller Hockey Girdles provide players with a great level of protection without a big or bulky feel. Like the name says, the Elite girdle has a relaxed compression fit from top to bottom giving players a responsive and minimal feel during the game.
Throughout the Mission Elite Girdle, the protection is provided by the thick medium density hex foam. This hex foam is ideal for roller hockey because games get hot and girdles get uncomfortable without proper ventilation. The hex foam is fully perforated to allow for maximum air flow without sacrificing protection. Also helping to boost comfort is the premier Thermo Max+ Liner that helps to wick away moisture and maintain consistent airflow. The Elite Girdle is designed to work with the Elite Padded Shirt for supreme lightweight protection from top to bottom.

Previous Feedback
Comments: This girdle is very comfortable. I use it to play rec league ice hockey, where breezes are overkill. I can move well in this girdle (with Bauer APXR pants), and it still provides plenty of protection for taking incidental contact (sticks, pucks, etc). Highly recommend!

Comments: I recently purchased this. The tailbone protector took a while to get used to on the bench but for beer league/pick-up roller games, this does the trick. It is comfortable, breathable and provides adequate protection. If you are not a high level pro, this does the job very well.
