The CCM Extreme Flex 6.9 Chest Protector boasts an all-new AER-TEC Ventilation System for the back and spine, which is built of perforated foams and highly durable mesh. This system works by absorbing and evaporating moisture which then regulates body temperature so goalies remain cool under pressure and can stay focused on making the right play.
A mix of high-density, low-density, and compression-molded high-density foams throughout the chest protector offers solid impact protection for any incoming shot. It is designed with CCM's Max Flex Fit, which are strategic flex zones in the shoulders, elbow, arms and belly. This allows every single piece of the chest protector to move flawlessly so the goalie who relies on their flexibility can achieve maximum range of motion.
If that wasn't enough, the 6.9 Chest Protector has plenty of quick-releasing Velcro systems throughout the protection, giving goalies a ton of ways to customize their fit and coverage. When everything is said and done, the 6.9 will have you moving faster and reacting quicker from puck drop to the final buzzer.
