New to the Vapor protective family comes the Source for Sports exclusive Vapor Shift Pro collection. This gear is tailored specifically for that high-performance player looking for gear that won’t necessarily break the bank. The gear comes equipped with many features across all levels of Bauer’s new Vapor gear, including Dynaflex lock strappings, an anatomical 3-piece design, and a Thermocore Zero liner.
Bicep & Forearm Protection
Both the bicep and the forearm on the Vapor Shift Pro elbow pads are molded with PE inserts for a competitive level of coverage during your game. The molded feature also makes the pads fit closer while eliminating excess material, so you can move quicker and with more efficiency.
Elbow Cap
The three-piece cap allows for total movement in the arms. As the cap cover is molded for a deeper fit, it can lock your elbow comfortably in place, keeping you both agile and protected. The PU synthetic leather covering helps increase the life of the pads by providing a more waterproof and durable coating.
Strapping System
The Shift Pro elbow pads use Dynaflex strapping, recycled from the 2X Pro line and also seen in the top-of-the-line Hyperlite due to its elite comfort and anchoring abilities. Dynaflex is both tough and soft, which makes it able to give you max protection without sacrificing mobility.
Liner
Bauer implemented their upgraded Thermocore Zero liner in every new Shift Pro protective piece. Thermocore Zero is amazing at wicking away moisture and repelling odour. In addition, this liner has cooling properties, so you can stay nice and refreshed while you play. The comfort liner is also molded and removable for a closer, more custom fit, and also to make the pads easier to clean.
Sizes
The Bauer Vapor Shift Pro Junior Hockey Elbow Pads come in Small and Medium sizes. If you are looking for a larger size, the Shift Pro collection is also available in Senior and Intermediate sizes.

Hockey Elbow Pads Sizing Information
When fitting or trying on elbow pads, there are a few things to look at to make sure you have a proper fit. To start, make sure your elbow is placed in the center of cup or designated area and fasten the elbow pad using the straps. You will want to make sure that elbow pad is snug and secure and will not slip off the elbow joint. As well, move your arms around with each pad on, range of motion is key, and you will feel mobility differences in each product. If the elbow pad is too big it will shift and slide around on your arm. If it is too small your elbow will feel like it is sitting above the pad.
Elbow pad strapping is semi-adjustable, so if you find a pad that you like the feel of on your arm, adjust the straps until it fits securely. If the strapping feels too tight against your arm and you are unable to loosen it further, this is a good sign that you may need a bigger size. As well if you have fully tightened the strapping and the elbow pad is still loose or shifting on your arm, a size down will probably work better.
When looking at different elbow pads, there are a variety of different features to choose from. Some models will be offered in a soft elbow cap (although this is becoming more uncommon) and other will come with a hard plastic shell. As well, strapping systems can change and straps such as anchor straps or lock strap with provide a better lock to the pad than a regular elastic strap. These features are personal preference and usually are dictated by price range as well as brand. Once you have a feel for what you like or dislike you can narrow your choices.
When viewing sizing online, most elbow pads will be offered in Small, Medium and Large. Sizing charts are provided below and on each product to double check where you line up and as well list all the sizes available. These charts are for reference only and personal preference is a factor as well when looking for the best fit.
Compare your height, weight and age to the charts provided to find your best fit. As well, put on your shoulder pad and gloves and have someone measure the space/gap in between (in inches) to determine the proper sizing.
