Bauer’s latest women’s shoulder pad is the Vapor X-W. These shoulder pads take a combination of elements from elite level pads, while also having specific features for women to ensure comfort and 100% protection. With the floating sternum shield and THERMO MAX liner, these lightweight pads will have you ready to dive into the action on the ice.
Shoulder Caps & Protection
The shoulders are protected by low-profile anatomically molded caps that allow for a sleek, tight to the body fit. Bauer has also added lightweight HD foam inserts into the arch for further protection.
Sternum Protection
Bauer has used a floating sternum piece with additional extended chest protection to ensure the pads fit comfortably while also providing a high level of protection from heavy blows encountered head on.
Spine Protection
The spine protection comes from segmented HD Foams that create a floating spine guard to increase maneuverability while perforated foams wrap around the ribs minimizing unprotected areas on the upper body.
Bicep Protection
The biceps guards on the Vapor X-W Women’s shoulder pads are made with a combination of one-piece MD Foam and PE inserts ensuring your upper arms are sufficiently protected.
Liner
Bauer’s THERMO MAX liner helps to maintain a lightweight profile while also regulating temperature and wicking away moisture to keep you feeling dry on the ice.
Abdominal Protection Piece
The abdominal pad extension is removable providing you with options on the level of coverage you prefer.

Player Shoulder Pad Sizing
Sizing before Purchase
To fit for a properly sized shoulder pad, you will need a soft tape measurer to measure and record your chest measurement. To do this, find the widest point of your chest (usually just below your armpits) and measure the circumference. Record the measurement in inches and compare to the available sizing charts in each brand. Also compare your height, weight and age to find your best fit.
Sizing after Purchase
Once you have received your new shoulder pad, stand in front of a mirror and strap them on. You will want to check the follow criteria to ensure a proper and protective fit:
- 1. The tips of your shoulder are sitting directly under the middle of the shoulder cap. If you are checking sizing for a child, it is ok for the tips of their shoulder to be under the inner half of the cap.
- This is important because if the shoulder cap does not sit in the correct position, your clavicles, shoulders, and upper arms can become more susceptible to injury. 2. The bicep guards are positioned maximum halfway down the upper arm.
- Adjust the bicep guards using the Velcro straps located underneath the shoulder caps (if applicable). At the highest point, the bicep guards should not be more than halfway down the upper arm. This is important because they can interfere with your elbow pads, throwing off the fit.
If you are checking sizing for a child, it is ok for the tips of their shoulder to be under the inner half of the cap and not directly in line with the middle.
