Quick answer: The TRUE Catalyst 9X3 goalie pads are premium off-the-shelf senior pads built with Lefevre's pro-stock design. New for 2023, they add a 30% stiffer composite thigh rise, a 40% thinner thigh rise for easier overlap, and a more rigid knee stack — all of which improve the pad's seal to the ice and mobility in the butterfly.
New for 2023, the Catalyst 9X3 Pro Stock Goalie Pads offer Lefevre’s innovative design and manufacturing processes in a premium off-the-shelf package. Inspired by function and crafted by form, goaltenders can expect exceptional fit, comfort, and premium performance benefits that are synonymous with TRUE by Lefevre throughout our Catalyst 9X3 goalie collection.
New Composite Thigh Rise Core
A 30% stiffer thigh rise is combined with a more rigid knee stack, allowing for a better seal to the ice when dropping down and an improved ease of redirecting pucks.
Thinner Thigh Rise
A 40% thinner thigh rise provides ease in pad overlap when standing up or in butterfly. The pads are more reactive when dropping down and popping back up from the ice, giving greater mobility in game situations.
Improved Knee Stack Rigidity
New knee stack construction and improved rigidity provides greater stability. Combined with the stiffer thigh rise, it allows for more pressure on top of the pads in the butterfly, leading to an even better seal to the ice.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is new on the True 9X3 goalie pads for 2023?
The Catalyst 9X3 adds a 30% stiffer composite thigh rise, a 40% thinner thigh rise for easier pad overlap, and a more rigid knee stack construction for greater stability and a better seal to the ice.
Are the True Catalyst 9X3 pads pro stock?
Yes. They bring Lefevre's pro-stock design and manufacturing processes into a premium off-the-shelf package, so you get pro-level fit and performance without a custom order.
Are the True 9X3 pads good for butterfly goalies?
Very much so. The stiffer thigh rise and rigid knee stack let you apply more pressure on top of the pads in the butterfly for a tighter seal, while the thinner thigh rise makes the pads more reactive when dropping down and popping back up.
