CCM Tacks XR80 Junior Shoulder Pads

CCM Tacks XR80 Junior Shoulder Pads for upper-body coverage

The CCM Tacks XR80 Junior Shoulder Pads are designed to protect key areas of a developing player's upper body while maintaining a relatively streamlined profile.

Dedicated protection around the shoulders, chest, spine, collarbone and biceps creates comprehensive coverage suited to young players facing increasingly fast and physical hockey.

JDP shoulder caps for impact dispersion

The shoulders feature low-profile injected JDP caps with additional foam coverage.

JDP construction is engineered to disperse impact energy away from the shoulder joint, helping manage the forces generated during contact and collisions.

Dual-layer chest construction

The front uses a dual-layer design with PE foam to provide protective coverage across the chest without creating unnecessary bulk.

This structure helps protect the torso from direct impacts while maintaining a low-profile feel around the upper body.

Compression-moulded front and back panels

The front and rear sections incorporate compression-moulded protective panels designed to combine structure, durability and impact protection.

The panels remain positioned around the body as the player skates, handles the puck and moves through contact situations.

Reinforced spine protection

The one-piece rear base panel incorporates a compression-moulded PE plastic spine protector.

This creates dedicated protection through the centre of the back while maintaining the mobility required for active hockey movements.

Collarbone coverage

Dedicated clavicle protection helps bridge the area between the chest and shoulder caps.

This additional coverage reduces exposed space around the upper chest and collarbone region.

Height-adjustable bicep guards

The upper arms are protected by moulded PE bicep caps. Their height can be adjusted to better match the player's arm length.

This adjustment helps create a more consistent transition between the shoulder pads and elbow pads while maintaining arm mobility.

Removable and adjustable belly protection

An EVA foam belly guard extends coverage below the main chest panel and can be adjusted or removed depending on player preference.

This allows the player to fine-tune the overlap between the shoulder pads and hockey pants.

Comfortable sublimated liner

A sublimated polyester comfort liner provides a smooth interior finish and complements the protective foam construction.

The result is a protective setup designed to remain comfortable throughout practices and games.

Secure adjustable fit

Elastic torso straps keep the shoulder pads positioned around the body, while adjustable bicep straps allow additional fit customization.

Correct adjustment is particularly important for developing players because each protective component needs to remain aligned with the area it is designed to cover.

Junior sizing guide

For the correct fit, use the player's chest circumference and height as the primary measurements. The pads should cover the upper body correctly without restricting natural arm movement.

• Junior S: approximately 62–78 cm chest, 127–137 cm player height
• Junior M: approximately 66–82 cm chest, 137–147 cm player height
• Junior L: approximately 70–92 cm chest, 147–157 cm player height

These measurements are guidelines. Player build and proper overlap with elbow pads and hockey pants should also be considered when selecting a size.

Why choose CCM Tacks XR80 Junior Shoulder Pads?

The XR80 uses dedicated protective components for different anatomical areas rather than relying solely on thick padding.

JDP caps manage shoulder impacts, PE components cover the chest and spine, while adjustable bicep guards allow young players to fine-tune upper-arm coverage.

The CCM Tacks XR80 Junior Shoulder Pads therefore offer a balanced combination of upper-body coverage, impact management, adjustable fit and comfort for developing hockey players.
