Overview
The Bauer Vapor APX hockey shoulder pads are the premier shoulder pads in the Vapor line. The APX shoulder pads offer an advanced level of protection while maintaing a great range of motion and a lightweight feel due to the different types of foams Bauer has used.
Bauer has used a combination of foams to achieve a lightweight and very mobile shoulder pad. On the outer portion of the body Bauer used its Vent Armor foam which is a lightweight but dense foam with perforations to allow ventilation. Bauer used a very dense foam called Aero Foam on the outer parts of your chest and upper ribs. The APX shoulder pads also feature Bauer's Vent Armor Composite Foam which is the Vent Armor Foam fused to plastic to provide you with the highest protection in the upper stomach, the chest, shoulder caps and the bicep guards. The extended core protection is removable if not wanted.
The APX shoulder pads have a one-piece front and back panel design but have several segments which allows the pad to wrap well around your body and retain coverage. Bauer has integrated the Free-Flex system into the shoulder caps and bicep guards. This system allows the pads to move within each other providing you with the maximum mobility while maintaining the coverage of the pads.
The APX shoulder pads feature the 3D THERMO-MAX+ liner. This liner has moisture-wicking materials that hep regulate body temperature and prevent the build-up of odors and mildew. A 3-demensional feature has been added to maximize the overall comfort.
