The Bauer Performance Goalie Chest Protector offers a similar look and feel as the higher end Elite and Elite Pro models.

New features on the 2012 Performance chest protector include square shoulder caps improving mobility and protection. Another new feature is the adjustable arm length giving the goalie a customized fit.

The Performance chest protector is using high quality synthetic leather, durable nylon and mesh materials for excellent breathability on the exterior. Enhanced poly and foams are used throughout the chest protector providing lightweight protection. The Performance chest protector uses a dual shoulder cap setup using molded poly and foam with the inner layer being segmented offering contoured protection on the shoulder. The chest blocks utilize an anatomical design which allows the protection to contour to the body. There is about a 2.5" foam piece that extends for the sides of the chest protector to provide additional rib protection. The ABS protection provides a customizable fit with the chest protector to ensure you are fully protected.

Bauer's using several adjustment features to ensure a snug fit with this chest protector. Elastic strapping around the elbow and forearm secures the plastic elbow caps keeping them in place. In addition to those straps, there is one more leather velcro strap around the wrist with a neoprene-like liner on the inside. Securing the back of the chest protector is an adjustable 1.5" elastic buckle strap to secure the fit. Providing additional adjustment options, Bauer is using a velcro flaps at the top of the chest protector to allow the goalie to adjust how the chest protector rest on the shoulders.

The Bauer Performance chest protector offers very nice protection for goalies looking for lightweight equipment at a considerably lower price.
