The Aegis Bracer Flex 360 Wrist Guards have the ultimate protection combo; impact and cut resistance. Built with Aramid-Fibers, the Wrist Guard offers complete 360-degree cut protection providing defense against sharp hockey skate blades. With the addition of D3O Foam inserts, slashes and blocked shots taken between the glove and elbow pad are efficiently handled.
The D3O Smart Foam inserts conform and wrap comfortably around the wrist without hindering mobility. While they maintain flexibility in their natural state, D3O Foam reacts incredibly quick by hardening upon receiving hockey-related impacts. Energy is therefore absorbed and dissipated, offering a higher level of wrist protection.
The D3O is also removable so the Aegis Wrist Guard can be washed in between games or practices. Each wrist guard has a Velcro tab to add security to the fit and prevent slippage. They are extremely comfortable, slim, and feel like a second skin, ensuring you have top-level cut and impact protection without sacrificing comfort or performance.
