The Bauer Vapor Hyperlite Glove lives up to its name by now being 25% more protective than the 2X Pro while preserving a featherlight design.
Bauer achieved this by building the backhand protection with their premium Defense Cloud Technology Foam and Shocklite Plate. These two features reduce weight while being engineered to absorb heavy impact energy taken from slashes, blocked shots, or battles in front of the net.
Each finger receives triple-density foam coverage for additional elite-level protection with added slash protection in the cuff thanks to Exo Lite foam. Bauer then improved the durability to the palm by 30%, giving players that silky-soft feel for longer than ever before. Junior-sized gloves share the same amazing material as the Intermediate and Senior models but feature an added stretch gusset to help improve dexterity and durability.
Internally, comfort is top-level thanks to the Hyper Sense fingers and new Thermo Core Zero liner. Soft and comfortable, this new liner still handles sweat, moisture, and odor like a boss but now gives players a cooling effect throughout the game which means your hands never lose their feel for the stick.
