Overview
The Bauer Vapor Hyperlite Shoulder Pad is engineered from the inside out to give the quick and agile player pro-level protection in a truly featherlight package.
The DNA that makes up the Hyperlite Shoulder pads includes AeroFoam 2.0 Lite, Hyperlite HD Foam, Shocklite Foam, and Exo-Lite Skin. Each of these elite-level materials is extraordinarily lightweight but strategically designed to absorb impact energy. Aerolite 2.0 Foam shoulder caps specifically are ready to take on or dish out a big, heavy hit while giving players the feeling like they don't even have shoulder pads on.
Both the sternum and spine guard feature Bauer's Hyperlite HD Foam with their Shocklite Foam insert. This provides exceptional protection from hard-fought battles along the boards, in front of the net, or direct impacts taken from blocked shots. It's built into a Flexaprene construction which allows the Hyperlite Shoulder pads to sit close to the body for unrestricted range of motion.
Exo-Lite Skin can be found on the bicep guards to give players elite-level impact protection from slashes, cross-checks, or body collisions. The biceps have a sleeve fit design to eliminate unwanted chaffing caused by standard Velcro closures but without sacrificing fit adjustability.
Internally, the all-new Thermo Core Zero liner eliminates odor, wicks sweat away from the skin, and now provides players with a cooling effect.
Specifications
| KEY TECHNOLOGIES | |
|---|---|
| AeroLite 2.0 Bauer's lightest foam to date helps to make this Bauer's lightest protective line! Don't be fooled because it still offers elite-level protection from even the biggest contact which is why it is used in key impact areas. | |
| EXO-Lite Skin This compressed foam helps to reduce weight but is engineered to absorb impact energy for elite-level protection. Water and sweat won't absorb into the material either, ensuring the foam stays featherlight. | |
| ShockLite Foam Providing protection that NHL players trust, ShockLite Foam can absorb big hockey-related impacts. It also barely weighs anything and doesn't need plastic insert reinforcement, ultimately providing a featherlight barrier to impact energy. | |
| Thermo Core Zero Odor and sweat are no match for this premium liner that also gives players a cooling effect for a comfortable gameplay experience. |

Sizing Chart
| GENERAL SHOULDER PAD SIZING GUIDELINES | |
|---|---|
| Measure the circumference of your chest roughly 1" below the armpit using a soft measuring tape, string, or shoelace. Correspond this measurement to the sizing chart and cross-reference your height. Personal preference may come into consideration in case there is an overlap between two shoulder pad sizes. For more coverage, go with the larger size. Choose the smaller size for a lower-profile fit and better responsiveness. | |
| NOTE: If you previously wore a Bauer Junior LG Shoulder Pad, select an Intermediate MD. If you previously wore a Bauer Senior SM Shoulder Pad, select an Intermediate LG. Bauer designed these new Intermediate sizes to better fit the body of players between Junior and Senior sizing. |
