The Shock Doctor Women's Ultra Compression Neck Guard Shirt features BNQ & CE certified cut-resistant aramid fibers to give laceration protection around the neck. It has a soft knit lining, durable outer materials, and an easy Velcro closure for added comfort, compression and protection.
Down low, players benefit from several features that keep them comfortable and performing at their top level. Shock Doctor's SleeveLock System is an integrated elbow pad retention wrap within the sleeve that folds back over your elbow pad. This locks and holds your elbow pad in place from puck drop to the final buzzer. Additionally, the elbow portion of the sleeve is loaded with a silicone grip to further keep the elbow pad locked into place.
Built with a compression fit, it features a Bio-Shape design that matches your body's natural curve and shape, providing superior comfort and performance. Lastly, strategic mesh venting increases heat release without restricting comfort or movement.

Specifications
| KEY TECHNOLOGIES | |
|---|---|
| Cut-Resistant Neck Guard Strategic cut protection to the neck area significantly reduces the risk of direct laceration injuries. Does NOT protect against impacts. | |
| Flatlock Seams Two pieces of fabric are sewn directly together rather than on top of each other. This design reduces bulk and prevents chaffing. | |
| Raglan Sleeves Is one continuous piece of fabric that extends from the underarm to the collar, rather than ending at the shoulder. This style provides better freedom of movement, additional space when wearing other layers, and accommodates a variety of different body shapes and sizes. | |
| SleeveLock System Integrated into the end of the sleeve is a special retention wrap that folds back over your elbow pad, locking and holding your pad in place all game long. |
