The new TRUE XC9 shoulder pads are built for personalization, with an innovative adjustability that offers the comfort and feel you’re looking for in high-end equipment. This new system includes the ability to adjust the clavicle area, shoulder caps, torso, and bicep pads. With these features, finding the right fit goes beyond just general sizing, as you can adjust these shoulder pads almost everywhere based on your protective needs and personal preference. 

The XC9 shoulder pads also feature PE/EVCA shoulder caps for a low-profile design and excellent protection; EVA foam in key areas for shock absorption from common hockey impacts like checks and slashes; and a moisture-wicking liner to help keep the pads dry and lightweight during play.

The new TRUE XC9 elbow pads are optimized for mobility and protection, with a three-piece design that offers more freedom of movement and complete coverage. The XC9 construction is complemented by some key technologies, including molded EVA foam. This popular protective material is strategically placed within the elbow pad to provide enhanced shock absorption, helping to protect against impacts like slashes, blocked shots, or contact with the ice and boards.

TRUE’s  XC9 elbow pads feature an adjustable strapping system, with separate forearm and bicep straps, to lock the pad in place for ultimate comfort and protection. And inside the XC9, a moisture-wicking liner will help keep you dry and cool during your time on the ice.

The new TRUE XC9 shin guards are built for speed, with an anatomical design and lightweight features. Strategically placed straps offer a customized fit, with a wraparound knee strap and a thick, durable calf strap to ensure the XC9 guards will stay locked in place. This enhances the protective features of the guards by prohibiting any excess shifting of the pads, while offering solid freedom of movement to support your stride. And an adjustable liner on the inside of the shin guards allows for cleaning to help keep them fresh throughout the season.
