- True's 2026 generation 7X Catalyst pads debut with a stiffer combination of a no-break core with a single break outer. Between their stiffer construction and more accessible price-point, these pads make an excellent option for goalies looking to upgrade from their starter pads.
Construction- No-Break Core w/ Single Break Outer Roll: A stiff no-break core, in combination with a thinned profile, puts down a rigid 5-hole while their single break outer roll allows a bit more flex in the thighs.
- Traditional, Knee Roll Face: Evolving from True/Lefevre's Catalyst pad lineup, the Catalyst 7X6 pads take the ice with a classic knee roll face, comprised of dense foams that give the pads a wider range of rebound response.
Knee Cradle & Leg Channel- Recessed Knee Cradle: A flush, recessed knee cradle not only offers space for a wide variety of independent knee guards, but allows the pads to rotate more freely from the knees.
- Fast Rotation System Calf Strapping: True's FRS strapping refers to a plush inner calf wrapping with easily-adjustable tension at the top and bottom of the calves. In practice, True's FRS strapping allows goalies to fine-tune how their pads rotate and control from the calves.
Boot & Toe Box- Mid-stiff Boot Flex: True's mid-stiff boot holds a wide butterfly with wide, springy post coverage while allowing some flex in the ankles.
- Centered Toe Bridge w/ Elastic Pro Laces: Elastic toe ties secure the pads while allowing more give compared to skate lace toe ties, improving edge control and greatly reducing lower-body strain.
