Vaughn's VX1 Youth leg pads are purpose-built to help growing goalies stay comfortable, confident, and focused on their game.
Build
Pre-shaped w/ Youth-friendly Flex: The VX1 Youth pads make it easy for young goalies to develop their mobility and fundamentals with an ergonomic pre-curved thigh rise and soft, intuitive flex.
Classic Knee Roll Look w/ VX1 Graphics: Vaughn's Velocity pads take the ice with a timeless style, putting goalies in the crease with a classic knee roll face and complete VX1 graphics.
Comfort & Protection
Integrated Knee & Thigh Protection: While older goalies opt for independent knee/thigh guards to protect against off-angle shots, the VX1 Youth leg pads prioritize ease-of-use with integrated knee/thigh guards.
Dual-layer Knee Landing: Soft, dual-layered foams give the VX1 Youth pads a plush, padded landing feel.
Cushioned Calf Landing: For further butterfly comfort, the VX1 Youth pads' calf plates are backed with a dense, comfort padding.
Fit & Strapping
Left/Right Labeling w/ Youth-friendly Strapping: Vaughn's VX1 Youth leg pads make it easy for growing goalies to properly fit their own gear with distinct left/right pad labeling and simple Velcro® strapping.
Bungee Toe Ties w/ Clips: Compared to traditional skate lace toe ties, bungee toe ties allow for a greater range of motion in the goalie's ankle while keeping the pad properly anchored.
Knee-to-Floor Measurement: Without shoes or skates, measure the vertical distance from the floor to the middle of the knee cap. Refer the K-t-F measurement to the chart above to find the goalies' recommended base leg pad size.
Please Note:
*Thigh rise height has not been included as thigh rise is largely player preference. Retail stock pads are typically produced in standard thigh rise heights of +1, +1.5, or +2. K-t-F is primarily used to fit the pad.
