Optimum Inferno Rugby Shoulder Pads – Rugby Approved Protective Top for Adults & Kids, Lightweight EVA Padding, Unisex Fit, Breathable Lycra Construction

Quality product,true to size.Removable pads for washing.

Bought for my son. This top has really good padding without being too heavy. Having read all of the “tall skinny boys” of various ages reviews I wasn’t sure what size to get but opted for the small. My sons age is irrelevant but he is 152cm tall,has a 32in chest and is 26cm across the shoulders. The chest and shoulder size is crucial. If the chest is any smaller than 32in then get the mini one to ensure a good fit - better to be tight in the chest and shoulders than really lose. The small fits my son tightly enough but there is some growing room there as per the size guide (small is 32-34). Hopefully that helps others who are not sure about the size. What I can say is that this top appears to be very good quality and the padding is more than adequate. Padding won’t help you boys or girls play better or avoid them getting hurt sometimes but what it does do is give them more confidence to execute a tackle properly and therefore have less chance of being hurt as a result.

Much lighter than I thought , was expecting material to be thicker.Fitted nicely when on and looked good . Protection wise coververd the main areas gave moderate protection. Price point was reasonable. Not winter wear

Purchased for my son who has just started contact rugby. It has given him a lot more confidence to get stuck in. Washes and dried naturally really well. Great fit. Highly recommend

Better protection that the UA one my boy had last yearComfortable to wearHe loves the colours

I really like this product it arrived earlier than expected and was well packagedThe shirt has a good snug fit and doesn't ride up while wearing it.It has 8 removable protection pads which is good if you don't want to wash them, I have removed 2 of thru outer shoulder pads as my shoulders aren't that wide and for me this gives extra comfort while wearing it without feeling overly bulky.The product feels well made and doesn't restrict movement as well as being really light weight and I soon forget I'm wearing it.The colour matches the picture and the product also came with a small breathable bag.

Fits fine very happy

My son is very happy with this - it's comfortable to wear, with great padding. BUT I didn't check the washing label before putting it in the washing machine, and now a lot of the red trim is peeling off. I know this is my error for not checking the label, but really, which genius in the Optimum design department thought it would be a good idea to have to hand wash sweaty under armour after every rugby game and training session? For practicality, surely a 40 degree machine wash should be standard for this kind of kit? Shame, because other than that, it's great armour.

Era para regalar y la verdad que le ha ido perfecto, y llego antes de lo previsto

Einfach klasse! Super verabeitet, waschbar, stabil, unkomplizierte Lieferung. Am besten finde ich, dass man alle Polster herausnehmen kann. Mich störten die äußeren Schulterpolster in der Bewegung, also hab ich sie raus genommen. Passform auch bei mir (w) super (nur natürlich an den Schuleter etwas weit)

La maglietta protettiva è come in foto e come descrizione. Protegge bene le clavicole, il punto che serviva più a me. Il tessuto è bello resistente e adesso che fa freddo trattiene molto bene il calore.

très bonne protection aux bons endroits, les plaques s'enlèvent pour le lavage

Regalata a mio nipote che gioca a rugby, molto bella e di buona fattura. Protezioni adeguate anche se a mio parere (non ne capisco molto) sembrano un po' sottili. La vestibilita delle taglie è giusta.
