Vaughn Ventus SLR3 Junior Chest & Arm Protector

New to 2022 is the SLR3 Junior chest and arm protection from Vaughn. With an emphasis on protection for the butterfly goalie, this chest protector features Aero-spacer mesh sleeves, an extra-large flexible belly flap, cushion air and HD foam padding, and four-point adjustable elbow pads. The SLR3 series is perfect for young butterfly goalies looking to bump up their game to the next level.

External Material
The SLR3 chest pad exterior is made of nylon mesh for excellent durability and flexibility. The strong nylon weave holds the pads together while adding good ventilation all around. An extra-large belly flap was added to the front to increase blocking and protection in that area.

Internal Foams
Vaughn outfitted the SLR3 Junior chest and arm protector with high-end HD foam padding all around, including in the arms, sides, and spine. Cushion air padding was added in the shoulder floaters to create a good buffer for making saves. The sides were given an extension padding to keep the ribs and kidney area safe.

Shoulder Caps
The SLR3 Junior chest pads have an increased surface area in the shoulder floaters across the front for better blocking. The shoulder floaters are also adjustable in their positioning, so young goalies can customize where they want them when they play. The shoulders themselves are light and protective, ideal characteristics for butterfly goalies, who will benefit greatly from the extra height and weight reduction.

Adjustable Arms
The arms of the SLR3 feature four adjustment points in the back by the elbows to tweak their fit, depending on the level of snugness you want. The wrists have straps to fix them to the goalie’s wrist shape as well. Aero-spacer mesh sleeves contribute to good air ventilation and flexibility, and the material additionally makes the sleeves easier to break in. 

Elbow Caps
The SLR3 is equipped with four-point adjustable elbow pads for a snug fit while keeping a good range of motion. The side elbow caps are molded to fit with the no-gap main arm floaters for the same effect.

Back Straps
The velcro dual back strap is new to the SLR series and makes it easier to modify the size of the pads and get them fitted closer. The spine padding has been reinforced with HD foam protection.
