Prioritizing both protection and mobility, the Champion Sports Outside Plastic Shield Pro Chest Protector is ideal for umpires at all levels. This professional-grade model features a Black exterior shield that deflects impact effectively, while the lightweight, breathable padding underneath ensures comfort and agility behind the plate. A soft foam padding with closed-cell mesh cover allows for moisture management, keeping the wearer cool and dry during long games. For additional safety, the chest protector boasts extra-wide side coverage and raised shoulder caps, making it a great choice. Available in 3 sizes: 17"L recommended for ages 16 and up, 15"L recommended for ages 12- 16, and 13"L recommended for ages 9-12. Note: While we've included age ranges for reference, the best way to ensure a proper fit for your chest protector is to take measurements. The ideal position will comfortably cover your collarbone and ribs for maximum protection. So, measure and prioritize a secure fit over age recommendations.
