Buying Guide
Protection Level
Entry-level elbow pads suit recreational players. Mid and pro-level adds harder caps and better mobility for more demanding play.
Mobility vs Coverage
Low-profile elbow pads allow more arm movement. More coverage suits physical players who take a lot of hits.
Fit & Sizing
Senior elbow pad sizing is based on arm length and bicep circumference. The cap should sit directly on the elbow point with straps securing the pad in place.
Player Type
Forwards often prefer lighter, low-profile builds. Defensemen and physical players may opt for more coverage.
Sizing varies by brand but is generally based on arm length and bicep circumference. Always check the size chart on the individual product page. When between sizes, most players prefer to size up for more coverage.
Entry-level pads use foam-based protection and suit recreational players. Mid-level adds harder cap materials and better mobility features. Pro-level uses advanced materials like D3O, offering maximum protection at minimal weight.
Elbow pads should fit snugly without restricting movement. The cap should sit directly on the elbow point — not riding up or sliding down. Adjust the straps so the pad stays in place during play.
A compression shirt or moisture-wicking base layer under your jersey helps keep elbow pads in position, improves comfort and reduces chafing during play.
After each use, air out your elbow pads to prevent odor buildup. Most pads can be wiped down with a damp cloth. Some models have removable foam that can be machine washed — check the label on your specific product.
