Sher-Wood Elbow Pad Sizing Chart

Finding the right size for your hockey elbow pads is crucial for optimal performance and injury prevention. Sherwood, renowned for its commitment to providing top-notch protective gear, offers a variety of elbow pads designed to safeguard players of all skill levels. However, ensuring a proper fit is essential to maximize the effectiveness of these pads.

Why Sizing Matters for Hockey Elbow Pads

Properly sized elbow pads play a vital role in your hockey experience. Here's why:

  • Protection: Well-fitting pads offer optimal coverage for your elbows, shielding them from impacts during falls, collisions, and pucks. Ill-fitted pads, however, may leave gaps, exposing your elbows and increasing the risk of injuries.
  • Comfort: Uncomfortable pads can restrict movement, hinder your ability to perform at your best, and even cause chafing. Properly sized pads, on the other hand, allow for unrestricted movement and provide a comfortable fit throughout the game.
  • Performance: By allowing for a full range of motion and offering optimal protection, the right size elbow pads can enhance your performance on the ice, allowing you to react quickly, shoot with power, and maneuver with agility.
