FORCE3 Defender Catcher Chest Protector - 13.5" Junior (Ages 6-9) | Meets NOCSAE

This is our second set purchaed since Christmas. I am impressed wirh the way it can be manipulated to fit my 7 year old son. Cant wait to get him another colorway.

Absolutely awesome quality

Finding gear that fits my 8U little dude has not been easy, but the Force3 Junior sizes have been amazing. Very few high-quality options available in the 6-9 range, and even fewer that mean NOCSAE. The Defender Chest Protector is light weight, fits great, and looks awesome. If I had one critique, I do with the junior size had the same adjustment mechanisms as the Youth and Adult versions. Not real clear why they aren't. It would be much easier for an 8 year old to be able to unclip one clip and slide the gear off rather than pulling the whole thing over his head and messing up the sizing each time. Just added work for the coach. Other than that, its an outstanding piece of kit.

Awesome
