"Great deal on protective gear for my six-foot 9th grader playing rugby for the first time. Bought it for him after he bruised his shoulder in week one doing tackles. He's been wearing it religiously now and says it really helps prevent him from getting hurt. . . . . . . now to get him to wear some kind of headgear. . . ."
— Patrick S. (5/5)
Compra de proyección de hombros y casco

"I like it alot. Good padding, but not bulky. Sizing runs very big. I am 6ft 2 245 and a size M fit well."
— Molly S. (5/5)
"Great product , horrible packaging, box looks very beat up and cheap"
— SP0RT (5/5)
Great Product!
"Great product. Can confirm it does run more on the bigger side for sizing. Helped give me confidence going into contact after a rib injury and can’t believe I didn’t start wearing something like this earlier!"
— T. C. (5/5)
runs big but good padding
"runs big but good padding - I wish the Gilbert green on the sleeves were not there."
— Michele L. (4/5)
Good protection
"Helped give me more confidence when taking/delivering a tackle. Doesn’t prevent me from moving freely on the pitch."
— Devin M. (5/5)
"Great rugby pads"
— Michele (5/5)
Sizing is not accurate
"A small men's jersey was more like a medium-large. The length was fine but the shoulders and width were very baggy."
— Ane L. (2/5)
Body Armour
"Well worth the money, I would just buy one size smaller."
— Carolynn M. (5/5)
Q&A
Is there a chart you can compare size wise to roughly age group. Would YS be comparable to a normal 9-10 years old age division?
Great question and apologies for the delay. YS is roughly a 7-8 yr old. YM is 9-10 yrs. Hope that helps!
