Although the Bauer Supreme S29 shoulder pads are a great bargain as the third-best pad in the 2019 Supreme lineup, features could certainly be improved upon. Borrowing from the S29's brothers, the Ignite Pro does just this, providing you with supreme protection and comfort that you would get from a higher pricedÃÂ setÃÂ of pads.
The fit, which is low profile, allows for a comfortable partnership between your body and the pad itself. Added in the Ignite Pro is a Vent Armor insert, which is lightweight and highly protective. Blocking shots or taking hits in the corners are a part of the game and Bauer is better preparing you, as Vent Armor helps your body breathe through the pad while providing you an extra lightweight layer of protection.ÃÂ
The biceps see quite the improvement from the S29s. Originally a one-piece molded PE, Bauer added adjustable dual-bicep AMP construction, which is lighter and provides you with more maneuverability. Making that one-handed deke before sniping the goalie top shelf has never felt easier.
THERMO MAX + liner is also included in the Supreme Ignite Pro pads, which better controls bacteria buildup, keeping you protected from excess moisture during game play.
The rest of the construction falls into the S29's excellent features, which include molded shoulder caps, molded HD foam throughout the spine, sternum and arch, as well as floating coverage throughout to keep you moving naturally and comfortably.
