Vicis Arc V1 Skill Shoulder Pads
Best low profile protection for elite skill position football players.
These pads prioritize agility for skill positions without sacrificing the heavy-duty impact protection usually reserved for linemen. The thermoplastic construction feels surprisingly lightweight, though the rigid, locked-in fit means you trade a bit of range-of-motion flexibility for superior AC joint security.
