Maverik M5 EKG Speed Pad

The External Kardiac Guard (EKG) is a specialized protective plate designed to help disperse impact energy away from the chest area. It provides a critical layer of defense against hard impacts without adding significant bulk or weight.

No, the pad is engineered specifically for mobility. Its low-profile design ensures that your arms have a full range of motion, allowing for natural shooting, passing, and defensive movements.

This pad is designed to be significantly less bulky than traditional chest protectors. It offers a streamlined, athletic fit that prioritizes agility and comfort, making it ideal for players who prefer a 'speed-first' feel on the field.

Because this pad is designed to be non-restrictive and lightweight, you should prioritize a snug fit to ensure the EKG guard stays properly positioned. If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing down to prevent the pad from shifting during intense play.

While it is designed for high-level performance and protection, its lightweight, non-restrictive nature makes it a favorite among offensive players and midfielders who need to move quickly. Defensive players who prefer maximum mobility over heavy padding will also find it effective.
