The Bauer Nexus 1000 Elbow Pad uses a multi-segmented bicep construction and an anchor strap across the elbow joint for a secure fit. The thermo-max liner wicks moisture away from the pad which helps keep you dry and playing your best all game long. In addition, the Nexus 1000 features an extended secure closure system that allows you to move freely. Also, this elbow pad offers a lightweight EPP foam plus poly insert forearm guard for superior protection and the covered hard cap design only adds to the level of protection the Nexus 1000 provides.
