Catchers Chest Protector

When you first picture a catcher, one of the first things that pops into your mind is the chest protector that they wear. Although they look a bit bulky, they are vital for protecting some of the most important body organs in the catcher’s body. With such a small distance in between the hitter and catcher, without a chest protector the catcher leaves themselves vulnerable to extensive damage in the chest and rib areas if hit with a foul ball.

What to look for when buying a Chest Protector

One of the most important things to consider when buying a new chest protector is its weight. Having a light feeling chest protector is extremely important when you are sitting behind the plate on hot summer days. Having too much extra weight can make a catcher feel slower and less efficient on the field. Another important characteristic of the chest protector is how well it fits. Many use a triple back adjustment system so that the gear is nice and snug against the body leaving no areas unprotected.

How to size a Chest Protector

To measure the chest protector length, take a piece of measuring tape and measure from the bottom of your throat to your belly button area. Match the resulting length (in inches) to the nearest model available from the purchasing location.
