ABSTRACT:
A lightweight sports neck and collarbone protector is provided for sports players, especially for lacrosse or hockey players, comprising a combined bib and upstanding collar to protect the clavicles and throat of the wearer respectively, the bib and collar being connected together along the entire length of their junction so that the collar holds the bib in position and an object such as a hockey stick or skate blade cannot pass between them. Each of the bib and collar includes protective padding and armour members to overlie the clavicles and vulnerable front and side parts of the throat. The padding may be foam padding and the armour members may be stiff plastics sheet material, the padding preferably being moulded from a soft plastics material as an integral member, while the armour members are moulded from a more rigid plastics mateiral, also as an integral unit with a thin flexible connection between the armour members. The padding and armour members may be adhered, stitched or otherwise fixed together against dislocation from an optimum position.
