ABSTRACT:
The Stealth Chest Guard's size is 5"6/8" by 11"3/8" by 3/8" thick, it is comprised of a rubber pad to absorb the hit from an object such as a ball coming off of a bat or a bounce coming from the ground directed to the heart area. The plastic caplike shape that goes over the rubber is to help distribute the impact away from the heart area and give more support to the rubber pad. the soft terry cloth is worn for comfort and to let the skin breath. The flexablity of the rubber pad and the size of this chest guard was a very important factor. The players in the field need protection ,but they need flexability,and protection without the bulk that comes with other protective gear. The Stealth Chest Guard is light weight ,comfortable ,durable, and provides a protection for the players that is not yet available to them.
