Know before you buy
The pin system physically connects the compression sleeve to the arm pad itself. This creates a locked-in connection that prevents the pad from rotating or sliding down your arm during aggressive play.
Not at all. The ANAFORM padding is designed to be low-profile and flexible, prioritizing mobility while still offering the necessary slash protection for your bicep and forearm.
The Maverik Shift Arm Pad is specifically engineered to integrate with the SHIFT LAX SLEEVE. While the pad system relies on this compatibility for its unique no-slip fit, please check your specific package to see if the sleeve is included.
The pads feature integrated ventilation channels throughout the construction, which work alongside the QuickDry fabric to pull moisture away from your skin. This combination keeps you significantly cooler and drier than standard, non-ventilated pads.
Because of the specialized ANAFORM padding and the pin-alignment mechanism, we recommend hand washing these pads with mild detergent and air drying them. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying to maintain the integrity of the compression sleeve and padding structure.
