FAQ
-
Are Propadz shoulder pads suitable for all levels of rugby players?Yes, Propadz shoulder pads are designed for rugby players of all levels, from beginners to professionals. Propadz can provide a level of padding for amateurs that they would normally only get through physio’s and strapping while reducing the need for strapping altogether for professional athletes. They offer comfort, protection, and flexibility for players of any size or ability.

How do I know what size Propadz shoulder pads to purchase?To find your perfect fit, please refer to our measurement chart (linked below). The Adult Chart provides guidelines based on height, chest size, and weight. It's important to measure accurately to ensure the best fit and protection. Propadz work best with a tight fit so the pads are not moving around during games.
-
Can Propadz Shoulder Pads be customized for fit?Yes, our modular panel system allows players to apply pads to specific areas as required, ensuring a customized and snug fit for maximum comfort and protection. Players can pick and choose padding to tailor to a vulnerable area, an old injury, or wear the full set of gel pads.

I have used the pads for a little while now and washed them several times but noticed the gel pads have become quite sticky and can be difficult to put back into the panels?The washing instructions provided with the garment is to wash them at low temperature with the pads inside the panels. They have been tested on a range of machines and are perfectly safe to do so. Please note that when we ship the product, they are powder coated but with wear and tear, weekly washing, as well as sweat and rain, the coated barrier on the pads can break down over time. It doesn't affect their performance, it just makes them sticky to handle. The stickiness is easily managed by re-powder coating the pads - either with plain flour or talc powder.
-
Can I order additional gel pads.Yes, you can purchase additional gel pads to be used with our Propadz vest. While our pads are durable (many pro players are still using their original pads one year on), natural wear and tear may occur. You can order a new set of gel pads by reaching out to us or visit our shop page. Additional pads are only sold in SETS of 7 and size of pads will vary depending on your vest size.
