Rawlings Zoombang Adult Protection Shirt

Description

Based on a unique energy dissipating material called Zoombang Polymer, the Zoombang Basketball Compression Shirt provides the wearer with a layer of conformal cushioning and support that reacts to help dissipate energy when an impact is applied. Zoombang padding strategically sewn into the rib area of the shirt utilizes unique energy dissipating Visco-Elastic Polymer to absorb up to 80 percent of impact forces--providing up to 60 percent more impact protection than typical foams or gels. The Zoombang polymer is a soft, pliable liquid at rest that immediately changes physical characteristics when force is applied--stiffening to dissipate the energy and protect the wearer. Once the force has passed, the material transforms into its original conformal cushioning state. The shirt itself is constructed out of quick-drying, moisture wicking fabric that provides exceptional support for hardworking muscles. Features and Specifications: Pad Design: Soft, pliable semi-liquid at rest, When shear force is applied, material will behave as a solid to dissipate the energy Dissipates up to 60 percent more energy than foams and gels Lightweight protection: size large weighs 7.6 ounces Material: 82 percent Polyester / 18 percent Elastane, Quality Pro-Dri Fabric Pad Material: Visco-elastic polymer NCAA and NFHS rules compliant About Zoombang: Zoombang is a unique visco-elastic polymer that is soft and fluid-like at rest, but upon impact molecules instantly stiffen to absorb up to 80 percent of impact forces. The harder the hit, the more the cells react and protect. Once the impact has passed Zoombang instantly reverts back to a fluid-like state. Zoombang technology was developed a long side the trainers, equipment managers and athletes of the NFL where hundreds of athletes currently are wearing Zoombang products.
