football shoulder pads 3d model free download uniform with separate shoulder pads. Someone needs to make a football uniform with shoulder pads that you can use separately. I checked my library and I had a suit for Genesis, but the shirt is made to look like it is covering shoulder pads. I want to use the shoulder pads without the shirt. I thought there was also a suit for Mike 4 but it didn't come up when I searched my library. I have to look more carefully. I also checked the Daz store and the other stores that I could think of, but not too many football suits. Comments. There was an old uniform for Michael and Michael2 but it's probably been taken out of the catalog. I would love a football uniform that was realistic and not doughy. We already have many cheerleader uniforms but a distinct lack of players. Do a search for Touchdown Baby, which I think was for V4. It was one of those silly cosplay-ish sets with the pads on the outside. I would expect the shirt -- if it was a part of that item, was a separate matt zone. Pretty sure it was either PC or DAZ O since I think it came out during one of the month-long sale events back around 2010. Do a search for Touchdown Baby, which I think was for V4.

I knew I had a set of shoulder pads somewhere but couldn't remember what it was called and it got lost in my DAZ closet. I remember at the time I bought it that I was lamenting the fact that it didn't come with a jersey, but the pads are just what the OP is looking for. It could be retextured to white or black instead of that faux jersey motif. Football shoulder pads 3d model free download. Shoulder pads are a piece of protective equipment used in many contact sports such as , , and . The first football shoulder pads were created by Princeton student L.P. Smock in 1877. These were made of leather and wool and were thin, light, and did not provide much protection. Additionally, they were sewn into the players' jerseys rather than being worn as a separate piece of equipment. [1] Allegedly Pop Warner was the first to have his players wear shoulder pads. [2] When he was coaching at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School, he was the first one to use pads made of fiber rather than cotton. [3] Most modern shoulder pads consist of a shock absorbing foam material with a hard plastic outer covering. The pieces are usually secured by rivets or strings that the user can tie to adjust the size. [ citation needed ] Properly fitting pads are critical. Shoulder pads are fitted to an adult football player by measuring across the player's back from shoulder blade to shoulder blade with a soft cloth tape measure and then adding ​ 1 ⁄ 2 inch. All points of the pads should be checked to assure proper fit. Maintenance during football includes monthly checks and replacing worn parts. [ citation needed ] In terms of American Football, various styles of shoulder pads exist for different positions played. Pads for a quarterback are lightweight and offer freedom of movement. Pads for linemen are designed with few flaps and epaulets, thus reducing the opportunity of being grabbed by the opposition. A player may have a preference for vinyl buckles or elastic straps.

Football Shoulder Pads Features and Benefits. There are a few things that should be considered before you make a commitment to purchase a set of shoulder pads. Educating yourself on the features and benefits of gear is important to making your decision because pads can be designed specifically for certain positions. For example, Lineman shoulder pads will provide better protection with more weight and coverage. Whereas quarterback shoulder pads are lighter and allow more movement, while still protecting against hard hits from blitzing defenders. Here’s a more in-depth look at what to look for: Position. Multi-Position- If you have a child that is still trying out multiple positions, or is playing both sides of the field it’s best to look for Multi-Position pads. Often these are provided by school teams but if it’s a club sport or private training find a high quality pair of youth football shoulder pads is crucial. Often these pads are medium-weight and don’t go very far down the sternum to allow for movement. They are going to be heavier and thicker on top of the shoulders to allow hitting. Quarterback/Receiver- Movement is crucial for both of these positions, so look for pads with proper construction. These pads will be designed with less plastic, and have contoured plates so that protection isn’t sacrificed in order to allow movement. Running Back/Defensive Back(s)- These positions are all high-impact AND require the maximum amount of mobility. This sometimes means paying a higher price for technology, but it’s worth it. These pads often have more protection on the sternum because players in these positions take more direct hits. Lineman/Tight Ends- Positions on the line take the most repetitive hits and impacts. Shoulders and sternum are the most reinforced areas on lineman shoulder pads, but they are designed to allow for the “arms-up” motion required by players in this position. Weight/Build. If you buy football shoulder pads based on the position you or your child are playing, then weight will factor in based on that. If you shop simply for generic or multi-position pads, then make sure you check out the weight of the pads. You’ll also want to compare them to others. When brands or certain models advertise durability and strength, they might not be focused on making sure they don’t drag the player down. Pads that are advertised as lightweight should motivate you to read reviews to see if the pads have held up after multiple uses and hard hits. As mentioned before, if you want both lightweight and durable pads they are going to cost you more. However, it’s worth the cost in the long run. Sizing plays into this, as well. If you are wondering how Youth football pad sizes are supposed to fit on your child, you can check out more information here. Mobility. Weight obviously ties into this, as does position pads. Having protection without mobility can leave any football player just as prone to injury because it will force you to move in unnatural ways. If the safer movement is not possible in the pads, then it’s time to look for a different set. Back/Sternum Protection. While we refer to this particular gear as Shoulder Pads, Torso Pads might be a better moniker. Back pads are frequently sold separately to add protection to players who land on their back from getting hit straight on. Some are even built in. Extended Sternum protection is necessary for those giving hits from the front repeatedly. There are also attachments to give extra protection to the ribcage, as well as compression sleeves and shirts designed to reinforce protection to shoulders and clavicles. Final Thoughts. Whether you’re an adult or collegiate player looking for high quality pads for high-impact games, or a parent/coach/trainer seeking protection for a student athlete, health and injury is constantly on the mind. One wrong hit or one piece of faulty gear can be life altering. This is why many parents choose to purchase gear for their children even when there are some provided for the team. Generic brands can lack technological advances that prevent injury. Used gear could have structural damage that isn’t noticeable to the untrained eye.
