Vaughn Goalie Equipment Sizing

Please note that all sizing formulas and charts that are listed below are only general guidelines for proper sizing of equipment. A lot of factors could cause variances from player to player including personal preference and different styles of play. We recommend (whenever possible) players be fitted by one of our goalie experts at our retail location in Dover, New Hampshire OR speak to one of our goalie experts toll free.

Vaughn Goalie Pads

An easy way to properly estimate a goaltender's size for a pair of goal pads is to take the following three measurements:

1) Floor to mid-point of knee cap - _________" (A)

2) Mid-point of kneecap to desired height on thigh - _________" (B) - measurement is generally 2/3s of the inseam measurement from mid-point of kneecap up. If a taller pad is desired, 3/4 of this measurement can be used

3) Skate size - _________ x 0.75 = _________ (C) - only add up to size 10 skate as goal skate shells (cowlings) do not get larger over size 10.

The estimated size of pads would then be (A) + (B) + (C). We also need goaltenders height to compare to the measurements, as it is very common for people to add to the "real" measurements and this can completely distort the required size.

Vaughn Goalie Chest & Arms

Arm span (finger tip to finger tip) usually correlates directly to height. With this in mind, follow the charts below to estimate the proper size for an arm & chest protector:

Models: VP 8000, VP 7000, VP VAULT & VP 3700

Models: VP 800, VP VAULT JR. & VP 700

The arm length should not go below wrist line. You can combine different size arms with a different size chest pad at no extra charge. (example: medium arms with a large chest)
