Hi I’m Tony. I hope you find this post on ice hockey equipment of interest and assistance to you. Please bear in the mind this is an information site.
If you are looking for ice Hockey equipment to Buy
I know when my son Craig started to play ice hockey, I was in need of information of what ice hockey equipment I needed to buy and where best to buy the ice hockey products from. But before buying, I also needed to learn about exactly what ice hockey equipment he needed before I could even think of where to buy it from.
There were certain ice hockey equipment items I thought we needed to go and try on, and off we went to the shop at our local ice hockey rink. However, this shop was only small, serving the ice hockey players as well as the figure skaters. I didn’t feel entrusted that the right or best products were on offer and so I came home and started searching for more information and possibilities of where I could buy ice hockey equipment from. I discussed the sizing and fitting of various items with other parents of the ice hockey team as well as the coach, and this gave us the chance to try some items for size and fitting and get a feel as to what suited Craig so I could go and find this gear at the best price.
There is a wide range of ice hockey equipment products available to choose from and you may find there is a certain brand you prefer whether it be for the look, the performance of the equipment or the fitting.

It is important that you ensure your ice hockey equipment is the correct size and fits you properly, as we know that ice hockey is fast`and exciting game and protection should come up high as a priority.
Ice hockey gear is available in a wide price range from the cheap ice hockey equipment available at the entry stage for beginners to the higher priced range for the more advanced serious players and you need to define as to what level entry you are entering and require. For us, starting out, we also searched for used ice hockey equipment but this did not always bring a lot of success as I was conscious about how good and reliable the gear would be and why it was being sold. There were certain items, such as his helmet, which I wanted to buy brand new. Like any parent, I wanted to ensure that my son is protected when he goes out on the ice.
The more I searched, the more I found online retailers selling ice hockey gear at much more attractive prices. I have also found that depending on the time of year when purchasing your ice hockey gear, you can find some great bargains and discount ice hockey equipment or clearance items, particularly if you know exactly what hockey equipment you are looking for. The reason for this is you may find that stores have an end of season sale, wanting to clear items to make room for new products to come in for the season ahead. If the end of season sales fits into your time schedule for buying hockey equipment, it can certainly help you in saving a few pennies.

After making my list of all the obvious and essential items of ice hockey equipment needed, such as helmet, skates, stick, shin guards, shorts, elbow pads, gloves, body armour and neck guard, there was also a few essential under garments that I needed to add including the protective box, long sleeve sweat or under skin and long leg sweat or under skin. I really had not thought about these but shortly after he started playing I realised how important they were. The protective box speaks for itself, but the skins are also important. These help with controlling the body heat and taking the sweat that the body produces when playing away from the skin and stops the protective gear sticking to the skin and rubbing against the skin, hence why long sleeve and long leg is important.
