About Impact
The great coach Don Shula once said, "learn from everyone, copy no one," and that's what we did at Impact. We took the words of the legendary coach literally, and created the most unique shoulder pads and accessories the football industry has ever seen.
At Impact Protective Equipment, we don't sell "gimmicks" that claim they do something they don't. We manufacture serious protection, for people who take protection seriously, and we stand behind each and every one of our products with one of the best warranty policies in the industry.
The shoulder pads and accessories you currently see on our web site are our Professional Model protective pads. They are the state-of-the-art in the football industry, and we realize they are not for everyone. All of our products are hand-made with the finest materials available. We do not cut corners when it comes to protecting the players you have entrusted us to protect, and we never will.
The old-style "air system" shoulder pads served the football industry for the past 25 years. Think for a minute. Can you name one piece of football equipment that has not gone through a design change to make the product better in the past 25 years? Helmets, facemasks, jerseys, pants, mouthpieces, cleats, chin straps, hip pads, thigh pads, knee pads? We can, every one mentioned has been improved upon, except shoulder pads, until we came along!
New materials that are stronger, lighter, thinner, and more protective exist in the world today thanks to modern technology, and Impact is leading the way in the athletic industry. We have raised the bar when it comes to quality, and have set a new standard that our competitors unsuccessfully try to copy because………………
