Description
The Crouch neck guard is very popular for short track as well as hockey.
Canadian made and manufactured.
im Crouch Collars are made with ballistic nylon for maximum protection from neck lacerations, and reinforced with a thin layer of shock absorbing foam in the neck band. Soft to the touch and flexible compared to the rigid models we often see from competitors.
This “Soft Combo” model features a bib for increasedย protection below the neckย and additional comfort. We highly recommend this bib style over the simple “band” style player neck guards which only provide a small strip of protection across a players neck leavingย much of theย neck exposed.
The lightweight, washable neck guard provides superior comfort and fit.
Kim Crouch Collars are BNQ certified. ย Complies with Minor Hockey requirement from Hockey Canada.

CBC Investigates
Decades after he nearly died, hockey player asks why neck guards still aren’t mandatory
Aย neck guardย (also called aย Kim Crouch collar) is a piece of protective equipment worn by players around the neck area, particularly by (though not exclusively) players in the ice skating team sports ofย ice hockey,ย bandy,ย ringette, andย rinkball.
The guard is designed to prevent injury to the neck byย ice hockey pucks,ย ringette rings,ย bandy balls, the metal blades onย ice skates, and various types of sticks, i.e.ย ice hockey sticks. This piece is especially critical to goaltenders, especiallyย ice hockey goaltenders, who are more likely at risk to be injured in this area.
