The low-profile full chest width three-piece cardiac pad, built-in left shoulder protector, and one adjustable shoulder cap make the CPN41 a complete standalone chest protector for adult catchers who want the Select Plus platform outside of a complete kit purchase. Available at SPC Sports in four colorways -- black, navy, royal, and scarlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe built-in left shoulder protector is the defining feature of the CPN41 -- by extending the left shoulder panel to cover the throwing shoulder, the protector eliminates the gap between the top of the chest protector and the bottom of the helmet that standard adult protectors leave exposed, giving adult catchers integrated throwing shoulder coverage that moves with the protector without requiring a separate shoulder extension piece or additional mounting hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe low-profile full chest width three-piece cardiac pad system delivers NOCSAE Commotio Cordis certification (ND200-22) in a pad profile that sits closer to the body than traditional high-profile designs -- providing the maximum available cardiac protection standard while maintaining the natural range of motion that adult competitive catchers need for throwing mechanics, blocking movements, and the full range of athletic positioning that high school, college, and adult competitive catching demands through every inning of every game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eNFHS compliance means the CPN41 meets the equipment requirements for sanctioned high school baseball and softball play, so adult catchers at the high school, junior varsity, and varsity level can wear this protector in competition with confidence that it meets all applicable rules and certification requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe one adjustable shoulder cap provides customizable coverage for the non-throwing shoulder, complementing the built-in left shoulder protection to give adult catchers coordinated shoulder coverage on both sides of the protector -- adjustable to match individual body geometry and personal overlap preference between the helmet and the top of the chest protector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe 16.5-inch adult length provides the full torso coverage from the collarbone to the bottom of the midsection that adult catchers require at the correct anatomical position during crouching, blocking, and throwing movements without leaving the lower ab zone exposed below the bottom edge of the protector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAt 1.34 lbs the CPN41 delivers the full 16.5-inch adult coverage with built-in shoulder protection in a weight profile that never adds meaningful fatigue to the catcher's upper body load through a full doubleheader or extended practice session -- keeping adult catchers comfortable and mobile through every frame of every game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThis product comes with a 1 Year Manufacturer Warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFor more baseball and softball catcher's gear, browse the full \u003ca class=\"underline underline underline-offset-2 decoration-1 decoration-current\/40 hover:decoration-current focus:decoration-current\" href=\"https:\/\/spcsports.com\/collections\/spc-sports-baseball-catchers-gear\"\u003ebaseball catcher's gear collection at SPC Sports\u003c\/a\u003e.

Both meet NOCSAE Commotio Cordis (ND200-22) and NFHS compliance at the adult size. The CPN41 Select Plus features a low-profile three-piece cardiac pad and a built-in left shoulder protector with one adjustable shoulder cap -- prioritizing integrated shoulder coverage in a low-profile fit. The CPN31 Champion Plus features a six-piece full chest width cardiac pad with memory foam ab padding and a Comfort Tri-Flex harness with two adjustable shoulder caps. Choose the CPN41 for built-in shoulder protection and the CPN31 for maximum cardiac pad coverage width with memory foam ab padding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eWhat does the built-in left shoulder protector do? The left shoulder panel of the CPN41 is extended to cover the throwing shoulder, eliminating the gap between the top of the chest protector and the bottom of the helmet that standard protectors leave exposed -- providing integrated throwing shoulder coverage without a separate shoulder extension piece or additional hardware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eDoes the adult CPN41 include a groin protector? No. The detachable groin protector is included with intermediate, youth, and junior sizes of the Optimus Select Plus lineup only. The adult size does not include a groin protector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Champro","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":44431920824362,"sku":"CPN41B","price":131.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Navy","offer_id":44431918956586,"sku":"CPN41NY","price":131.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue","offer_id":44431918989354,"sku":"CPN41RY","price":131.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Red","offer_id":44431919022122,"sku":"CPN41SC","price":131.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0590\/4000\/6186\/files\/CPN4_1_black.jpg?v=1780877858","url":"https:\/\/spcsports.com\/products\/champro-optimus-select-plus-chest-protector-cpn41","provider":"SPC Sports","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
