Protective gear, in the form of body pads, for use with ice hockey players and particularly goaltenders, and possibly other sports is described. The protective gear includes a primary front protective pad securable to a player and generally configured to cover a portion of the player's chest and to extend downwardly to cover a portion of the player's abdomen. The gear also includes a rear protective pad securable to a player and generally configured to cover a portion of the player's back, the front and rear pads being flexibly connected to each other by at least one flexible connection to form a single unit, with one of the primary front pad, the rear pad or the flexible connection having adjustment means to permit the secured position of the front pad to be varied in relation to the rear pad. This allows the primary front protective pad to extend to a greater or lesser extent downwardly over the player's abdomen, so as to accommodate desired positioning of said front protective pad on the player's body. An adjustable secondary front pad is also described which is attached to the primary front pad and the rear pad and which secondary front pad is configured to cover the player's upper chest and clavicle areas. The protective gear is also provided with arm sections securable to a player which sections are individually adjustable in length to allow proper positioning of elbow pads over the elbow joint, and in general to permit desired positioning of arm sections on the player's arm.
