Built for the Crease. Backed by Lacrosse Unlimited.
There’s no hiding in the cage. Every save, every rebound, every outlet starts with your gear. Whether you’re stepping into varsity minutes or locking down the crease at the highest level, the difference between a good goalie and a great one often comes down to confidence in your setup. Here at LU, we’ve broken down the goalie essentials to help you build a setup that performs when it matters most.
Command the Crease: Top Goalie Heads
STX Eclipse 3
The STX Eclipse 3 continues to set the standard for elite goalie play. Built with upgraded stiffness, this head minimizes flex on high-velocity shots; meaning more shots will stay in your stick instead of popping out. It’s the go-to for goalies who thrive under pressure and need a head that performs consistently, game after game.
ECD Impact Goalie Head
For goalies who play fast and aggressive, the ECD Impact brings a modern feel to the crease. It’s lighter, quick through the hands, and ideal for goalies who like to push transition after a save. If your game is built on reaction time and outlet speed, this is a serious option. We recently got our hands on an LE, the Diamond Impact. Check it out now before they are gone! 👀
LU Take:
If you want proven dominance, go Eclipse 3. If you want speed and a more agile feel, the Impact is your move
Stay Protected Without Slowing Down: Chest Protectors
STX Eclipse 600 Chest Protector
This is top-tier protection built for serious goalies. The 600 is designed to absorb heavy shots while maintaining a streamlined fit that doesn’t restrict movement. It’s everything you want at the varsity, travel, and collegiate level.
STX Eclipse 400 Chest Protector
The 400 offers a more balanced approach, great protection, comfortable fit, and ideal for developing goalies. It’s a reliable option that doesn’t overcomplicate things.
Maverik MX Chest Pad
The Maverik MX is a lightweight, no-nonsense option that gets the job done. Perfect for goalies who want mobility and solid protection at a strong value.
LU Take:
Go 600 if you’re seeing high-level shots regularly. The 400 and MX are perfect for building confidence and staying mobile.
Control Every Save: Goalie Gloves
Maverik Max Goalie Gloves
The Maverik Max gloves are all about comfort and control. They come game-ready with a natural feel and provide the flexibility goalies need to react quickly.
STX RZR 2 Goalie Gloves
If protection is your priority, the RZR 2 delivers. With a tighter fit and premium construction, these gloves are built for goalies facing high-level shooters.
LU Take:
Max = comfort and versatility. RZR 2 = elite protection and locked-in feel.
Build Your Setup
There’s no one-size-fits-all goalie setup—but there is a perfect setup for you.
-
Want elite-level consistency? Build around the Eclipse 3 + Eclipse 600 + RZR 2
-
Prefer speed and mobility? Go ECD Impact + Maverik MX + Maverik Max
At the end of the day, great goalie gear doesn’t just protect you, it elevates your confidence. And when you’re confident in the cage, everything slows down. That’s when you start stealing games.
