A Good Multi-Purpose Product
In ice hockey from time to time I take a puck or stick to an exposed area of my upper body, and was looking for a base layer that provided a bit of padding to supplement my shoulder pads.
The Reebok 7K padded shirt is extremely light. It's obviously a bit heavier than a traditional base-layer, but it's astonishingly lightweight given all of the padding it has. The upper chest is hard HD foam, and the rest of the shirt is single density foam. Worn by itself, it provides more than enough padding for roller hockey, and when used in conjuction with shoulder pads it offers a great level of additional protection without adding bulk.
My only issue with the 7K padded shirt is that it gets hot. The "play dry" material of which the shirt is composed is nothing like other base layer shirts. It reminds me almost of those see-through sleeveless jerseys you had to wear in gym class. It is perforated and breaths, but it does not keep you cool the way say an under armour shirt would. Even for ice hockey, it does trap more heat than I'd like, but the occasional squirt of water down the chest/back counteracts it sufficiently.
The Reebok 7K padded shirt will give you good protection at a fair price, just keep a cold waterbottle around to keep cool.

This thing gets hot
Pros: Great value, Features
Cons: hot
When on the bench or just standing around the shirt traps body heat. When skating, it breathes and you don't even notice you're wearing it. The fit is very similar to an under shirt. The padding is excellent and the two center chest pads have a hard plastic plate on the surface adding even more protection. I've owned it for a couple of months and it shows no signs of wear or tear.

Good For What It Is
Pros: Great value, Quality, Easy to use
I got this for my roller league, I wasn't wearing anything other than elbow pads on my upper body, and got tired of taking pucks off the chest & stomach setting up in front of the net. Funny enough, I've worn this for a year now and don't think I've been hit since I got this, go figure. Very comfortable though, I don't even notice it. My first game playing with it was a bit of a transition, mainly because I'd never worn anything before, and I got really hot. Good for a non contact rec league.

Perfection
Pros: Helped improve my game, Great value, Quality, Easy to use, Features, amazing protection
This is perfect for off ice training and to wear under you shoulder pads. With off ice training it will give you the feel of wearing somewhat of your pads but you can move around normally. Under your shoulder pads it is like under armor. It protects the spots the you shoulder pads don't protect but without being uncomfortable.
