Franklin Sports Kids Costume Football Shoulder Pads - Lightweight Dress Up Shoulder Pads for Youth + Toddlers - Perfect for Halloween Football Costumes

My son used this under his Jersey for his football costume. It was perfect! This is not meant to actually use to play football , just for costume dress up.

My Nephew loved it. It fitted perfectly under his Football player costume. He wore all day. His teachers and classmates were so excited by his costume

Very small. Can adjust string to fit shoulder but it doesn’t really pack a punch when my son had it on. Barely added any shoulder height.

I used this to make a cheap samus costume for my very tall 3 year old. I spray painted the shoulders with primer then orange, fabric painted the fabric part red, and replaced the black shoelace with fluorescent green. (Also made a little blaster by gluing a small flashlight into a soda bottle and cutting out the bottom.) She loves it. It looks great and I think it will fit her for a while. Problem is, it doesn't really hold its shape. There is one picture review here where you can see what it looks like when it lays flat. I tried to stick it in a tight box when she wasn't wearing it so it would stay bent over the shoulders, but only a few minutes after putting it on it would curl back up, and also turn sideways so that the shoulder pads hang in front and behind her. Frustrating. She still loves it though. It's not really a problem if you're planning to put a shirt or jersey on top.

Cute and lightweight. Perfect for costumes and pretend play. Made of foam and light plastic. I have rowdy boys and it is still in tact.

Franklin and Amazon ought to be ashamed of themselves for making and selling this product. I know the expression "you get what you pay for" but this is even worse than that. Labeling it as "Costume" is far from accurate as it ought to have the word JUNK in parenthesis next to the product name. The photo is the worst false advertising I have seen in a long time! It is literally a flimsy piece of thin, black foam with two little molded plastic cups sewn to the foam, which by the way have ripped entirely off on one side since you have to carefully try and tuck it under a kids t-shirt so it will stay and have some resemblance to football pads.We got this for our youngest son (3 y.o.) for Christmas because he lives and breathes football. He thinks they're real pads, because he is 3, so he loves them! I am the one who is let down that one side has completely ripped apart in just 1 month of use and the other side is close behind.Little kids put their heart into this kind of thing because they believe it is the real deal. My son continues to wear it even though it's ruined. I couldn't take it away from him if I tried. How disappointing that Franklin would produce such a lousy item. Worse of all (and I am a die hard patron) Amazon is stooping pretty low to make a lousy couple bucks trying to sell this piece of garbage!!!

It too cute on my 2 year old grandson and he like it

We purchased these for our son's 7th birthday. He loves everything sports and thought these were the coolest thing! They are definitely flimsy and more of a costume prop vs real pads - so if you need real shoulder pads maybe keep looking. He loves wearing them to play catch outside. Easy to get on and off and I think they'll fit him for another year if he decides to keep wearing them.
