Play Like a Pro with Rawlings’ 950Z Catcher’s Gear

Yadier Molina, Geovany Soto, Ramon Hernandez—They all use Rawlings catcher’s gear, and so can you!

Rawlings’ 950Z catcher’s equipment uses Zoombang technology for the best protection and features a lightweight design for comfort and mobility.

Revised from the popular 950 line of catcher’s gear with the help of former pro catcher Mike Matheny, the 950Z series uses Zoombang material in the chest protector and knee padding to maximize your safety behind the plate.

Zoombang equipment was developed through collaboration with respected professional trainers, equipment managers and professional athletes. The unique Zoombang viscoelastic polymer is a semi-solid, plastic-like material that is extremely soft at rest and conforms to any shape but instantly behaves as a solid on impact.

The Zoombang material is soft and fluid-like to the touch. On impact, the Zoombang molecules lock together, spreading the shock to provide maximum protection. After impact, Zoombang material returns to its original state.

The 950Z chest protectors have dual removable shoulder caps and a wide flat front for better control and reduced ball rebound.

Athletes praise the Rawlings 950Z series. "It is the best chest protector I have ever used. It is light and I like the Zoombang pad," K. Miller of Pennsylvania said.

The leg guards have an adjustable knee insert for comfort and a patented design for protecting your instep.

Rawlings 950Z catcher’s gear is available in adult and youth sizes and in a variety of colors. Visit RawlingsGear.com or contact a Rawlings Gear Customer Care representative at (866) 678-GEAR(4327) to purchase your 950Z catcher’s equipment.
