OVERVIEW
The Brian’s Optik X4 Junior Catcher & Blocker Set is built for young goalies learning to read plays, react quickly, and control rebounds with confidence. Lightweight, balanced, and game-ready, this set mirrors the features of elite-level senior gear but scaled down for youth sizing, comfort, and mobility.
Whether they're just getting into butterfly saves or learning to control the puck with the blocker, the X4 Junior set delivers the fit, feel, and responsiveness that developing goalies need to grow their game with confidence.
