True Catalyst L87 INT Goal Pads

The TRUE Catalyst L87 Intermediate Goalie Pads bring classic Lefevre-inspired styling to goalies who require intermediate sizing. The traditional knee-roll face is paired with a thin, structured thigh rise, flexible boot and modern FRS calf system, creating a pad that supports current butterfly technique without losing the connected feel associated with heritage-style equipment.

Catalyst L87 Intermediate Features

• Intermediate-specific construction: The pad retains the L87 performance profile in lengths and proportions intended for smaller competitive goalies.
• Traditional knee-roll appearance: The heritage face provides a classic Lefevre look while the internal build is designed for modern rotation and ice seal.
• Controlled puck response: The face is designed to keep rebounds more manageable, helping developing goalies maintain control of second-chance situations.
• Thin, stiff single-break core: The upper pad creates dependable five-hole structure, while the single break provides enough flex for stance and movement.
• Flexible boot: The lower pad supports ankle mobility and helps the pad move naturally during recoveries and post play.
• Single-break outer roll: The external break complements the core and preserves the more traditional flex pattern of the L87.
• Recessed knee cradle: The flush landing area provides room for knee protection and promotes clean rotation into the butterfly.
• FRS dual-adjustable calf wrap: The internal calf system allows the upper and lower tension to be tuned independently for stability and rotation control.
• Clarino weave sliding edge: Durable synthetic material on the inner edge supports smooth lateral butterfly movement.
• Hybrid bungee toe and 110-degree boot: The elastic toe connection and open boot geometry reduce restriction around the skate while maintaining post coverage.

A Heritage Pad for Developing Competitive Goalies

The intermediate L87 is best for goalies who want a classic pad face and a more forgiving lower section while still receiving a stable thigh rise and adjustable calf connection. Proper sizing should be determined through knee placement and pad rotation, not age or listed height alone.
