If you're already looking on GM, I'd step up to the pro version and pay the extra dollars. Otherwise, The Goalie Crease has custom P1s if you fit a medium or bigger. Or you can go full custom and get a Simmons 997 which is on sale for $340, which I think is a steal.

The senior stuff is garbage. with C/As, just go pro or nothing.
I've had the 997, which was pretty good but had its own shortcomings. Specifically in the forearms, kidney/side protection and heart guard.
I got a P4 that I'm gonna use soon, so I'll review it afterwards.
I'm selling my TGC P1.....With extra belly/lower ab protection that I added....That thing's pretty awesome.
