The tech-driven sports protection brand G-Form released the Sierra Romero Signature Fastpitch Elbow Guard. Designed in collaboration with Romero, a pro and four-time All-American softball athlete, the design and detailing “bring a whole new definition of style to the game,” said G-Form.
“I was looking for a company that believed in my mission of trying to help expand the game of softball, and that was G-Form,” shared Romero, “I’ve been through everything these young players have been through. They deserve this. They deserve something made for softball players by a professional softball player.”
“We are thrilled to work with one of the greatest players in the history of women’s softball,” added Paul Fisher, G-Form’s VP of Global Product. “Sierra had a clear vision for the product from a performance and design perspective, and the result is a product that reflects both.”
Sierra’s G-Form guard features SR brand marks, signature and Romero family quote, “Product of Hard Work,” hidden under the adjustable-fit straps. The Shockwave Guard features larger impact zones, crafted explicitly for softball impact while remaining body-mapped, lightweight and more protective than hardshell guards.
G-Form launched the equipment in two colorways—White Iridescent and Black/Gold for adults and youth.
Romero continues her professional career with Athletes Unlimited Softball League. She has played on teams in the National Pro Fastpitch League for the University of Michigan and on Team USA. She is a 4x All-American, 2016 Player of the Year, 2015 ESPN Women’s Softball Player of the Year, 3x Big 10 Player of the Year, NCAA record holder in grand slams, NCAA record holder in career runs, and drafted No. 2 overall by the USSSA Pride.
