The REP Barbell Shoulder Pad is a solid, simple option for hip thrusts. It works well as long as you pay attention to the orientation and avoid placing the foam seam downward. There are higher-quality pads out there, but for my use, this one is completely fine and gets the job done.

I initially bought this for hip thrusters but have since got the AbMat pad that is significantly better for that movement. This works well enough for hip thrusters but if you position it wrong the bar will go right through the velcro portion and then it’s like you aren’t even using the pad. It’s made of great material and has held up well and wasn’t a crazy price. Now I don’t use it much- my wife and her friends sometimes use it for barbell squats. It’s good at what it’s intended for, but I don’t have much of a use case.

This pad has held up well. It's mainly used for hip thrust and has kept its form over the past year.

Bought this when I was having some shoulder and neck pain. The build quality and price are excellent. Performance wise I just found it be a little too thick when using.
