padded compression undershirt

My grandson age 15, ICD cleared to play basketball. Anyone know where to find an undershirt with rib cage padding. I saw basketball player with one but can't seem to get any information. He has special implant behind abdomen.

I use Evo Shield "shooter shield shirts. I have 5 active grandkids and the protective pad completely covers my PM site.

Yesterday was my first day mountain biking after my implant. I wiped out several times and everything is fine. There are sports after pacemakers!
