Ice Hockey Pants
Ice hockey pants are yet another necessary part of the overall protection package you need while out on the ice. Depending on the aggressiveness of the matches you play in, you may need hockey pants with more protection or less protection. You can choose a shell/girdle combination or purchase a one piece pants/girdle unit. Basic lower body protection can be found in ice hockey pants in the $50 range. You will find pants with some amount of protection around your hips, lower back/spine and thigh. The pants will likely be made out of nylon and the pads are usually plastic at this price level. The price may be attractive to beginners but as you progress in the game, you may find you need more protection with better movement. Ultimate Protection in Ice Hockey Pants
When you step up to the nicest ice hockey pants, priced over $150, you find many improvements in the flexibility of the pants and the protection offered in a pant/girdle combination. At this price range, you will find adjustable pads for customizable protection, higher quality foam, better ventilation and excellent moisture protection. The pants in this category typically weigh less than other pants because of the lighter yet stronger materials used in making the pants.
