The Bauer Nexus 600 Ice Hockey Pants offer great protection and performance - and just look at that pirce! Much like the rest of the Bauer Nexus family, the Nexus pants deliver a classic fit and thicker foams for your thigh, hip, and spine - which all means great added protection. The spine and kidneys are protected with a thick layer of high density foam and the interior of the pant contain segmented foams backed by plastic inserts for great protection and mobility. The thigh areas use the same thicker foams backed with ribbed plastic inserts and the exterior is nylon in the front with ventilated mesh in the rear for great breathability.
