5.0 out of 5 stars A great pant. I wholeheartedly recommend these pants for goalkeeping, especially indoor.I had been wearing shorts w/socks for indoor previously, but after a couple seasons on some less than great turf, my legs were getting pretty torn up. Rugburn doesn’t heal quickly, especially if you have another game 2 nights later. It looked like I had been in a motorcycle accident with no protective clothing on. I wore shorts somewhere and was asked if I had taken a cheese grater to my legs.Anyway, the point is that since the facility wasn’t going to invest in better turf, I had to get some better gear. I checked the reviews and these pants had good marks. I ordered a pair in XL because I’m not exactly a small guy. Be forewarned, Reusch’s XL is BIG. Like Hammer Pants big. I had to send them back and get L because no amount of drawstring was going to keep these pants up. This pair lasted for almost two years before they got retired. I used them mostly indoor, but also for a couple outdoor games. The padding is good and durable. The material has good stretch and doesn’t wear easily.Overall, these pants saw some wars and did great duty. With how much time we goalies spend on the ground diving and sliding, these pants are a necessity.One tip that I learned from experience: When cleaning, do not dry these in a dryer! Air dry only. The heat from a dryer shrinks the padding sewn into the lining. It’ll last a lot longer if you keep them out of the dryer. 19 people found this helpful
