The Bauer Nexus N9000 pant are designed with a fit every hockey purist will love. The classic construction offers a wide, volume fit that allows for ultimate coverage and unmatched mobility. The huge success of the predecessor Nexus 800 pants allowed Bauer to tweak and improve minor areas of an already protective pant to offer an unmatched product. To protect, Bauer uses a molded dome hip guard and molded HD foam kidney pads to protect against impacts. The spine protection is made up of molded HD foam as well to better disperse impacts taken. The thigh padding offers a 2-piece ergonomic pad to wrap around the leg and protect at all angles. A Thermo Max liner is featured on the inside to wick moisture away from the body to keep you comfortable all game. The exterior of the pant is made up of nylon with 840 denier abrasion resistant overlays on the thighs for better last and durability. Stretchable leg gussets and leg zippers allow you to easily put on your pants before or after your skates and flex panels in key areas aid in mobility. The pants fasten with a skate lace and buckle closure. In addition, the N9000 pants offer an extension fit, allowing the pant to drop 1" for those growing players.
