Where heritage meets innovation, the Bauer Nexus 1000 Pants combine high quality protection and mobility with a classic design. True to the hockey purist, this classic construction, a wide, volume fit, plus strategically placed stretch zones allow for an effortless, less restricted stride. Segmented kidney and hip pads also make the pants less restrictive, ultimately giving you maximum mobility during play. The hip and thigh boards are designed with F-ONE shell technology. This technology fuses high-density foam and rigid HDPE as one, giving you 25% greater energy absorption and a 15% weight reduction over traditional HDPE pads. F-ONE shell technology, plus EPP Molded Superlight foams in the spine and kidney guards, set a new standard of protection for those areas of the body that takes the brunt of blocking shots, body checks and slashes. Own the moment, every shift of every game with advanced protection, mobility, fit, and style for the advanced player with the Bauer Nexus 1000 Pants.
