Equipment Sizing: Pant Fitting
Ellbow Pads

To fit properly:

  1. Measure the player’s waist.
  2. Select the hockey pants with the corresponding size for that model. Use the chart below as a guide.
  3. Pants should reach the top of the player knee and extend up to cover the kidney and lower ribs. The molded polyethylene hip, kidney and tailbone pads and foam padding should cover critical areas. Pants should not be larger than required for unrestricted movement.
  4. Pants should have more padding the higher your level of play. The bottoms of the pants need to overlap the top of the shin pad kneecaps by 1 or 2 inches and extend up to cover the kidney and lower ribs. The rigid kidney protection should rest above the waistline.
