Mission Boss Pants?

Recommended Posts

Just got a pair of Mission Boss pants and they are pretty sweet. The question I have is that they seem a little short in the length. I bought the Senior XL which is the size I wear in my other pants(Hyper,Tour). These seem to be about 2 inches shorter than my other pants. I'm 6'2 and these fall just short of the laces of my skates. When I sit they are way the hell up my shin pads. Is this just the way Mission pants are made or is there maybe a sizing discrepancy on this particular pair of pants? Any thoughts are appreciated.

All the Mission pants that I've owned have been short length. What Tour pants do you have? I had a pair of 10W40s that were just as short as my Helium 10000s.

Houls try to wear them a little further down your hips.

Sounds like your wearing them over your girdles (thus higher up on the body) instead of in the same place as pants.

XL should be big enough if your 6'2.

I'm wearing them right below the kidney pads on my girdle. Same place I wear my other pants. Apparently this is just how Mission pants are made. It's not a huge deal, I just wanted some input from guys who've worn Mission pants. It won't prevent me from wearing them, they are awesome pants. Thanks for the help.

I havent seen the Boss pants in person yet, but from what i remember Missions XL sized pants were always pretty big compared to the others.

Im 6'3 and wear an XL pant. They usually go down to about halfway down the skate and tuck the remaining pant behind the tendon guard. Then again, i sag my pants because im cool like that.

Here is a pic from this mornings game...(white helmet)They are too short. I can't slide them any lower on my girdle. It's a shame because I really like them.

Here's another while skating.(19 in blue)Check out how high they ride up while in stride.

take out that shin strap and they should sag down like you would like them, i have had that problem with past mission pants, but once i took that out, they were fine

hope that helps!

Thanks 778 that did the trick! I use the straps on my shinguards so the one in the pants wasn't necessary. They did drop down when I removed them.

I purposely put the strap up a bit higher, as I had people telling me how sick they were of having the pants legs interfere with their wheels.

Love the pants Justin, best pair I've ever worn.(Hyper Steel a close second.)

Yeah that strap was making the legs ride up a little high. Thanks.
