Looking for new hockey pants

Recommended Posts

Okay, so after a game tonight my Rbk 7k pants took another big beating yet again. I decided that with all the problems, I couldn't use them anymore. So I'm looking for new pants, but I've got some games soon so I need new pants ASAP. I'm looking to go to The Hockey Shop, in Surrey,BC and I'm contemplating on some pants. My budget is around 100-150. I could really, really, use help. So far, these are my picks.

-CCM Tacks 501 Pro Stock pants

-CCM Pro Senior pants

-Reebok Pro Pants

-Tackla 4000

-Tackla 951.

At the moment, I'm really leaning towards the CCM Tacks or Rbk Pros. I'd really like to go for Tackla's, but I don't really want to shell out that much unless it's a must. Please help, my next ice time is monday. I'm hoping I can get something by then.

Edit: Probably shoulda rethought the title. Just like that cause I'm leaning towards those models.

If you can get the CCM/RBK 520 series in your budget, go for it, those are great pants. If not, I prefer Tackla retail models.

It sounds like they're the old ones. I just ask because I really thought the new Reeboks are fantastic pants and recommend them for the price, although I know some Reebok gear lately has shady quality.

For durability I like Chadd's suggestion, you can't go wrong with those choices, they should last forever.

Huh. This is harder than I thought. I just found a pair of unused Mission L3 pants in my basement. They seem pretty decent. The inside liner looks like that of Tackla. Just from a first look, it seems to be somewhat comparable to Tackla. Anybody know the general performance value of it? It seems mid-range or higher to me. Maybe I'll use these as a substitute until I can get a pair of Tackla's.

Edit: Tackla "Style" I doubt there as good as Tackla.

You know, I`m rather disapponted today. I found some Tackla 951`s and my dad was in a good mood so he offered to pay the rest as long as I paid him back later. And they didn`t have it in my size. So I just settled for a CCM Tacks shell and I`ll be using my Mission pants for a while...

Well, I finally got my other One 95 stick sold off, so I got a pair of One 95 pants. Only semi-downside is that there was a pair of Tackla Air 5000's for the same price but one size too small. Maybe I should consider losing a bit of weight. The options for getting more gear would probably pay off.
