CCM PANTS CRAZY STRONG

[markjbrucks 3]

I got a pair of retail CCM "pro" pants last year, and they got stolen. Purchased TotalOne pants, and they are garbage. I have been looking for those same CCM pants again on sale or anywhere and can't find them. They now have the CRAZY STRONG pants, does anyone know if these are the same as the "pro" pants of last season. If i could see the inner liner/padding I would be able to tell, but I cant find a picture anywhere. I put a link to the pants.

Were your CCM "pro" pants a SMU for one retailer? Where did you buy them?

Or are you referring to the "U+ Pro"?

I am referring to the U+ Pro

They are not the same. They will still fit shorter than everyone else, characteristic of CCM pants (and even protective gear save for gloves and shins, but that's another matter) but the configuration of the pant uppers (tailbone, kidneys) are designed to give better 'hug' of the waist and back then compared to the Pros. Bending forward in both should give you this fit characteristic if I'm not mistaken. The padding the the newer CCM line is also softer, but thicker (I would argue an equal tradeoff in terms of keeping the protection level) than before. Similar fit styles, but different feel.
