Goalkeeper pants for men
Goalkeeper Pants
A goalkeeper pant protects you from bruises and abrasions. With goalkeeper pants on, you can go for every ball without fear. Goalkeeper pants come in different lengths, and the choice depends on the weather and the level of protection you want.
You can choose between long or short goalkeeper pants. Long goalkeeper pants provide protection at the hips and knees. These areas are equipped with padding, a type of cushion, that absorbs the impact. Short goalkeeper pants only provide protection at the hips.
Material
As a goalkeeper, you are sometimes active and other times still. In both cases, it's important to keep your body at the right temperature. Goalkeeper pants are made from materials that quickly wick away moisture. This helps keep your body dry and prevents you from cooling down due to sweat. If you do cool down, your muscles also cool down, and the risk of injury increases. Polyester is a commonly used material. Polyester wicks moisture away quickly, dries fast, and is light, durable, and resistant to losing its shape or color.
Tip
Wash the goalkeeper pants according to the care instructions. These are found on the label inside the pants. Do not use fabric softener and avoid putting the pants in the dryer.
