Intro & New Features
As part of the Source Exclusive Vapor protective line, Bauer has released the new and improved Vapor Velocity Hockey Pants. The Source Exclusive Vapor Velocity pants bring a tapered fit with spine protection, an interior wrap-around cinch belt, and a Fly40 liner to keep you cool and dry. Whether you’re new to the game, play for fun, or you’re an upcoming star, the Vapor Velocity Hockey Pants are the perfect choice for you.
External Materials
The pants are held together by a 420D nylon shell, which is tough. Abrasion-resistant, and highly waterproof. This grade of nylon is often used in outdoor equipment and has a good balance between lightweight and thickness. The pants also include strategically placed overlays and stretch zones for better reinforcement and flexibility where needed.
Thigh Protection
The thighs are protected with a one-piece thigh guard, complete with molded PE shield inserts.
Hip Protection
The hips have a tapered fit paired with a molded PE shield insert for good coverage against impact force. As the agility line of Bauer’s hockey equipment, the pants need to allow you to be as aerodynamic as possible while you skate, which is where the tapered fit comes in. It’s a bit tighter at the top and slightly wider at the bottom for less wind resistance while you skate.
Spine Protection
The Vapor Velocity pants feature an integrated spine made with FlyLite molded foams to provide comfort and protection. This design allows players to move freely while maintaining adequate coverage and support. The spine itself is made with CURV composite, a lightweight and durable material that offers excellent impact resistance.
Kidney Protection
The kidneys are protected with molded PE inserts, which are designed for a closer fit while keeping your kidneys fully covered.
Liner
The Velocity hockey pants feature a Fly40 sublimated liner & fabric which is designed to provide comfort, but also keep the shin guards dry and cool while on the ice. The Flypro molded liner is designed to provide comfort to players, it is also removable and is able to be washed which keeps the players gear fresh.
Belt/Lace Closure
The pants use skate lace ties coupled with a wrap-around belt with a cinching closure system. This basically means that instead of pulling the belt in one direction, you would pull both from the left and right. This system is built to be a bit more efficient and easier to use than the classic quick strap.
Leg Zippers
The pants feature a 1” extension fit adjustability potential, in addition to inner leg zippers.

Bauer Hockey Player Pants Sizing Chart
Hockey Player Pant Sizing Information
When sizing for player pants, preference will largely determine how loose the waist of the pants fit. Your pants should fit comfortably around you, and most people like the waist to fit snug, but not too tight. A pant should fit so the belt is sitting right above your hips and around your waist.
Pants come equipped with at least one belt or fastening system to help them secure to your waist. You want to make sure that they are comfortable but not too loose so that they shift or fall down as you move or skate.
You may choose to use suspenders to help hold the pant up, however they are not required by any means. Most pants will come with suspender “buttons” to fasten to, but make sure you double check with the model you are interested in to make sure. Suspenders can be helpful when you are fitting growing to allow for growth room as it will allow you additional length, without having to keep a tight waist. Pants are also available in “Long” or “Tall” versions which offer 1” additional length without having to move up a waist size.
Fitting for Growth Room:
To fit a pant for growth room, make sure the pant fits securely around the waist, and the belt of the pant is sitting just above the hip bones. You want the pant to come down as far as possible however if it is fit too big, it will interfere with the shin pads and restrict movement. As a general rule, a pant with growth room should be in line with the bottom of the knee cap when standing straight legged and fastened at the waist. When you bend your knees and move into a ‘hockey stance’ the pant should slide up the knee and end up around the middle of the knee cap. A pant is too small once it does not reach the top of knee cap, standing straight legged.
Fitting for True Size:
To fit a pant true to size, make sure the pant fits securely around the waist, and the belt of the pant is sitting just above the hip bones. You want the pants to be long enough so they protect your thighs but not too long so that they interfere with your shin pads. We recommend a pant to fit between the middle and top of the knee cap, when you are standing straight legged. When you bend your knees and move into a ‘hockey stance’ the pant should slide up to fall in line with the top of your shin pads.
When viewing sizing online, most Pants will be offered in Small, Medium and Large and Extra-Large. Sizing charts are provided and on each product to double check where you line up and as well list all the sizes available. These charts are for reference only and personal preference is a factor as well when looking for the best fit. Protection levels will vary depending on the model you choose. As a general rule, the higher price points will offer more hip, kidney and tailbone protection without too much bulk. You can get a good quality pant at a lower price point but the fit, protection or movement of the pant may be somewhat compromised
Compare your height weight and age and waist size to the charts provided to find your best fit. If you are looking at a “Tall” version of a pant, the waist size on the chart will be accurate, however the length will represent that of the next size bigger.
