Bauer Elite Intermediate Goalie Pants S23

Intro & New Features
As any hockey goaltender knows, having reliable and high-performance gear is essential for success on the ice. Bauer has taken their renowned goalie gear and upgraded it for the 2023 season with a combination of new technology, what worked before, and what’s worked in their other gear families. The 2023 Elite pants feature a Thermomax liner, Volume Fit Thick Foam, and Dynamic 2 Flex thighs.

External Material
Similar to the previous pants, Bauer chose a lightweight and tough nylon material to cover the majority of the pant, providing excellent durability and protection, in addition to mesh material for breathability and stretchy fabric in the back to offer good mobility and flexibility. A newer feature to the pants is in the liner—the Elite pant has upgraded to Bauer’s Thermomax+ liner, which is both very light and breathable to increase comfort and aeration in the gear.

Fit
The fit of the Elite pant caters to a wide range of goalies, whether they prefer a tighter or looser fit. Various sections of the pants can be adjusted through belts, laces, and extensions.

Waist Closure & Internal Belt
The Elite pant has a removable internal belt to ensure the perfect fit, in addition to an external belt. The Elite pant keeps the traditional look and fit from the previous iteration with the skate lace style waist closure.

Hip Protection
The Elite goalie pants use a high-density cheater block on the outside of the hip to improve protection and coverage. It also employs Dynamic 2 Flex technology on the front of the hips to provide good protection and flexibility.

Thigh Protection
The Volume Fit Thick Foam serves to be both comfortable and highly cushioning when faced with impact force from the puck.

Leg Extension
Bauer uses their extension fit loop to give this pant some length customization. The fit loop extension gives the ability to lengthen their pants an extra 1.5 inches.

Knee Pad Attachment
For knee integration, the Elite pant offers an internal loop on the inside to attach, giving the knee pad a more secure fit.

Sizes & Colors
The Elite Intermediate pant comes in sizes Small, Medium, and Large in Black, Navy, and Red colours.
