CCM 692 Tacks Pants Review Hot

sweet pants.
the adjust and have a good liner, so generaly comfy
neerly industructable. just unzip the legs when you put em on after your skates (dhoh!)
order your size + adjust em right = yay they fit
theyr flexible for me. i dont get any restriction out of em.
they got good solid pads and hard shells so they will do a good job on protection, but that does make em a bit heavyer so you get what you sweat for.
ive never even thought of swapping em out for something ealse. i love em

When I first start playing hockey I was about 10-15 pounds heavier. I wear these with suspenders.
Comfort – these fit loose and are very comfortable except for the tailbone protection (which keeps sliding right and left on me). I’ll rate these 4 for comfort.
Durability – I have about 70 hours of use and these pants have minimal wear on them. I rate them a 5 because I see a lot them on people who have been playing 2, 3 or more years with them.
Fit – I have the 36-38 inch waist size in these pants. They were a little big but having lost weight I now need the suspenders to wear them at all. Fit is a 3, these pants being larger and looser than my CCM Vector 04 pants.
Flexibility – these pants have enough room that flexibility is a non-issue. I’ll rate these to be a 5.
Protection – despite the fact that losing weight means these fit looser than they used to I use these for my league games when I play defence. The pants have more protection than my CCM Vector 04 pants and despite the fact that the pants are looser and move a bit more, the protection extends and compensates for the movement in the pants.
The tailbone protector slides around on me too much for my liking (but maybe because the pants are a bit large). I’ll rank protection a 4 (but a 5 if the tailbone protector didn’t slide so much)
Visual Looks: I like simple. Pants are simple. They are black and don’t have a lot of flash. I’ll rank these a 4.
Weight: These are heavy. The padding is thick. The pants are bigger. I use suspenders. I rank these a 3.
My final comment is that I see a lot of these pants out there… that says a lot in an area where people are always trying new equipment.
