Hockey pants


Hockey pants are knee-to-waist protective gear for ice hockey or roller hockey players. The pants carry a variety of padding depending on whether they are worn by goaltenders or skaters, and also on the manufacturer.
The pants are traditionally a one-piece garment with a lace-up fly augmented by a strap belt. Sometimes, they are additionally held up by suspenders.
Hockey pants are also called "breezers" in North Dakota, Minnesota and Wisconsin.
