Impact shorts are designed to protect your hip, tailbone, thigh, and buttocks. They are the length of regular shorts but include padding in strategic areas to cushion falls. Worn under your clothing, they help alleviate next-day aches and pains and provide protection against more serious injuries.
Impact pants are especially recommended for beginner skaters but are also beneficial for any type of riding where you might land on your hip or butt, such as ramp skating. Skateboard impact shorts are versatile and can also be used for other action sports like inline skating and stunt scootering.
Hard or Flexible Pads to Fit Your Preference
With padded shorts, you have a variety of styles and designs to choose from. Harder, stiffer pads feature stronger padding and durable EVA foam, offering optimal protection against severe impacts. Thinner pads provide more flexibility but less protection.
Additionally, we all know that a good skate session can be a tough workout. For this reason, many brands design their shorts to be breathable and moisture-absorbing.
Padded pants are just one component of protective gear you should wear when skating. For skateboard head protection, check out our range of Skateboard Helmets.
