How Do I Choose The Best Football Pants
Posted by Gord Murray on 12/3/2011 to Football Articles
Choosing the best football pants depends on a couple of factors. Budget and level of use are two key factors. While budget is an important factor, it should not be the deciding factor, if durability is what you seek. You need to consider your level of activity and how much use you want out of your football pants. Youth Football Pants  presents even more challenge. And it becomes   really difficult to ignore the issue of price. Because there is a very good chance that some  kids may grow out of these football  pant by the end of the season.

Football Pants are usually made with nylon or polyester or mesh for warm weather practices. The addition of spandex makes for a tighter fit. Most pants are made  with the traditional lace-up fly as a zippered fly are not practical and subject to damage due to stress in the rough and tumble of  football game. The in sides of the pants legs usually contain four individual pockets to hold two thigh pads (one for each leg) and two knee pads. The pads are placed in the pockets before the pants are put on.  The pants are secured with a belt, sometimes with a traditional metal buckle or with several rings.  With so many choices and features  it could be really  confusing selecting the right pair of pants . There are few  a basic  features to look at when choosing  duruable football pants .

  1.   Good percentage stretch material (lycra or spandex) 15+ percent
  2.   Machine washable
  3.   Durable knee and thigh pads
  4.   cover stitched seams for extra strength and durability.

Can we use sweatpants instead of football pants. My son would be wearing them in practice.

Janey sweatpants are not duraable enough to withstand the bump and grind of football. If cost is any issue, we tons football pants in the $20 price range
