The Nexus N8000 pants deliver some serious value in Bauer’s roomiest fitting hockey pant. The N8000 deliver all the same protective features as the 1N, with the exception of Seven Tech spine, which is replaced with a more traditional molded HD foam. Molded HD foam rounds out the rest of the protective areas of the pant, with a 2 piece thigh and domed hips contributing to the overall fit of the pants. Bauer also included a revamped extension fit system, which replaces zippers with suspender loops allowing players to add a full inch to the length of their pants. Strategically located flex zones and 840D nylon form the shell of the pant, keeping it super durable in high traffic areas, and plenty flexible for the spots that can limit your stride. Finally, Bauer’s THERMOMAX liner handles the moisture and heat transfer in these pants, keeping them light and cool through the game.
