I have bought these sliders before for my son and my husband and they last! Both my guys are rough on their sports clothes, and the Marucci sliders( with padding) are able to last a long time- I mean the last pair I had to replace we had for 2 years! I buy the same ones each time b/c of their quality.

My kid loves them he feels more confident with the position the space for the cup has. The passing lets him slide with feeling less friction from the dirt. Fabric has held up really nicely. A product I would buy again in the future when needed.

My son really likes these. They are soft and supportive, and wearing a cup is not too uncomfortable with these.

5 beags121
My son's baseball pants were thin and you could see through a little which horrified him of course LOL. The sliding pants were perfect. Obviously it removed the see through aspect. But also, good support for when he did slide to avoid having raspberries.

I 've been wearing sliding shorts for soccer and baseball since I was a kid, and these have been the most comfortable by far. They resist loosening/sagging, and offer the right amount of protection.

5 Soccermom40
This is my son ’s 4th pair and he loves them. They are not too tight but they stay in place when diving, jumping and etc. while playing goalie.

5 JGBC
My son is a speedy dude who does a lot of sliding on the base paths. Even though these are marketed for soccer goalkeepers, they work great for baseball too. The extra padding is right where my son needs it to avoid scrapes and has even extended the life of some of his baseball pants. Although a little bit pricey, the quality makes it work it.

My daughter loves these shorts for soccer. She uses them while playing as goalkeeper. They also are n't bulky so when she plays another position besides goalkeeper they do n't interfere with her ability to run and move on the field.

5 Rlynchla
My daughter is a goalkeeper that has resisted wearing padding on her hips because most goalkeeper short are bulky. These sliders provide the same protection with a fraction of the bulkyness!

I bought these for my son after the compression short was way too tight( and he is a skinny kid). These allow excellent quality padding under his non padded uniform shorts and they are fine to wear by themselves too. The padding is much firmer than his adidas and uhlsport keeper shorts. He plays 2 games per week and practices 5 days a week so these are getting lots of use. We purchased 2 pairs. If you purchase direct from Storelli, they charge return shipping if stuff does not fit. Buying at Dicks is so much better because they offer free returns or you can take back to the store.

Frequently Asked Questions For Foam Padded Shorts

Foam padded shorts are designed primarily for impact protection during various sports and activities. They provide cushioning in key areas to help reduce the risk of injury from falls or collisions. These shorts are commonly used in sports like baseball, football, and skateboarding, where sliding or contact is frequent.

Foam padded shorts are typically made from a blend of synthetic fabrics that offer durability and flexibility. The padding is often made from high-density foam or gel materials, which provide both comfort and protection. Additionally, moisture-wicking properties are common to help keep the wearer dry during intense activities.

When selecting foam padded shorts, it's important to refer to the sizing chart provided by the manufacturer. Measure your waist and hips to find the appropriate size, keeping in mind that a snug fit is essential for optimal protection and comfort. Consider any additional layers you may wear underneath when making your choice.

Foam padded shorts are versatile and can be used in a variety of sports, particularly those involving sliding or physical contact. However, the level of protection and design may vary based on the specific sport. It's important to choose shorts that are tailored to the demands of your chosen activity for the best performance.

When shopping for foam padded shorts, consider features such as the thickness and placement of padding, breathability of the fabric, and moisture-wicking capabilities. Additionally, look for shorts with a comfortable waistband and a design that allows for a full range of motion. These features can enhance your overall experience during sports activities.

Yes, many foam padded shorts are designed with lightweight and breathable materials that make them suitable for warm weather. Look for options that incorporate moisture-wicking technology to help keep you cool and dry. Proper ventilation and a comfortable fit are key factors to consider when wearing padded shorts in hotter conditions.
