These are great pants i mean that they have evey feature that you would want im only 5'1 and i got the mediums. They are a bit big but you get a lot of bounces and i mean a lot if u have a choice i would buy these over any pants except maybe the Dye's but these can keep up.

Review:
These really are great pants, buy them, they may not be as bright as the empire invert pants but they are a bit better for padding and quality but not by much. I'v only used these pants twice but even after that they have not shown any wear at all, not even the slightest bit like the previous pants i'v owned and the jersey i have, even through all the slides i was doing. The padding on the things are great. It covers all the right spot's and even has a "man" pad to protect you tho it does not help to much however it does help when sliding some so you sack yourself with your own body weight crushing some very precious peices of equipment. The padding in general is awesome and you can hardly feel anything through them, you can't even tell when you get hit most of the time and they cause alot of bounces to. I have a knee disease where if i have pressure on this spot that sticks out of my knee iy causes me great pain but with these pants on i couldn't even feel any pain at all and also i had my knees on top of rocks and didn't even know it thats how good the padding is. The only thing i wish these pants had more would be a bit thicker in the back of the legs to give you more bounces if you get hit there and for feel. I was sliding and i ended up on my back as i was because i had to shift my weight to try and raise my gun at a guy that was trying to bunker some one and i could feel a bit of ground on the back of my legs through the pants but they still protected me pretty well even through that. I'm greatful that my g/f chose these pants as a birthday present for me as these are the best pants i have ever used. I don't know how they would stand up against the c6 pants but i know they would be just as good or give them a run for there money which for the price, these pants are probably the better deal.
I am totally amazed by how many balls bounce off the pants. only ever had 2 balls break on these things and when they did they were both in the same spot 2 different times on the back of my ass, well just above it but the ass on my pants.
Conclusion:
Buy these pants!!! just another great product by empire. You will not be unhappy with these!!! I don't usually give products a 10 but for the quality of these pants and the price of them im gunna have to give them a 10.

Review:
Ok, I was looking in a FACEFULL mag and saw the nicest gear in the world!(grind) Some random kid was wearing the 06 urban night grind jersey,urban pants, and gloves. I was almost crying when i saw these. The next day I went and bought them and played the same day. Dang, these things rock! I could slide half a quarter of the field(it was pretty small though). The quality is amazing. Once i was done playing for 6 hours I got home and washed them and they looked brand new still! I was amazed and so was everyone eles when they saw me come up and bunker them:P. Well if you get these get the whole grind pants,gloves,and jersey. You wont regret it!
Conclusion:
These are the best pants ever... GET THEM!!!
