HELP: Need Football Pants ASAP

[sabad66]

Hey guys, I need to find some football pants/leggings/whatever-they-are-called that look like this:



New or used doesn't matter, I just need to know where to get them. Even if you know where to get silver pants I can put some tape or something to make them look like those.

I need them for tomorrow night so any help is appreciated!

Thanks

Phone up a highschool that has a team, they can probably hook you up. Assuming that you've already phoned the usual sports supply stores....

skyline sports, i think thats what its called, if you are heading north on mcleod (sp?) and take a right at the intersection at chinook (60 something ave) and the go straight until you are in a parking lot its at the south end of the business park

USED nut huggers?

as already mentioned, skyline sports supplies most of Calgary's highschool football teams and would be your best bet. Buying one pair brand new might be pricey depending on what you need it for though. Those pants are worn over a girdle in games as well so its not like a used pair would be like getting used underwear.

Do they have to silver? I have a shitload of completely black ones. They are also not even close to one size fits all so you might want to say what size you are generally.

not everyone uses a girdle...

unless your playing pop warner with barely to no contact, or a punter/kicker, you do because it holds the thigh pads

Yeah I need it to be silver...pretty much there's this "costume party" and I figure i'd be Tony Romo. I'll check that place out tomorrow...hopefully they have silver! Thanks so much guys.

For Team Skyline.. good stuff there.. if your just using this for a costume party.. it might be a little pricey

What are you talking about? The ones we wore in high school had pockets sewn into the lining and the thigh, hip & knee guards/pads just sat in there.

either that was a long time ago or your high school must have been really ghetto because I've played for a few teams at different age levels as well as camps and everyone has always had girdles

who knows maybe I lucked out

nope i played football for a good decade and always had a girdle thank god because the actually pants rode up so high my knee pads would have been acting as thigh pads, the only pocket in the pants was for the knee pads

'88, '89, '90

I guess that's a while ago now. The school got new pants every second year and both were the same. I never had an problems with them riding up though. They always stayed in the right place.

I went to skyline sports today and they had everything I needed, picked up pants, thigh pads, socks, belt and wristbands. Total was 60 bucks which isn't too bad I guess...most costumes are around that anyways. Thanks guys
