EASTON HOCKEY INTRODUCES STEALTH S19 PANT – THE FUTURE OF FLEXIBILITY
Innovative Hockey Pant Provides Optimum Protection, Mobility.
VAN NUYS, Calif. (October 26, 2009) – Easton Hockey, the designer and manufacturer of the No. 1 stick and glove in the NHL, today announced the launch of its Stealth S19 pant. The pants have been anatomically designed to allow maximum flexibility while protecting key areas.
The Forward Flex Design of the pants includes a segmented hip system for incredible range of motion of the torso area. The Forward Flex Spine Protector is also designed for maximum mobility, while also protecting the vulnerable lower-back area.
“These aren’t just pants, these are the future of hockey pants,” said Ned Goldsmith, Senior Vice President of Easton Hockey. “It’s imperative that players’ legs have a free range of motion. Some pants can stifle movement, ours move seamlessly with the player.”
In addition to the flex features, the S19 has super lightweight hybrid construction thigh guards and a 2-Way Belt System designed to improve stability without impeding mobility from the buckle.
The Stealth S19 pant will be available at major sporting goods retailers in March 2009.
