Skateboard Impact Shorts

Skate Securely with Impact Shorts

Impact shorts serve as protection for your hips, tailbone, thighs, and buttocks. While they resemble the length of regular shorts, these come with padding strategically placed to cushion falls. When worn beneath your clothes, they alleviate next-day discomfort and guard against severe injuries.

These impact pants are highly recommended for novice skaters, though they’re beneficial for any skating where falls on your hips or buttocks might occur, like ramp skating. Skateboard impact shorts are adaptable and suitable for other action sports, including inline skating and stunt scootering.

Choose Between Rigid or Soft Pads for Your Comfort

Padded shorts offer a variety of styles and designs for your selection. Rigid pads come with robust padding and strong EVA foam, ensuring maximum protection against tough impacts. Thinner pads offer more flexibility but provide less protection.

Additionally, we know an intense skate session can feel like a strenuous workout. Therefore, many brands craft their shorts to be breathable and feature moisture-wicking properties.

While padded pants are crucial, they are only one piece of the protective gear necessary for skating. For head safety while skateboarding, explore our collection of Skateboard Helmets.
