So I got an injury in the leg last season that affected my play for the rest of the season. Whats the most protective pants out there while still looking good?

First of all, you should probably go the pro stock route for padding. Reebok are good, especially 520's. I hear Tacklas are pretty good too. Maybe franchises w/ beefed up plastics if you're going the retail route.

I agree pro stock is the best route. But for retail I'd suggest the ones above.

Warrior Franchise and Tackla 5000's are great.
