Im trying 1 last idea to get a pair of pants to fit my tall height and small waist. Someone suggested a small girdle and med shell. Ive never used a girdle/shell combo so wanted some opinions and thoughts about them versus pants. Pros/cons/preferences

9k girdle would be great for you because you are able to adjust the height of the legs and the overall fit very well. I am a fan of pants but i also own a 9k girdle and love it

There's a size small 9k girdle up on eBay right now I think.

I suggested that!
I think it's a great and the best option not only does it solve your issue you run into but Girdles are also lighter and a lot more mobile you do lose some protection but it is more than enough still an that's why it's the most popular choice in the NHL. Aside from that if you're a person that likes to change colors or so you can always skate with the same pants feel while changing out shells, always feel and play the same but don't always have to look the same. Shells are also cheaper than pants and have a lot more variety to them. All of that Bieng said alot of people hear like the 9k girdle but I like the Bauer totalone girdle, bauer also offers an X:60 girdle that fits cery similar to pants but has the girdle benifits, warrior also makes a good girdle and so does CCM I actually find the 9k to be the worst one
