Overview
The True Catalyst 5X6 Hockey Pants deliver reliable protection and comfort for competitive and recreational players in a streamlined design inspired by Tackla's heritage in protective equipment.
Polypropylene and PE foam protection provides lightweight impact coverage throughout key areas, while True's Intelligent Body Protection (IBP) 3D technology reinforces the spine for added protection without unnecessary bulk. This construction gives players enhanced coverage while maintaining the mobility needed for comfortable movement.
An internal belt system works alongside a traditional skate lace closure to provide a secure, adjustable fit around the waist. Externally, a traditional nylon shell delivers the durability needed to withstand regular practices, games, and recreational use. With a Tackla-inspired design and True protective technology, the Catalyst 5X6 offers a straightforward combination of protection, comfort, and value.

Sizing Chart
| GENERAL ICE HOCKEY PANT SIZING GUIDELINES | |
|---|---|
| Measure the circumference of your waist just above the hips. Correspond this measurement to the sizing chart and cross-reference your height. You may overlap between hockey pant sizes, which in this case comes down to personal preference. The smaller size will fit closer to the body while the larger size will offer more volume and coverage. |
