The Bauer Supreme Fuse Hockey Pants are the elite-level pants released from Bauer as part of their 2026 protective line. The gear is designed to offer high-level protection against impacts in all directions, while also allowing for lots of room for mobility. These pants are designed with a CURV Composite spine protector, 840D nylon outer shell, and a wrap around belt with a cinching closure to keep the protection in place.

External Material

The Bauer Supreme Fuse pants are constructed using a durable pro-level 840D nylon material, ensuring long-lasting performance and protection. This robust external material offers excellent resistance against wear and tear, ensuring enhanced durability during intense gameplay. In addition, the pants feature strategically placed mesh panels throughout, promoting optimal airflow and aeration. This design helps to keep players cool and comfortable by allowing ventilation and efficient moisture management. The added stretch zones promote mobility and natural movements.

Thigh Protection

The thighs are protected with a combination of PE and HD Foam, which provides reliable impact resistance and cushioning to safeguard the thigh area during gameplay. The thigh protection is also removable for ease of embellishment and customization.

Hip & Kidney Protection

The kidney protection features a segmented design, providing flexibility and a contoured fit to adapt to the player’s movements, and the forward flex break in the kidney area allows for an increased range of motion without compromising on protection. The hips are protected with an Aerolite 2.0 hip guard. This is a continued enhancement that helps keep the hip area both lightweight and protected. Aerolite is Bauer’s lightest foam available, with tech that repels both impact and water. The water aversion helps keep the padding from becoming waterlogged and heavy.

Spine Protection

The Bauer Fuse hockey pants feature independent spine protection, providing a range of motion without compromising safety. This design allows players to move freely while maintaining adequate coverage and support. The spine itself is made with CURV Composite, a lightweight and durable material that offers excellent impact resistance.

Belt/Lace Closure

These pants are designed with a convenient wrap-around belt with a cinching closure, and a side release buckle system, which is a design that allows for easy and quick adjustments, allowing for a secure and comfortable fit. With the side release buckles, players can pull the straps to tighten the pants, and then release the pressure by pulling on the buckles.

Leg Zippers & Adjustment

A +1” extension on the pants can be accessed through a zipper opening near the waist. While also including a leg opening zipper at the bottom, it allows for easy adjustment and fit customization.

Liner

The inside of the pants are designed with Bauer’s Thermocore Zero liner, specifically designed to manage sweat and odors, ensuring a fresh feel throughout the entire game. It is not only designed to wick away moisture, but it also regulates temperature within the pads, keeping you nice and cool.
