Pants

This garment is fitted with impact protectors for the knees. The foam pads present in hip armour pockets were fillers and not tested as they were not considered impact protectors and would provide limited, if any, energy absorption. Adding hip impact protectors would improve the protection levels of this garment.

Velcro is located in the inner upper legs to allow airflow movement through the garment.

This garment has a removable thermal liner and water-resistant liner. The breathability rating above was achieved with the thermal and water-resistant liners removed. When tested with the water-resistant liner installed, the breathability rating reduced to half a star.
