Tanden Padded Impact Shorts for Snowboarding and Skating, Medium, 0.7-inch EVA Hip & Tailbone Protection

Tanden Padded Impact Shorts are compression-style protective shorts with integrated high-rebound EVA pads that shield hips, tailbone and thighs during snowboarding, skating, skiing and other action sports.

These shorts combine molded 3D EVA padding and a breathable, milk-silk fabric to deliver wear-anywhere protection without restricting movement. Designed to be worn under or over outer layers, they aim to absorb impact from falls while staying comfortable through long sessions on the mountain or at the skate park. The shorts offer adjustable fit, quick-dry performance, and construction meant to hold pads in place through repeated use.

How do these shorts protect me during falls?

The shorts use 0.7-inch high-rebound EVA pads positioned over the hips, tailbone and thighs to disperse and reduce impact forces. The 3D-shaped pads are contoured to match body curves so they stay in position when you move, increasing coverage where you need it most.

• Molded 3D EVA pads at hips, tailbone and thighs for multi-point protection.
• 0.7-inch thickness for energy absorption without bulkiness.
• Contoured shapes that follow anatomy to reduce pad shifting.

Will they stay comfortable during long sessions or sweat-inducing activity?

Yes — soft milk-silk fabric provides a smooth, breathable next-to-skin layer and wicks moisture to help you stay drier. The hip pads incorporate breathable mesh channels so trapped heat escapes and sweat evaporates faster than with non-vented pads.

• Milk-silk knit feels soft and reduces chafing under gear.
• Quick-dry construction to limit dampness during exertion.
• Perforated mesh in pad areas improves airflow and cooling.

How does sizing and fit work — can I wear them over pants?

These impact shorts come with an elastic waistband and a hook-and-loop closure to fine-tune waist fit; wear them beneath outer layers for a streamlined profile or over lightweight pants if you prefer visible protection. They’re available in sizes XS through L, covering kids through adults, and the flexible fabric adapts to different body shapes.

• Elastic waistband plus hook-and-loop fastening for secure fit.
• Designed to be worn under or outside of pants depending on preference.
• Size range suitable for youth, men and women — check size chart for best fit.

Are these durable enough for repeated use and rough sports?

Construction focuses on long-term durability: reinforced seams hold the pads in their pockets and resist abrasion during falls or repeated wear. Quality stitching reduces the chance of pad displacement, extending the service life of the shorts even with frequent action-sport use.

• Reinforced sewing keeps pads secured in designated positions.
• Abrasion-resistant stitching enhances longevity for outdoor use.
• Pads designed to maintain shape and rebound after repeated impacts.

Who is this for: The Tanden Padded Impact Shorts are aimed at riders, skaters and athletes who want discreet, effective protection during falls — snowboarders, skiers, skateboarders, roller-sport participants, mountain bikers and ice skaters will benefit. They suit anyone who needs lightweight, breathable padding that stays in place whether worn under base layers or over slim outerwear, from youth learners to experienced athletes seeking extra confidence on the slopes or in the park.
