The OBO Smarty Pants are lightweight field hockey goalkeeper pants made for beginner, school and developing keepers who need practical upper-leg protection without bulky movement restriction. Designed as part of OBO’s youth goalkeeper protection range, these Smarty Pants use dual-density closed-cell foam and a hard-wearing polyester outer to help protect the upper legs while keeping the goalkeeper comfortable and mobile.
