I have the 09 LTD pants. They were really stiff when i first got them, but that should be expected; i mean it has been sitting on a shelf, or a warehouse. Play with them and wash them (i just rinse them off in the shower) and the feel like any other pants. I haven't had a problem with them not having liner on the inside; I wear shorts underneath them.

A few things i noticed were the waist Velcro bands. There's a gap in them where there is no fuzzy Velcro to secure them so you have to let the waist out or further in to secure them (or adjust higher or lower on the hip). I feel like the material below the knee pads is a bit long based on centering the knee pads on my knees.

Speaking of which i really enjoy the padding, tough construction and really makes it comfortable to slide or kneel without pads underneath.

I haven't used the zipper on the lower legs (its been cold here), but i see them coming in handy for ventilation between games in warmer weather.

Overall i'm very satisfied with them: nice features and durable construction. Try to find them in a store and try on different sizes. I think they are worth the cost and i'm a very value oriented person.

One of the best pairs of pants i've ever owned. They are light enough to avoid hindering performance, they look good, the part on the lower back really helps keep pod packs tight and who doesn't love a microfiber cloth in their pocket?

Great pants and by far my favorite out of any pair I've owned to date. Super comfortable and the kevlar reinforced knees can take a beating for multiple seasons. Velcro on the pants can get a little loose if you do not properly wash them.
