Engineered as a high-performance, professional-tier upgrade, these technical crash pants are purpose-built for high-load, multi-sport execution. Whether you are navigating technical gravity trails, clearing concrete coping, or carving down alpine slopes, the Pro series provides critical mechanical defense. Designed with an ultra-low-profile silhouette, they slip seamlessly beneath your regular riding trousers, mountain bike shorts, or jeans, ensuring you maintain an absolute range of motion without the bulk of old-school hardshell pads.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe core structural advancement of the Pro series is the implementation of fully integrated, **fully waterproof REKD Energy Impact Foam**. This advanced protective material uses reactive, non-Newtonian molecule technology to deliver intelligent defense. Under normal riding conditions and pedaling cadences, the padding remains soft, pliable, and entirely flexible, molding naturally to the anatomy of your hips and thighs. However, upon sudden impact, the specialized molecules instantaneously lock together to form a highly rigid defensive shield that dissipates sharp force before it transfers to your joints. Because the advanced foam matrix is completely waterproof, it prevents sweat absorption and maintains its lightweight, high-energy impact properties in wet weather or deep snow conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstructed from a premium **one-piece Lycra chassis**, these impact shorts provide an unrestrictive, second-skin fit. By engineering a continuous, high-stretch textile form, REKD completely eliminates the overlapping interior seams and panels that cause painful skin pinching and restrictive binding underneath hard protection or heavy technical clothing. The advanced compression fabric conforms tightly to your musculature, actively encouraging blood flow while ensuring the protective zones stay perfectly anchored over your muscles. To keep up with continuous maintenance, the entire garment is **machine washable**, allowing you to easily refresh your base layer after demanding, dust-filled track days or intense park sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSold as a standalone protective under-short in a professional matte black colorway, this durable armor layer is finished with integrated REKD Energy branding. Built to withstand abusive impact cycles while keeping you cool and comfortable, these shorts are a vital addition to any active rider's safety gear collection.
