@donaldleider7382 Год назад

I remember wearing the Cooperalls for one season of junior hockey. To a man we hated them. We felt like they cut down your range of motion while skating, they were to hot because they didn’t allow body heat to dissipate so your legs and equipment would be soaked with sweat. And if you fell at a high rate of speed you kept skidding down the ice a good way to get injured. We also thought they looked bush league, like you were wearing sweatpants!

@aberamagold7509 Год назад

They made Jr hockey almost unwatchable. No matter how good the player's/team's/game were the look of those things ruined it because it just didn't look like hockey. Who did you play for? I watched a lot of Jr hockey in the 80's mostly at Copps Coliseum on Hamilton.

@shoknifeman2mikado135 Год назад

BINGO

@netropolis Год назад

The padded girdle was great! The pants themselves, were fine as long as you didn't fall. The pants turned you into a bullet with NO way to stop when sliding on the ice. The regular Hockey-Socks grab at the ice ESPECIALLY when wet (from sweat, melted ice from regular play) This causes friction which slows you when you are sliding. The nylon of the Cooperalls - ZOOM ZOOM right into the boards. I 100% get the nostalgia though!

@AP-zw6ql Год назад

I had a pair of Cooperalls and the girdle was awesome. For me, I felt the full length legs restricted my stride a bit so I ended up cutting the legs off at the knees and turning them into more traditional breezers. My parents were pretty pissed at me for that since they had spent a fair chunk of money buying them only for me to hack them up.

@joeybagadonuts5774 Год назад

Totally agree! I had Cooperalls for at least two years (11-12 years old) and that girdle was awesome as a little kid. But you're right, not having those old cotton socks to slow you down was quite dangerous.

@willrobinson1671 Год назад

The girdle was great! Way better protection than the traditional pants had at the time. The long pants were a different story. They didn't breathe, they were hot. I only wore them one year, in Peewee, so I didn't skate fast enough to make them dangerous crashing into the boards.

@sid7088 Год назад

I had them and thought they were great. I never had a problem with sliding, a blade to the ice and I'd bounce back up, no problem, just getting dressed faster was good enough for me though.

@Brocuzgodlocdunfamdogson Год назад

I wore sweatpants over the girdle for a season. I liked it, but the next team I joined bought everyone matching Cooperall shells (short ones, not the pants). They were kinda dope, blue with a white stripe down the side with 3 red stars a la Washington Caps.

@oscarwinner2034 Год назад

The Flyers wore the long pants for two seasons. The first season the pants had the stripes down the side. The next year they switched jersey designs and the pants were solid black with just a Flyers logo above the ankle. Thus the pants they will wear now are a combination of those two designs.

@thefearlessbros Год назад

This reminded me that my dad said he used to have cooperalls playing minor hockey in the mid-80s. To me, they look like the pants a coach wears in practice.

@BudSchnelker Год назад

They continued to be used in my youth leagues throughout the 80's. I had the girdle, but used pad-less shorts to wear over them, which allowed the traditional sock look. I love the girdle, very comfortable and protective.

@tanderson6442 Год назад

I loved my cooperalls when I was a kid, easy to put on was the selling point when I was 10 or 11. Rocked a protec helmet as well. The 80’s were awesome!!

@marcanthonybattenberg7636 Год назад

A big part of the NHL banning them was safety concerns. When players would fall the cooperalls would cause them to slide further and faster resulting in injuries

@tomservo5607 Год назад

Correct, and from what I’ve read the Flyers are wearing the new Cooperalls during warm-ups only and will not wear them during games.

@mdipltd7404 Год назад

They did change the material of the shell from nylon to a more abrasive, less slippery feel.

@evermarc Год назад

I remember when the Flyers wore them in the 80's . I personally tought it was a nice upgrade and more modern in style . I really liked them !! 🌞

@bobdobalina8910 Год назад

Philadelphia Flyers, after all these years, they are still my team. When I was growing up, I remember the pants, and I got my parents to buy a pair for me. I wore 'em and played with them. I really liked them for the few years I had them. I can remember those that wore them said they liked 'em as well to a T.

@matthewmartin5763 Год назад

I spent most of youth, in the 90's, playing street hockey with our city league. I'm from TX, so there wasn't much in the way of ice hockey available. My mom couldn't afford ice hockey fees anyways. Most of us wore something analogous to these pants. They were nylon/polyester which was breathable in this TX heat, and I thought I looked super cool too. lol Unlike the stockings, which I tried out a few times. I had a pair of the padded shorts that came up past the waist, but I only wore those while playing goalie. It was hard to find equipment that fit just right. I miss the good old days.

@jeffbenninger8663 Год назад

I wore them for several years. Never felt like a hockey player in them. Eventually, they offered short pants to go with the girdle. Super comfortable, but there were definitely places that a puck would leave a mark !

@a47mlb Год назад

I had the cooperall girdle and wore them with socks and a short shell pant. Growing up in MN playing at primarily outdoor rinks, they kept you quite warm. I loved them. I just switched over to a girdle from ‘breezers’ because I loved the cooperall girdle so much.

@yeltsin6817 Год назад

I loved the cooper all system Prior to wearing them I used to bruise my hip bones if I ever fell on them. The typical hockey pants back then sort of were away from your body so the padding would be all over the place. Cooperalls kept all the padding in the proper places etc. I still rmember falling on my hip and not bruising my hip bone. It was amazing I believe I heard that the one year that the Flyers wore them they did not have any hip injuries that year. The biggest issue I think was the puck would get lost in the pant colours if a scramble in fro by if the net or if guys on the ice on top. Couldn’t tell where the puck was. Hockey pants now are way better and held tighter against the body

@bobapep20 Год назад

This is pretty much what everyone wore for roller hockey at our little dek hockey rink in Sinking Spring Pennsylvania. I would say from early 90’s on.

@banjoplayingbison2275 Год назад

Frankly I haven’t heard of Cooperall’s until recently, but the look of them seems kind of nostalgic for me just because they look similar to how I would dress while playing roller street hockey growing up (a Hockey Jersey paired with Sweat/Athletic pants)

@russellpurdy105 Год назад

Growing up in the 80's I wore these with two different teams 4 different seasons. First team had the plastic type overpants, slid all over the place. The second had a nylon type overpants, these weren't so bad. The following year played with the short pants over the girdle and socks. The girdle was awesome with short pants, much more protective than the pull up short pants of those years. There was literally no ass protection in the pull up shorts save a skinny piece of plastic than ran up your crack and spine. Giving a guy a whack with the flat part of your stick blade on their ass cheek was all the rage until the Cooperall girdle came along

@daveblock4061 Год назад

I still have them! The tight girdle was much better than the loose sloppy bulky pants. The weird part was having to wear a full leg undergarment to tape on your shin pads. I wore them for 20 years or so.

@richardstetson8221 Год назад

By the time I was 17 in the year 2000 everyone was wearing a girdle with a shell probably even a couple years before that definitely a lot more comfortable than the bulky pants

@KOZMOGRAFX Год назад

I bought Cooperals when I started playing hockey as a young adult in 1984... at the time, it seemed like a sensible upgrade from the cumbersome old girdle/sock combo, where you'd see old guys sitting on the bench with bare thighs visible when their old hockey pants rode up (which looked really stupid...and cold... to me). I felt FAST, and I don't remember ever sledding across the ice when I fell. However, eventually, it started to bother me whenever I saw players wearing Cooperals that were too short... I guess it reminded me too much of school kids who got bullied for wearing jeans that didn't reach their shoes. "Flood's over", the mean kids would say. After a few years, I switched to a short shell and put velcro on the bottom of my girdle to hold my hockey socks up. So yeah, I'm in the camp that believes traditional hockey socks and pants just look better.

I rocked the sweat pants over the girdle for a season. I actually kinda liked it. They bought us the short Cooperall shells (Washington Caps style, with the stars down the side) on my next team though, so that came to an end.

@donluego9448 Год назад

From what I can remember one of the reasons they banned Cooperalls was they made it difficult for the gold tender to pick up sight of the puck.

@Torgo1969 Год назад

4:00 Warmer? When I played intramurals and gym class in college, I was sweating enough on the ice with traditional gear and I didn't need any more warmth. Quite the opposite. But then I was between the pipes so I'm a weird goalie in general.

@maxmartin2763 Год назад

Black Cooperalls were a nightmare for us goaltenders. We couldn't see point shots 2 to 3 feet off the ice. The Boston Bruins had to wear white socks with their road black jerseys for the same reason so who thought black/dark color Cooperalls were ever going to be accepted? And Cooper GAVE my Jr A team and every other Jr A team in Western Canada Cooperalls to promote sales to parents of kids in each Jr A market. If you fell at any speed, Cooperalls were like sling-shots. Guys hit the boards without any ice, uniform friction. They were a dangerous FAD!

@shrimpflea Год назад

I think roller hockey has made them more acceptable too. But the Flyers just wore them in warm ups. They didn't play the game in them.

@hockeyalley1 Год назад

I wore the Cooperalls when I was in Peewee hockey. I also had Flak pants which had the zippers you can switch to shorts and had air pockets in the padding near the kidney area.

@michaelslader9530 Год назад

I had cooperalls back in the day. I used them for half a season. They seemed a little more restricting than regular pants and slew me down so I ditched them

@scottthompson3493 Год назад

The cooperation girdle itself was incredible, very comfortable protected you well because it was snug along your hips and thighs.

@ffejpsycho Год назад

I remember wearing 'Cooperalls' when I was younger and first started playing Hockey in "Year One - Youth Development" in 1985/86, and either my first, or both years of "Tyke - 1986/87"... However, even by "Novice - 1988/89" Cooperalls had become equipment non-grata, and nobody would be caught dead on the ice in them lest they attract the attention and subsequent inherent cruelty that team sports dressing rooms (at least in the 80's when I was a wee lad) seem to inspire in our wee youngsters... haha

@1bert719 Год назад

Cooperalls are actually a logical evolution of hockey uniforms. If they can be made to create more friction I could see them returning as inline hockey has used them for years. Much of the initial pushback came from traditional fans dislike for them (myself included) as they do look odd. Much like the sleeveless all in one football kit adopted (and banned) by the Cameroon national team. Practical but weird and slightly off putting to watch. In the French Canadian TV series "He shoots! He scores" the fictional minor league Three Rivers Dragons wore these too. 😊

@rageinthekage4247 Год назад

I liked them. I played defence and goalie alternately. I wore the Cooperall goalie body armour when on defence, because I blocked a lot of shots. Cooperall was, in my opinion better.

@junkyardjim Год назад

Nice! Soo Greyhound footage!

@asphotographics Год назад

I liked my Cooperalls when I was a kid. They were very comfy and I liked how the girdle pads fit. Even after the long pant shell went away I swear I still had the liner with a separate short pant cover. Was that a thing? It is in my mind. Maybe one reason fans are more accepting now is because a lot of them once played in Cooperalls briefly in the 80s and see some of the benefits. Also, if chrome and gold helmets are acceptable, Cooperalls should be no problem. But no white skates, okay!

@jonmendelson1104 Год назад

@stop736 Год назад

I know for me as a goalie, I still have old Cooper girdles with all the pads still in great shape. I wear them under an almost no padding pair of regular goalie hockey “pants” (shorts) from Vaughn that I had custom made. They actually based the design on the old Vaughn Vision 3500 pants that have a goalie specific girdle and pant’s system and they’re awesome! It’s a design from the 90’s they had. Obviously using a girdle and that stuff is an older tech. But it’s still really perfect for me at least.

@derekcurrie8377 Год назад

@jinks67 Год назад

Playing minor hockey in the 90s we had 1 guy who wore those. Pretty sure it was 92. Probably unrelated but: He was also the most awkward looking skater you've ever seen, almost running motion and making an awful chopping sound. In wind sprints he was one of the fastest guys though.... Good memories, thanks for the vid.

@joelbuhler3974 Год назад

When I was a kid, some of the cool kids had them, but we were too poor, and had hand me down equipment... We all wanted them, but only about 10% of the kids had them... looking back, they seem so odd.

@massivecumshot Год назад

Hockey pants breathe - Cooperalls don't. They create an oven-like condition in the groin and are like a bakery for yeast infections. Also, the 'girdle" didn't have any hard plastic and falling on your tailbone hurt like hell.

Today's fans are nothing like the old-school hockey fans of the early 80's. The NHL has made it its mission to buck traditional ideals in the sport. The modern fan has no issues with shuffling uniform ideas. In fact, the modern fan is into dropping lots of money on new jerseys, third-jerseys, retro-jerseys, etc. Ditching the socks-look means nothing to the modern NHL fan.

The girdle was a great idea, ahead of its time. The pants were an abomination. The old cotton socks would grip the ice when you fell, the pants were the opposite, slicker than snot. Then taping your shin pads looked really dumb with the black pants. IMHO, they made players look slow and stupid, much like when MLB allowed pants for ballplayers. Shorts and socks give a better sense of motion and athleticism. Good riddance to the Cooperall!
