Girls' Pants

Girls’ softball/baseball pants are cut with more room through the hips and seat and a narrower waist, so they fit better and stay in place when she squats, runs and slides. Boys’ baseball pants often gape at the waist or feel tight at the hips on girls.

Yes. Girls’ pants work for both softball and baseball, and the fit is designed for her body, whatever sport she plays. Just make sure the colour and style match her team’s uniform.

Girls’ pants are usually sized from youth XS to XL. Height, hip and waist measurements matter more than age, so check each brand’s size chart. When she’s between sizes, size up for comfort when sliding and catching.

Yes, especially for girls learning to slide. Padded pants, like the Mizuno Girl’s Belted Padded Pant, have built-in padding on the hips and thighs to protect against bruises and scrapes, so she doesn’t need separate sliding shorts. With regular pants, add a pair of girls’ sliding shorts.

Elastic-waist pants, like the Easton Zone Girl’s Elastic Pants, are easy to put on and don’t need a belt, ideal for younger players. As she moves into competitive softball or baseball, belted game pants like the Under Armour Utility Girls or Nike Vapor Select 2 offer a more fitted, team-uniform look.

Once she outgrows girls’ XL, or if girls’ sizes feel short in the leg or rise, she can move to women’s softball and baseball pants, starting with women’s XS or S. Many teen players switch around ages 12 to 14.
