I do it pretty much the same way. But I have Bauer spandex with the Velcro tabs and padded knees. Plus I use tight spandex bike shorts under them and a Warrior jock over the top. Plus I wear socks to protect my pads. The garter is essential so your knee pads stay in place.
1 Question about putting on the socks over the knee pads and using the velcro....what happens if you have team "issued" socks and they don't have velcro tabs on them or if you don't wear a jock with velcro on it?? Just curious as how to get the socks to stay up if the garter belt is used for the knee pads....

Good stuff man!
Thanks! This is very useful I’m a new goalie and I’m trying to find all the equipment I need.
Can you make a video on the neck area for this as well? I've gotten hit in the neck twice in the last few practices. Thanks a lot.
Yes! Check out the second video in this series that covers neck protection.
This is really useful thanks
i use tape to hold up my knee pads and then i use the garter belt for my socks, personally i don't use a cupshorts
Ok those knee pads are dope
Do you get too hot with pants, two cups and hockey socks? I overheat too
Much in net.
How do you size hockey socks as a goalie? I'm 5'11 and wear size 9 shoes (Size 8 skates).

you dont need a velcro tab for the socks, you can just put the socks on the velcro without a tab and it works just fine.
How do you keep your hockey socks from riding up at the bottom?
No one home?
