Hockey Pants for Forwards

Chris,

I believe these are hockey pants. I've attached a scan from the 1904-1905 Spalding Fall and Winter catalog showing padded shorts as hockey pants especially for forwards. They sold the same shorts as padded basketball shorts as well, but your pair has reeds, which lead me to believe that they have to be hockey.
