I've used Storelli compression pants which can be fairly pricey and I've actually found that they have a tendency to ride up, exposing your hips and outer thigh area which ultimately cancels out the padding that is in place. That said, if you put a thinner compression short over them (like some of the basic under armor ones) to hold in place, the protection built in is very good. Otherwise I'm sure any other major brand would get the job done as well.

I would avoid goalie shorts unless you have a particular reason for them, because they are usually fairly lose and so even if the pads are good they aren't in nearly the right place when you actually have to make a save. The positive in this case would be the fabric will tear less quickly, so if that is something of interest to you then these are a good purchase as well.
