Please note I have not used these on a trail yet. But I did do a couple running slides and falls on carpet (so I can return them) - There are two plastic sections - the shin and the knee. The top of the shin plastic was painfully digging into my lower knee cap when I fell - through the foam, which is somewhat thin I think. But these are my first knee/shin guards, so I don't know from experience. I will probably return these and try out the Launch ones.
