Strengths:    good protection

Weaknesses:    not very comfortable, fit isn't great

Bottom Line:   
These pads straps that are too long for a "medium" fit. They tend to ride down throughout the day, leaving the fit worse. On top of that, the straps behind the knee get uncomfortable after a few hours.

This would be a good product if you are on a serious budget or if you were only gonna wear them for like an hour at a time. Otherwise, there are definitely better products out there.

Date Reviewed: June 8, 2009

Strengths:    Fit me well, comfortable, vent ok, stay in place, give enough clearance at ankle, cost

Weaknesses:    none yet, but its an early review

Bottom Line:   
Im strapped for cash so I got these. I figured something is better than nothing when it comes to losing skin. I used these downhilling at the local ski mountain and had a couple spills with them.
While riding I never knew they were on
While crashing they stayed in place and did what they are supposed to- protect my @ss!
They got a little hot while standing still, but vented well when riding down the trails. For the money, a good investment. Now I just have to see how they hold up. Gonna give 4 hot turds for these.

Date Reviewed: December 7, 2008

Strengths:    protects your knee and shins

Weaknesses:    the back of knee net mesh strap is loose. the straps could have more velcro so that you can make tighter.

Bottom Line:   
it works, feels comfortable, doesnt slip down, doesnt restrict leg movement. the behind leg strap kinda weak so i might just rip it off. overal i think its good investment to protect my self.
