Good pads for the price
The legs sleeve that come with the pads definitely help keep the pads in place and they rarely ever slide down. Decent amount of support and great protection for the price. I bought these for riding MX but will decently be using them for snowmobiling too.

pant wrecker!
I have had these for a while. I do like the way they fit, and feel...But, the velcro is very poor quality, and fails rather quickly. The inside hinges have ruined evert single pair of pants I have, including my Klims!!! I dont buy cheap pants, and most of my pants have holes on the inside of the knees after only one day of riding. I have tried rounding, and smoothing the edges of the hinges with a dremal tool. I have put layers of gorilla tape over the hinges, and nothing works!!! Wvery pair of pants, and eventually graphics are ruined!!! These guards overall are VERY expensive, and frustrating.

Lots of protection but pricey
I bought these after looping my bike on a hill and coming down on the peg with my knee. I found them expensive but they provide a lot of protection and mobility. My injured knee felt a little more stable as well because u can strap them on as tight as you want.

Good solid knee pad with good flexibility
Looped my bike on a steep hill and came down hard on one of my pegs and after missing a couple of weekends decided to invest in some good knee guards. I was after the $79 Acerbis model but they were out of stock so I bought these at double the price. Had a little buyer's remorse because of the price but am happy with them now. They were stiff at first and they hurt my banged up knee but now that they are broken in and my knee has fully healed they have loosened up and feel great. I give them a 5 for quality but a 3 for price - over all rating 4.

Very comfortable and very protective!
I bought these to replace my old knee shin guards, they stay in place and don’t move while riding, no uncomfortable pinch points and provide excellent protection

Excellent for snomobiling
Purchased these about a month ago and they have worked great for me, they have help up well thru abuse. They tuck nicely into my Klim snowmobile boots so they do not slide down during the day. I strap them on in the morning and I don't take them off until I come home. They are very comfortable and provide a decent amount of support as well as excellent protection

Good idea
Bought a set of these to try after reading a few reviews. There nice and work well to protect knee and shin and comfortable for most part. Theye are not perfect and even after breaking them in they do slide down at times making them kink at the knee. Also if you have large knees they don't fit well. May mod the foam some and see you that goes. Over all they are good but still not worth the extra cost of 25.00 knee gourds.
