Better than I expected
The product was more comfortable than I expected. Other reviews remark it as being not as comfortable as the CE level 1 version, I don’t have the CE 1 version to compare it with, but i found it unintrusive and hugged my pelvic bone quite well.

Additional Hip Protection
I've had hip replacement surgery and I was looking for more protection than the standard hip protectors that came with my Alpine Riding Jeans. These protectors offer improved protection and peace of mind. They are much stiffer and slightly thicker than the original protectors; however after a "break-in" period you do not notice anymore.

Oui mais...
Alors je voulais donner un peu plus de protection à mes Alpinestars Andes V3. J'ai cru que ces protections entreraient dans les pochettes existantes, mais non, ce n'est pas fait pour ça! Heureusement, elles sont vendues avec leur pochettes. J'ai donc fait un peu de couture et voilà, maintenant ça marche! J'ai dû mal lire une info quelque part. Heureux d'avoir pu les installer quand même.

Exactly as advertised
Just received my nucleon hip protectors for alpinestars missile leather pants. Fit is perfect, sizing guide was accurate. Hope to not test their durability but great added protection. Ordering was easy, shipping updates were prompt and accurate. Will definitely order from f9 again!

pas encore testé
Le problème avec les protections c'est qu'on ne veux pas vraiment les tester soi même..
Il semble mieux que la mousse d'origine de mes pantalon Alpinestars GP Pro.
La mousse d'origine ne vos même l'espace quel occupe..
Je vais savoir si c'est protection vos la peine le jour ou je vais me planté.
