Customers like the fit of the shin guards. They mention that the velcro straps don't dig into their ankles, the cuffs don’t move around, and they are comfortable. The sizing chart was accurate, and the rdx pads stay on without any need of adjustment. They also say that sparring never hurts a lot when using these sand guards, and their snoots are not as sore. They feel the tasers are hard and offer great protection for the tops of feet.

Customers are mixed about the stability of the shin guard. Some mention that it looks good and does not slip out of place. The straps hold with no issues during drills, and the band keeps them from moving even with intense activity. However, others say that the velcro on these is poor and can scratch you or your training partner. The velco straps do seem just a tad cheap, but strong enough to hold up in sparring.

Customers are dissatisfied with the thickness of the shin guards. They mention that the padding is very thin, not safe or comfortable, and the guards are only a thin single layer. Some say that the contour is too flat and the product is not real leather, so it won't last as long.

"...I've had these for a couple months now, they are not super padded, but padded enough, which helps you when you're getting you kicks checked, it..." Read more

I am 5'10" with a 14.25" calf circumference and my dimension from floor to under my knee cap is 18 inches. Weight is 160lbs. I ordered the large size and they fit well. I am probably on boarder of the medium and large size since there is ample adjustment for larger calves. They are durable and hold up well. Against a larger or more advanced opponent you will feel it. But it is way better than going shin on shin. I attached their sizing sheet to hopefully give more info on better selection. I recommend throwing on a little tape on your achilles tendon where the strap rides across to prevent abrasion for those long sessions. Overall these are great.
