I bought these shinguards after seeing the price and some good reviews on them, and I’m not disappointed in the slightest, they’ve proven to be very comfortable, lightweight and protective (especially while checking kicks for something so thin). Yet, with every positive there is a negative and unfortunately after around 2 or 3 uses the material started to fray around the stitching and the velcro strap at the top, still completely usable though after using them for the past 3 months around 4 times a week! Another downfall I have to mention though is that they are prone to damage while taking them off, due to most of the time of using them I have been sweating it’s been difficult to get off and sometimes has Gad adversary effects on the shinguards. But In essence, I would definitely invest in these due to the price being so well matched with the product you get, whereas if you’re an experienced striker and looking to get another pair, I would look more towards a higher quality guard!
