Pro-Tec Street Knee and Elbow Pad Set

Ive only been using the pads for 2 months and one of the straps is about to come off. Worked great for the one minor impact theyve had, but I have to replace them because of the poor construction of the fabric components.

58 about 185lbs and 41 years old..... these pads are pretty good for the money, Ive only used them once for about an hour and needed to adjust them once because they felt a little tight. I think these are going to work out well!

love these

Besides Rector, these are the original gold standard for protection. So far so good.

Just right for my 11 year old! Good quality skate pads.

This brand has a size chart but the actual pads dont even remotely match it. I ordered an XL set which they say will fit a 19 knee. My knee is 18, but the straps barely touched and it was way too tight even with them barely touching. It would have been a good fit for a 16 knee. I was also underwhelmed by the quality. The foam pieces inside were all folded over so they didnt conform well to the knee, like they werent even using a template to cut the foam or something. I thought theyd be better quality.

These are an excellent set of affordable, low impact pads that are great for those just getting in to roller sports, starting out with using pads, or wanting protection from ground level falls. However, if youre wanting protection from high impact situations such as knees slides or long falls to the elbows, then youll likely want to look for something with better protection. After roughly 4 months of hardcore use (7 hours a week minimum) skateboarding on ramps (between 4 and 12 ft tall), the knee pads have definitely stared to show signs of wear, with one pad having a snapped strap buckle (which is fixable with a little super glue but has broken more than once) and a cracked cap, and the other having rips exposing the liner. The liner is also compressed heavily towards the middle on both, and doesnt provide as good of protection as it did when it was new, but still works. I should point out that this is the result of heavy impacts at high speeds (knee sliding on a 10 ft vertical ramp, for example) so they will likely hold up pretty well if you plan on using them for less intense riding. The elbow pads have held up great, but admittedly havent taken nearly as much abuse as the knee pads. Theyve definitely help prevent some nasty swell-bow regardless. Both pads fit quite comfortably, but, like most pads, can ride down when sliding, so a set of gaskets or wearing tight clothing under neath them isnt a bad idea. Overall, I would easily recommend these to anyone look for a great set of light, comfortable pads to get started with. But, be prepared to replace these somewhere down the road, either with another set or something more heavy duty, such as 187 Killer Pad Pros.

My 12 year old daughter loves it. Fits perfect.

I purchased the knee pads less than two weeks ago. I have used them twice and fell one time while using them. They held up nicely! My complaint about these knee pads is that the strap just mysteriously fell off. So I can no longer use the knee pad as intended. I emailed the company through amazons contact info and received an email back saying they don’t warranty the product and that boarding is a rough sport so basically deal with the issue yourself. In my opinion owning these for such a little time and using them twice should be covered by the company I bought them from. Now they’re telling me to contact the manufacture. Wouldn’t recommend buying these to anyone that may have a problem with the product falling apart at some point due to situations out of your control.

Excellent
