“I haven't thankfully had to test out how much protection these pads give but compared to the usual type of f hard shell external pads, these are way more comfortable and the padding insert seems that it would take a lot of the shock in a fall.
The main reason I got these was because of the zip which makes it much easier to put on and take off. Most of the time you already have your shoes on so with these, you don't have to struggle pulling them over your shoe or having to take your shoes off. I figured, if they are easier and more comfortable to use, I'm more likely to use them and that's a good thing.”
