First pair of elbow pads I've ever owned and I used them at the bike park the other day and I really believed they saved me big time. Maybe even a trip to the hospital because I landed on my elbows. They felt really well. Forgot that I was even wearing pads at times. They seemed to stay in place well. Would definitely buy again. Oh ya, after the crash they still looked good, no tears or anything.

Size M fits my 12 year old daughter comfortably. I’m gonna need a large and I’m 5’6” and avg build.

So size up. Quality looks great just wish they had some large in stock

Pads are solid and do their job. I live in Phoenix, AZ and the weather has been in triple digits for weeks and the pads don't sweat up the legs too bad. Only complaint is that they will slip down on rides and you have to keep pulling them up.

I purchased these elbow pads in combination with the Fox Shin Guards Knee Pads. I ordered a size S which I thought I needed according to the website measurements. However, after receiving, I ended up having to return for a M which still fit snug but more comfortable. I like these pads because they match the knee pads and have a sleek simple design as opposed to others. The only thing I dislike is that these have to slip on and off. I went with the knee pads because I could completely remove the pads to get them off and only ordered the elbow pads because they match. The knee pads have 3 velcro straps that allow you to completely remove the pad instead of slipping them on and off. It would have been great if these were designed the same way. After a pretty intense ride especially in the summer, it is difficult to slide these off when you are wet and sweaty. I already popped the seam binding around the cutout from tugging on these to get them off after a hot, humid and sweaty ride. For me the velcro straps also do not serve much of a purpose because the pads already fit snug.

According to the size chart I should be able to fit a small or medium. The medium size i got isn't even big enough to fit all the way over my elbow. Size up if you order these.
