I actually love these pads. I've only needed them once, but I didn't suffer a scratch where they covered and they took the abuse w/out damage. They can be a bit warm in the summer, but worth the protection. Difficult to pull over calves, and I don't think mine are unusually large, but they stay put once on without cutting off your circulation, so I can't complain. Would absolutely recommend. I bought the L/XL size.
i would give it a 5 because the pads look and feel great, and do a great job of protecting ur body. however, they only come in 2 sizes, and my legs apparently fall juuuuust in between the two. i went with the larger one, but have to periodically adjust the upper strap during rides. not a big deal, but my concern is that ill fall and hit my knee just when the pads slipped a bit below the kneecap, definitely concerning.
Pros softshell padding is lightweight, full wraparound knee protection, shin protection
