  • Very well made and protective but run very small
These are very very well made and very protective. They do run very small tho. Im tall and lean and I typically wear size 31 or 32 pants and I ordered the medium which typically fits great but these were VERY tight...like could barely pull them up and cutting circulation off from legs tight lol. I returned them and ordered the large which I'm assuming will fit. I'm still giving them 5 stars despite the size issue just because I was so impressed with the protection level these will provide. Just make sure you order at least one size larger than normal ... show more

  • Well made protection
I am a bigger guy at 260. The xxl fit, butcthe waist is extremely small ( the rest of the shorts fit fine). They offer great hard inpact protection. They do fit and are well made.

  • Great protection but size up.
I have 41" hips at widest point and a 35" waist. The Large was almost impossible to get on but the XL fits perfect. The hard plastic padding on this model will likely provide better protection than the 1/8" thick padding other brands offer. The protection at the tail bone is the best of 5 different protective shorts I have tried on. ... show more

  • Ridiculously small sizing
Bought the biggest size available at the time (large). I was wearing 34 pants at the time and I'm not exactly a huge guy. These shorts were a massive squeeze to put on and I ended up pulling the waist and leg openings apart a little just to try and help hurt less from being squeezed so tight while riding. Shame because I really like the armor on these. I've been hitting the squat rack all winter and there's no chance I'm putting these on this summer. Guess I'll hand them off to the skinniest friend I can find. ... show more

  • Saved my butt, literally.
It must have been fate. I got these and on my very next ride a small tree fell in front of me and landed on the guardrail. It was sticking out across the road. I didn’t even have enough time to hit the breaks and it clotheslined me. It hit right on my chest. My bike kept going. I broke through the thing with my body. I first landed on my left knee directly, then kept sliding, contacting my hip, shoulder, elbow, and my head bounced a few times. I was wearing these shorts along with their shin/knee guards, the jacket, a helmet, as well as some gloves. I ended up with a few small bruises where the edges of the pads dug in from the pressure, and also a small cut on my ankle bone (I’m pissed about that because I didn’t put on my ankle guards). It’s a small cut though and you can see it in my picture. The bike went ahead and just flopped onto the rail up ahead. After I was done checking myself I just got on and rode home. Without this stuff I’m positive I would have been in the ER or dead from the head impact. The crazy thing is that aside from some scratches in the plastic, the pads are all still totally intact. ... show more

  • Good fit/good protection/ Poor Stitching
Product sizing is very good. I have a 34” waist and average leg size Large is perfect fit. Protection is very good as long as it stays attached over time. Bummed that stitching is so poor. Product had hard pad and soft pad coming undone(see photos). I had to hand stitch both before wearing. Quality control bad on this product. ... show more

  • Not comfortable for me
I was looking for hard hip protection for motorcycle BDR riding and tried these and some others, gave up, when I sat down the thy protector jammed into the hip protector and was very uncomfortable. It may be just my body. Had to settle for soft pads.

  • Alpinestars Road Shorts
A fairly well made piece of protective "armor" in case of being knocked off your bike or scooter, it should help protect you from a nasty case of "Road Rash." One thing I have found is to go a size larger than normal, I ordered the large and had a heck of a time getting them on, but I also found that like a new pair of shoes they stretch out and fit much better after a break in period. ... show more
