i appreciate how they are not bulky, can wear under my uniform pants and how they don’t bunch up behind the knee due to the design being created for sliding in baseball. they are easy to slide down and utilize for more protection on your lower shin bone. (when not wearing up higher to protect my knees) the 3/8” padding is just enough to make thorns and needles not easily penetrate my knees while crawling around cleaning up garden beds (mulch/plant/tree)
For the price, overrated. But baseball team wants them. They willing to pay.
