I have been using these for about two months now and couldn’t be happier with my purchase.
The pads are enclosed in a heavy sock-like material which breathes very well. They slip on with little effort and are taken off with a bit more effort; I don’t like equipment that feels like you will break or tear it by pulling too hard trying to take it off- no worries with this product.
The pads are nice and thick without being too thick. There is plenty padding to keep from breaking your shins, but not so much that you have no feedback.
For a point of reference: I do not spar with these- I use them for bag work (Heavy bag- 100 lbs). Would I feel confident using these in sparring? Absolutely (I am just not sparring right now).
I am picky enough about my equipment that I don’t give 5 stars lightly – I honestly could find no fault with these.

These shin guards are fantastic for the price! The only thing I have to complain about, and it isnt a big deal, is just that they are kind of a pain to take off, but nothing serious. Good buy for sure.

This product is great for anyone looking for low-priced shin pads. They can withstand kicks pretty well, but if you want full protection, you shouldn’t be kickboxing anyway. Great for sparring and mat game.
