Anybody got any real world experience of these ?

How did they size up ( is the chart accurate ?)

and most important for me do they stay put on your legs ( don't ride down )

It's a fair bit of money so thought I would get as much info as possible before buying

Cheers

I've got some and I like them for uplifts. Too hot and restrictive to pedal in them all day for me. Much prefer the Fox launch for days on the trails.

Got an older model, sizing was spot on, from CRC super cheap. They've only slipped down under DH trousers where they were "dragged" down by some vigorous pedalling! On my third set of body armour due to being underwhelmed and these are the only set of knee pads I've had and stil happy!

Interesting As I want them for the trails really and I already use Fox Launch, but they do tend to ride down my legs.

cheers for the replies 🙂

I also got a cheap pair from CRC, sizing is good and they stay put.
Warmer than previous 661 Evos. They do feel more substantial though.

I like the fact you can put them on without taking off your shoes, good for big days out/hike a bike.
