Great in-depth review!
Thanks I tried 187 but the lack of articulation felt like a huge design flaw which no other reviews really addressed. You helped me find this solution thanks
Excellent. Yeah, all pads do have some elements which could be improved. It's a question of discovering what each individual finds the most comfortable.
@@SkateboardCalifornia you are also right on the extra-large, being a good size for adults, especially over the top of pants. I measured exactly in the center of the large range, but ended up getting extra large.
I got these pads at the end of last year but due to terrible Irish weather, this morning was my first time skating them. Really, really comfortable, but as I was climbing out of the bowl after a run, one of the caps caught the heel of my opposite foot and just popped right off - when I went to reattach it I found that it wasn't the velcro that came off. The velcro that was on the inside of the cap was still attached to the rest of the pad. The plastic cap came away by itself. The adhesive on the back of the velcro was still pretty sticky and the cap seems to have stuck back on ok... but not great for their first time out - and such a tiny little knock to cause it!
Same thing happened to me, about 2 weeks after I made this video! I snagged the cap on the coping as I was climbing out of a pool and the cap popped off. But, I will say, it was a little chilly. I think perhaps the glue on the velcro was just a bit less flexible in the cold.
I put the cap back on and had no issue since. If it ever happens again, perhaps replacing the velcro strips might help.
Your review is really good. Very informative and well thought, I really enjoyed watching. thank you very much!
You're welcome.
Thank you very much for the comment. I strive to give quality information, so it's nice when it is appreciated.
You have ended my long journey of decision making. The ProTec Pro's are amazing. Small, decent price , flexible and very good buildquality. I would try to put on a bigger Cap from another manufacturer.
Greetings from Germany (NRW)
I actually skated with a German couple last week, who were on a skate-vacation in California. Glad you found the video useful.
That's an awesome "in depth" review!
Thanks. I watched a lot of other reviews and tried to put in all the information others never include.
Thanks for the very clear and thorough review. It was very helpful and pretty certain I’ll be ordering a pair this week. Sizing is a concern though… according to the Pro-Tec chart, I should be getting a large, but as a 6’4”, 240 Lb adult man, I’d think XL would be a better fit. Can the XL ones you’re wearing be snugged up if you were wearing shorts?
You're welcome. Glad you liked it.
You're way bigger than me. Unless you have freakishly tiny legs, the Large pads would be way too small on you. Wearing jeans or shorts, most people still need the same size.
If you include the TSG Force and Smith Scabs in your comparison reviews, you'll probably have the most comprehensive review set of the recommended "pro" knee pads in the market. Just a thought.
Thank you. Yes, the Smith Scabs Elite II pads and the TSG Force 3 pads are also quite good, high-end pads. But that is about another $180 that I didn't want to spend. 😆
I thought for a long time whether to take these knee pads or not🤔 . Someone told me that they are good, someone said that they are not of the best quality, so to speak, and someone just said not to bother and take 187 killer pads. but as I looked at your review, I immediately realized that this is an ideal option for me. They are not as bulky as the killer knee pads and I like that the best so thanks a lot as no one has said anything about these knee pads before.
Awesome. I looked at a lot of kneepad review videos and to put it bluntly, all of them suck. So, I decided to take 4 of the top kneepads and make the kind of video I wish someone had created.
I'm glad it was useful for you.
Thank you.
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.
ah dang it i bought the 187 killer pads just 2 months before this video was released, i was debating between protec pros and the 187 pros but went with the 187s because more people left reviews about them and i was kinda urgent for it😢 now i think i should’ve gotten these instead as its way less bulky and the lame is more flexible than the ones on 187!! I wore my 187 pros for 5hrs a day for 5 days (it was for a camp) and becus of its design mainly for a bent leg, the kneepads were putting so much pressure under my kneecaps creating a bruise and hurts when youre walking in them
Ouch! Yeah, the 187 Killer Pads aren't bad, but I sure wouldn't want to wear them 5 hours a day for 5 days. That's a long time. I'm not surprised they were uncomfortable if you had them on for that long. Pro-Tec and ProDesigned are a lot more comfortable than 187. I've worn ProDesigned pads for about 3 or 4 hours with no issues.
Thanks ☺️
You're welcome.
