I bought these from a different website but I wanted to support them here too. These are hands down the best knee guards I have ever used, and I've been wearing them for years. I've worn them at DH races, and on 40km cross country treks. They don't slip down in any crash, big or small, and they are super protective. They CAN sometimes get a bit uncomfortable when the straps dig in but it's easy enough to sort out a position/tightness that works for you. Both myself and my husband use these and I would recommend no other knee guard.

I was given these pads as a Christmas pressie and iam absolutely amazed at how comfortable , solid , lightweight and immovable these pads are . I previously owned some old Fox knee/shin pads that made riding an absolute chore . These new IXS Daggers fit me perfectly according to the size chart , are amazingly cool in plus 30 degree weather , stay put where they are meant be , dont rub , and after the first 30 minutes , felt like i was wearing no pads at all . Oh yeah and they are reasonably easy on the wallet too . Highly recommended . The graphics look killer and they look badass on your legs . They also have ample top shin protection for those pedal slips that we all know .

When your knees are running hotter, heavier and chunkier thank your downhill or enduro rig, you really need to consider some of your life choices.
If those life choices don't include listing these knee helmets - then I'm not sure what's wrong... But if your list DOES include them, well...at least we have identified the problem.

Threading your foot through the restricting channel of these knee sleeves, I felt like I was pulling on PVC pipes. With about as much bending comfort too.
I run a size XS in the TLD pull ons (the one most gravity riders tend to wear, you know the ones with extra length in the shin. Yeah, those ones.) And size wise, they are pretty good.
The SMALL in these a damn tight (which is not necessary by design due to the top and lower strap) and about as much fun as pulling off a pair of wet skin tight stretchy jeans at the end of the day.

Your knees will legit cook in these and there's no relief for the furnace building under the aesthetically appeasing exterior until you wrestle it off with the same gusto you would trying to pry a child's favourite toy from their death gripping clutch.

I want to like these. I tried to like these.

Will put them up for sale or keep then as a spare for mate dates
